Hi everyone,

I need a proof of gross income for 2013/2014 from HMRC/Inland Revenue.

Do they provide this? If yes what is it called and how do I get it?

Thanks

Salam

Had some good news yesterday, My brother in law who applied on 01/05/14 got a call to collect to collect his passport yesterday.
The visa was stamped for the 27th October 2014.
It is a big relief, I applied for my wife's 8 days later we are still waiting on the outcome of that.

Just wondering what is the advised travel time once a visa has been issued.

If anyone has any questions do not hesitate to contact me.

Regards

Hi everyone. I pray that everyone hears good news soon inshallah. I have been waiting for a while for my husbands visa. Everytime i email then for a status update i recieve a reply saying no update found. I dont know what this means because there are so many people on this timeline who are recieving updates and has applied around the same time as i have. Do you think they may have lost my application?

My wife has submitted the papers in Lahore today.

Completed biometrics, paid for SMS and email updates, no questions asked.

Told there would be a response in 3 months.

Inshallah all will go well.

One question.

When you are emailing for updates etc what is the address?

I have kept a copy of the GW number for this purpose in the future as I have been noting many applications are taking time.

My dua for you all.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I applied in Islamabad on 08/05/14. Have not heard any news since then
Hi when you say you applied on 08/05/2014, is it when you applied ONLINE or submitted your documents in person?

Dear xxxx,

Thank you for contacting the UK Visas and Immigration International Enquiry
Service.

We would like to apologise for the delay in responding to you. We
understand that you have been waiting and would like to know about the
current status of your visa application. I have received a response
regarding your escalated case and found that your application status
states:

"You initial pre-assessment has now been completed and your application is
with the Entry Clearance Officer awaiting further checks and enquiries.
Once these checks are completed, your application will be processed and a
final decision will be made."

Your patience in this regard is highly appreciated, until this matter is
resolved.

Your visa application centre or the entry clearance officer (ECO) will
contact you once your application is fully assessed and a decision has been
made or, if necessary, during the consideration of your application.

Please note: The visa applications are processed and decided by the British
High Commission. Neither our department, nor any of our staff, play any
part or influence the outcome of the visa application.

For any further details, or should you need to contact us again please
refer to our website at https://ukvi-international.faq-help.com/, select
appropriate country, click next and then select “E-Mail form” and
complete as instructed. We will aim to come back to you within 1 day.

Kind regards,


Thank goodness, some progress! How long does it take after this?
