Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

naCC · Post by **naCC** » Fri Aug 30, 2013 10:17 pm

Some Peoples just take the subsisting relationship requirement very lightly and infact its one of the most important bits for BHC Boojaz as they get so many fa-ke marriage applications , so just try to cover you back with wht ever you can send, to prove the marriage is genuine.

I sent
1) Lyca Talk call History (1 years)
2) About 12 Pictures
3) Nikka Nama with Angrezi translation and Foreign office letter, UC letter

Thats more then enough to convince them, Agey unn ki Marzi

you applied same month as me xD... as for "thats more than enough"... it definitely is not more than enough. anyone providing such little to none proof just pretty much shows them that you're not taking it seriously and that you dont care if the partner gets it or not xD...

you gotta show more than just a few little things.. send them the whole shebang and give them a reason to say yes rather than just look at 1 or 2 papers and say "next applicant please"

The Proofs I sent are pretty Solid ones, as My wife has been to UK already and last time I only submitted the Nikah Nama and Pictures and visa was granted without any issue.

Hi all

I emailed my solicitor asking for advice regarding my husbands visa.
He replied:

In order to issue a claim in the High Court the procedure is:

1. To give the Home Office a pre-action protocol notice setting out our claim and notifying the Home Office that if they do not decide our application within 14 days we will issue a claim in High Court. Our fees to take this step is usually £800.

2. If they take a decision within 14 days we will take no further action and the matter will be resolved. It is very likely that they will take a decision at this stage.

3, If they do not decide the application we will issue a claim in the High Court. Normally this costs £1,800-£2,000.

4. After issuance of the claim, we will need to serve the claim bundle on the Home Office's solicitors (TSOL). Once we have served this, TSol will have 21 days to file their defence. Some times they do not defence and simply provide us a decision and some times they seek extension to file defence.

5. Once they file their defence the matter will go to a judge for a decision. If the decision goes into your favour then normally the judge will award you your costs. If the decision is against you then the Court will order you to pay HO's costs which will around £500.

6. Both parties can decided to go further if they are not satisfied with the court's decision.

What would you suggest? I know it's expensive ... But just wanted to ask if anybody had a similar experience and what was the outcome?

Last time what you submitted was enough for a visit visa only... if you're applying for another visit visa then ofcourse that should be enough... visit visa is easy to get whereas a permanent visa should not be taken so lightly

I never said it was a Visit Visa it was a spouse Visa.

when you said "My wife has been to UK already"... that to me looked like shes still abroad and only came to visit... because if you applied for a spouse visa then she would still be in uk and all you would be applying for is either an extension or an indefinite leave to remain

No I dnt c why this would be a problem.
If khuda na kare anythng goes wrng with visa then the fact u went to visit them during ths time will actualy work in ur favour as proof of genuine and subsiting relationship.

In shaa Allah if ur lucky they mite even come back with u !

I don't think so solicitor job is do paper work. My solicitor just send me documents and i straight submit next day in Gerry even singed the form at Gerry office and my solicitor told me that she is the responsible till the outcomes from BHC. Why they charge £3000 for a case.

So its a good thing im going to Pakistan for one months but would it put any affected on the visa

It will not put any affect on your visa application because they will just check only those documents which you have already provided them.

If possible then it's better to go Pakistan to spend time with your wife because this period is very difficult to pass so go there and get rid her worries.

What a load of codswallop this is.This is why I hate using solicitors.These people are suppose to help vulnerable people not rip them off.Why some people use solicitors just to put an application together,is also beyond me.Its a simple procedure to do it yourself.You are more likely to do it properly.

Hi guys,

I have a question on showing evidence of subsisting relationship. I have seen ppl here have provided phone calls/skype/what's app/photos to prove relationship is genuine.
I am due to marry - I haven't met the girl. After a a few days of nikaah I am thinking of applying for visa for me wife. What are my chances of approval. The only evidence I can show are a few photos, nikaah nama, and may be some calls. But they all will be over a period of a 3-4 days before the spouse visa application date.

Thanks
