Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[amz786]

This is an email to confirm that your UK visa application has been processed and will now be returned to the Visa Application Centre for collection.

You will be contacted when your passport and documents are ready for collection. Please do not go to the Visa Application Centre before you have been advised to do so and you are also reminded to avoid making travel plans until you have collected your passport.

FINALLY !!!!!!

I hope its granted

Arrrggh so many questions when will they contact the missis to pick the passport

Will she recieve all my oringal documents back at the same time

Congrats on getting the email. Yes you will get all your docs back.

Hey guys do you guys know where I can find the visa Application centre reference number on? Also I requested an update they said they will expedite the case. Is this the same as escalating a case? Your help will be appreciated thanks

Don't worry just leave that bit blank or put your gwf number and yes it is the same, did they send u the long form thing??

[Az7980]

I was under the impression that only the pay slips and the bank statements fell under the 28 day rule. The employment letter can be older.

My first post but i have been a silent reader for a while

Well some say it's only payslip and bank statement, but I personally know one person who was asked for an updated letter and one person was refused, why leave anything to chance

Basically he just signs in on the visa4uk account pays the online fee then books biometric appointment and prints out the filled in application form and signs the end page where it says applicant signature and then he sends this form to u and tb test certificate and English certificate along with any other documents e.g translated nikka namma

I don't think mine is within the 28 days . This is a piss taker. It only mentions bank stats in the Appendix FM

[stillwaiting123]

People please don't worry regarding the 28 days old employment letter, this is only a few cases and depends who u have assessing your papers, these days they refuse on stupid things, just do dua and inshallah visas will be granted I'm not saying everyone who's employment letter is older than 28 days will get rejected im just saying a few people have I know its not mentioned in the appendix so people are having to appeal against the decision Eco makes so just make sure all papers aren't too old anyway, this will reduce risk of being rejected or asked for additional documents therefore reduce visa processing time
