Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[saf786]

@saf786,i also applied as selfemployed,and waiting for reply how many bnk statements did u submit in ur first application?

I had submitted 12 but 3 had no transaction because I was away on holiday to Pakistan

I plan to apply again in April to complete another financial year so I have 12 fresh statements .. I will still submit last years too with all hmrc and tax letters so they have no reason or doubt
InshaAllah

[saf786]

For the people who have or are going to apply as self employed

Do we HAVE to submit both, personal and business bank statements ?? What if u use ur business acc as ur personal ? Becauae I only use my business acc for everything .. I don't have a personal acc which I use for anything so can it just be 12 months business acc statements ?

I think business account 12 months statement will be enough I personally did personal account too but from what I know business account should be fine. I would add in a cover letter to make it clear why you don't have a personal account

Some of my payments were made in April this year for march work ..even though Tax year finishes on 31st march ..wud they consider them payments in the last financial year

We understand that you would like to know about the current status of your

application. If the information provided is incorrect then please provide

Alternatively, once the process has been completed and a decision has been
made the visa application centre will be in contact as per process.

Though we try our best to complete the visa application process in 15

applied from outside the UK) by entering your details at the following

Can someone please tell me what is meant by this I've emailed em couple of times & always get this response

[mooty]

I have the similar problem. I have checked my detail twice and made sure it's correct but still I have got the response that they can't find any update in the system. Odd!

[Nm.123]

I find that so frustrating is there another email I can contact them on

[Have faith]

@nm.123 I got the same email a while ago, I think they are just automated responses because half of the time their emails don't make any sense, email them again asking for an update see what they reply, I always email them although most of them time they say it's in process. I'm afraid there's no other email only this one.

Are you saying the package was opened when your husband got documents back? As far as I know it should be sealed and only application should open it and by no means VAC should be able to tell if it is approved or rejected.

[freddy786]

i knw sis they r so rude people,and i really dnt want to face them again,but as i think they dnt knw that visa rejected or aproved,good luck for ur 2nd application,

THIS WHOLE SYSTEM NEED CHANGE Corruption AND HURTING EACH OTHER IS NORMAL, VIP PROTOCOLS, OUR NATION IS LOST. I CAN ONLY Dua for Our Nation

[prayforus]

This is why when my wife will go to get her papers. I'll make her record the whole event on her phone. If they do mess her about, I'll take the matter to court.

No reason what so ever for Gerry's to know the outcome of the visa. They are just there to send documents back and forth.

Sis Please can you tell where did your husband go to collect his passport? was it the same place where he submitted his application?

[Have faith]

@Ket1 it's disgusting the way they treated us, it's not as if they are doing anything for free we have paid for it, my husband paid for the premium lounge service 3,000rs to get message notifications etc, till this date he only ever got One message right at the beginning of our case, it has been 9 months and still nothing, I don't understand why they taking forever after charging us so much and ur right our nation needs to stand that's why I pray Imran khan wins in politics coz everyone else are money grabbing scheming people.

In'Shaa'Allah soon we will all get our decisions, good luck sis on submitting ur application.
