Salaam guys All application go through the BHC - gerrys send them to the BHC and they forward to Croydon or wherever they need to go! They are then sent back to BHC and forwarded to the relevant VAC! Even though the decesions are made in Croydon the actually visa is issued at the BHC! Hope this ...

Salaam all Billo/Q4sim - in my opinion nav is right!!! This question is asking basically asking if you have lived together as husband and wife rather than if you have joint responsibilities! I would recomend that you enter the dates you were together after your marriage (day of marriage onwards ...

Thanks CRT7 I am kinda thinking that i should just get her to travel and then sort it here! Two people I trust have told me to do this - Batley bhai and my solicitor! just emailed them to see if they will send an email or letter saying yes she can travel and then change it when she is here!! But i ...

Salaam guys!! Ahhhhhhhhh the relief!!! Well apart from the fact that the passport has to go back to have the name on the visa corrected! Mind you - if they take more than a week to ask for it back i am going to tell her to travel and then sort it out when she is here!! I have had enough of waiting ...

Thanks batley checked with ulna and they have recomended that it is corrected!! They have said it will take a minimum of 4 days so I am guessing that should be at least a month! In fairness now that the visa is issues I am not that worried so will probably have it corrected before she comes over in ...

Yousafa

you never know mate!! It can take between 1 and 3 month depending on the workload/no. of applications!

At the beggining of the year they were flying out in about 1 month but now they have been a bit slow!!

Inshallah we will all hear soon!!

CRT7 - i honestly just dont get it!! All i can think is maybe your application was started before this new fangled computer system was installed and launched in mid March? Thats why you havent had your status updated? And again with not contacting my employer - no idea why not!! My theory is that ...

CRT7 - has your status not changed to "visa application under process at BHC"? Seems wierd that it hasnt!! These are the kind of things that annoy me - the total lack of consistency from application to application!! And deff get on thier case if you dont hear by the 12 week deadline!!! If that ...

Salaam Is200 Yeah there really is no point in emailing them - as they seem to just say "go away and dont bother us until the 12 weeks are up"! Your application date is around the same time as a few people on this board so i would keep an eye on the board to see when they get reponses - it doesnt ...

I agree with CRT7!! As it's very unlikely that legally u could enforce any new changes on an application under a previous scheme! Plus you would have to announce them and give dates from when they are to come into effect. For example the raising of the age to 21 came into effect in November a couple ...
