Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

[orchid786]

Hello everyone
My husband applied for the visa in May. He received an email today from CRMADMIN@vfsglobal.com
with subject:
Subject: Application Recieved from the post CRM:000XXXX

The email says:
Dear XXXXXXXXXX ,

The processed visa application for GWF reference number - GWFXXXXXXXXwas received at the UK Visa Application Centre on 7/30/2015 .
If a courier service was purchased from VFS Global, your processed application will be delivered to the chosen address.

If not, your documents can be collected during the designated passport collection times.

Please note this is an auto generated e-mail. Please do NOT reply to this email.



He received another email earlier in the day from ISLAMVisaInfo@fco.gov.uk saying application processed. I've read a lot about people's emails and outcomes.
Has anyone else received an email like this??? What was the outcome?
He will go and pick the documents tomorrow but we are both so nervous.

Inshallah hope it's good news!! What's your timeline??

Thank you. Hope it's good news too.
Application received in Islamabad email on 7th May
Update referred for enquiries 24th July
2 x above emails received today.

[akram1990]

It was through the enquiry service

Received process email on Monday is it worth buying not received call yet. Is it worth going into gerrys anyway?

Did the email come direct from islamvisainfo??
If so then it's up to you really it can be that they have received it and just not got about telling you yet.

If it was told through the enquiry service that the application has been processed then I highly doubt the passport is at gerrys yet

We received a processed email update 2 days ago and then the RTC email today

@orchid786
Did you submit at Islamabad? ?

In Shaa Allah hope it's good news for you

You should expect to get a email most likely from bhc direct 1st
Or expect the passport back at gerrys sometime mid next week

It really doesnt matter now but I want to know whether the letter of sponsorship provided by the spouse or any other letter we provide have to be notarised by a lawyer? Has anybody received a visa where the letter provided wasnt notarised? And yes, my letters were not notarised.

[shfh7815]

Got update on Tuesday..... Sent to higher authority for decision..... Not heard anything yet :/

Hi i escalted my case on last week and gotthe below reply on Monday. They have not said how many days it will take to get back to me...has anyone else had this email and if so in how many days did you receive a response?
Thank you for contacting the United Kingdom Visas and Immigration
International Enquiry Service.

Please be advised, your case has been escalated to the relevant department
to enquire when a decision is likely to be made, and as soon as we receive
a response we will update you accordingly.

It will be week 10 on Monday for me. From what people are saying on here that your case isn't really looked at till week 11 i have decided i won't chase up the escalation and will just wait till i hear back from them but i was just curious as to how many days it will take till i get a response. ..

Your timeline is similar to mine. My doc reached Isb on the 27th May but Lahore VAC seems to be slow in hearing back. I suggest you should wait till your 11th week finishes that is when anyday you might get an update

Uptill a couple of days ago they said my application was yet to be assessed by the eco but a couple of weeks before that they said my application was in progress and a week before that the whole pre assessment and online verification done email. So my case is going backwards. Confused!

Hi,

Does somebody have the number to Mirpur Gerry's, I emailed them on Weds and they replied saying it has been processed but not with a processed date - for all I know it could have been processed the week before.

I applied in Mirpur BIO on May 11th. The number I have seen mentioned before is 05827438005 but how do I call that from the UK? Isn't it 00923.....

Thanks in advance, inshallah all our Visa's will be accepted by the Grace of the almighty!!
