Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[naumanmumtaz]

A very bad news

After 72 working days when we involved the MP in our case and when he contacted the BHC for enquiring about my application, he came to know that my application is still in queue

And after that now BHC has informed to MP that they has assigned a ECO to work on my application after 74 working days

I think I will get RFC in the end of September or may be in october

oh my GOD

I think I will be mad

Sallam
I was also thinking to involve MP once my 60 days up on coming friday. I have son and his school will be starting in september and if dont get here by end of august he will be one year behind. Please keep me posted of your experience with BHC after MP's involvement.

Maybe you guys won't like me saying this, but it is becoming more and more and more difficult to for you to bring spouses over from Pakistan. You should try and discourage people from marrying someone in Pakistan, it is completely incorrect to assume that it's cheaper and more convenient. The VISA, ILR, flight tickets, nationalisation, legal aid etc soon amounts to ridiculous figures.

[king2be98]

What is a ECO? So confused

ECO = Entry Clearance Officer, the person who will decide whether your application is accepted or rejected.

[king2be98]

can you tell me where U got this from please thank you and can you tell me that can a person send 6 months for each job like full time n part time

Perhaps you should go on the UKBA site and read the different terms and the criteria you need to meet.

Under each article they have made specific references to figures. £18600 can either be met by a base annual salary or the combination of two or more jobs or even a base salary and guaranteed OT, the guaranteed would need to be on each payslip you provide, though they might not like the OT and reject you but later you'd get the VISA in court.

[king2be98]

why your visa was rejected before?what's the reason?

Because we attach 6 month payslips and they require 1 year as my husband have 2 jobs in uk

That is total and utter drivel, did you speak to anyone before you went and wasted an extra £800+ on re-applying?

If you give 3 months pay slips they ask for 6 months, if you give 6 months pay slips they ask for 12 months. What next, you give 12 months and they ask for 18 months?

You should have appealed, 6 months is more than adequate and if you meet the financial criteria, there's absolutely no reason the judge or even the ECM wouldn't have overturned.

If however 6 months of slips don't add up to give an indication you earn over the baseline annually, that's another matter altogether.

I can pray for you dear but it seems difficult because I applied on 23rd april and my application was in queue at BHC after 72 working days now the ECO has assigned on my case to work and it's 75th working day

Dear

It does not matter that british people take it as a public holday or anything else,the fact is this that we will collect our passport from Gerry and people who are working there are Pakistani not british and they will take holidays on Eid

But don't worry Gerry will be closed on Thursday and Friday

and after that unfortunately there will be a weekend

The VISA, ILR, flight tickets, nationalisation, legal aid etc soon amounts to ridiculous figures.

So you are saying if you like/love/ or see someone as your partner / your soul mate and he/she is from outside EU region , you should not marry them because of VISA fee , ILR fee , Flight tickets ?

it is not difficult , anyone who fulfills the criteria gets his/her partner in UK.
maybe sometime the case can take long time ( appeals ) but i am sure we can all go through it to be with that one special person we chose as our life partner.

Money is not everything.. funny u even counted flight tickets in a reason for not marrying someone from pakistan lol

[arsum1516]

its not even the collecting... ukba make the decision not gerrys...

so in essence they shud b wrking thru this week also..

I heard its all goreh eco... thurs n fri for eid right. so ystrday, today 2moro wheres d rfcs?

[abidabzhussain]

Gerry update

will be closed on Eid on Thursday and Friday , will start working on normal hours from Monday.

08 August Thursday Eid-ul-Fitr Day 1
09 August Friday Eid-ul-Fitr Day 2

BHC

has not published anything about holidays , but i guess they will be close on same days as well.. as they have Pakistani staff working with them who would be off on Thursday and Friday hence overseas staff will be given off too

After Eid

we can expect things to speed up , as working hours will be back to normal both in Dubai and Pakistan.

Gerry will also turn to full time working hours which were reduced in ramadan.

Best of luck you guys , IA we will all hear positive news soon

....

[abidabzhussain]

all this delay in settlement cases is worse cz of dubai bhc..

they did not work properly in ramadan cz of reduced hours and lots of holidays.


but now iA after Eid things should speed up.

As we involved the MP in our case he has informed us that BHC is now working on my application after 74 working days before that my application was in queue so how is it possible to get RFC in this week.
