For now, theyre not focusing on clearing the backlog. Doing so equals bad stats, as we have seen in the Sept processing times.

For Oct stats, they want to show greatly improved stats and would have been processing the new apps, ie from september..hence why many sept applicants have receieved emails that their applications have enquiries being conducted/pre assessment checks and for some from aug/spet, visas have been approved.
Applied Online: 11th August 2014 (CAT A first app)
Applied in Lahore VAC: 20th August 2014
Current Status: Not yet assessed by ECO.

Wife applied 25th May 2014 online and 30th May 2014 she submitted her docs - Mirpur.

Heard nothing back, escalated the case last Monday.

Joke of a system.

I heard last night that a family friend who applied on the 10th of June has got his RFC and that they will be going to collect the passport today.

They are looking at June then, but not in any true order. :)

It was either from Mirpur or Islamabad.

I will find out today for sure and update you on the outcome and about which center they applied from.

I got an email a few day ago stating that:

Decision on your application has been delayed whilst further enquiries are
being conducted

I got this email this morning
We understand that you would like to know about the current status of your
visa application. I have tracked the status (GWF and date of birth) and found that there are no current updates. This could be
because your application was submitted recently or the details that you
have provided above are incorrect.

Why is there no updates:/
Online Submission 13/08/14
Submitted papers 15/09/14
Processed 30/12/14
Collected-Refused 14/01/15
Appeal submitted 06/02/15

Salaam

With whatsapp you can screenshot previous convos and include the date of that day. Its about timing too though as in you've got to be quick.
Basically just got to previous chat and as you are scrolling up/down you will see the date of that day appear at the top, at that moment you need to screenshot. Thats what I've done.

Also when you screenshot, delete your spouse's number from your phone so that when you do go and screenshot it will have their number on the top rather than just a name to basically prove that it in your spouses message.

Hope that helps.
