yes it is moving to Dubai, because most pakis are fraudsters who are easily bribed with a couple of grand. Im glad it is moving because at least genuine people will get a chance to get a visa rather than all those ones who pay cash for visas....and yes it does happen - my dad's friend was in one of the teams who went inside the BHC to see any wrong-doings, and they caught ppl who were taking bribes for visas.
So Im happy its moving to Dubai. And so should all of you.

Hiya,

Congratulations to everyone that has received good news about their applications.

I have following the forum for several weeks now, My wife applied for her visa on the 17th July 2008 at the Mirpur office. Just like everyone else, she has called them on several occasions just to be told "call back".

I guess we just have to be patient! (easier said than done - but hey!)

Anyway... the reason for my post is to do with the news that the visa office will be moving to dubai. From what I have heard, this should not really affect the turnaround of our applications adversely. In fact it should hopefully help us get a quicker response as they will want to clear all the current applications before moving to Dubai.

The only people that should really be worried are those applying whilst the transition from islamabad office to Dubai takes place.

Best of luck everyone!

Also, pple dont get upset over the news of the Visa Processing moving to UAE. To my knowledge, this comes into effect from next year (i may be wrong) but it could be a postive move. After given all the security probs in Islamabad and the offices having to close more often then not, hopefully, it will mean more efficient processing of applications.

I think the bottom line is that the checks now are much more strigent ... and if you apply at 'peak' times its gonna mean a delay.

Its not what we want but there we go!!

Inshallah keep the faith, patience and support your partners. Hopefully you will all get positive results.

:D

Yep ... thats the number.

To be honest, I listed all the references...
Name, DoB, Date of application submission, Gerry Ref (starts with GRY_ ....), Application Ref (starts with ISL/123456/....) & passport number.

Inshallah you'll get a postive response :D
