I was looking at the statistics for visas for Lahore and only one decision was made in June for settlement visa!!! Does anyone understand that? Does that mean only one person's application was looked at that was from Lahore, also when it says 100% in 15 days does that mean a decision was made within 10 days of application? Does that mean an application was seen in 2 weeks and a decision made? It is really confusing I don't understand the statistics. Can anyone help

Also is there anyone who applied from Lahore in March? Whether you have had a decision or not?

I also don't understand the statistics,on one side ukba says that 100% decisions made in 15 days and on other side they mentioned that only 1 decision was made in the month of June,how is it possible?

i think they are just making us fool.

I feel the same I can't cope with this wait I didn't realise it was gonna take this long.

Statics don't make sense to either but this is just a rough guide it depends on how quickly they look at ur case

Hello guys
after waiting for 52 working days we have received an email saying "Your passport is ready for collection" does it mean the visa has been granted please?

cdquah it means that you can go and collect the passport but it doesn't mean that visa has been granted, you will came to know about your visa either it's granted or not after opening the sealed envelope that will given to you by Gerrys and the envelope is always confidential even Gerry's staff don't know that ukba has granted the visa or not.
