[rafiq24]

But so far no email no message from Gerrys for passport collections. Any idea what is eastimated timeline for collection.

I am not concerned what is the outcome of application But concerned my dad has a flight on 17th to another country. What if we do not receive a reply next 2 days. Should we just pop into office for passport collection.

Help Appreciated

Hi all

I have submitted bio metric on 23/06/2019 ( Al Khobar , Saudi Arabia )

Received UK visa application issued mail on 08/07/2019 ( from British Embassy , Riyadh )

Received sms to receive passport on 10/07/2019

Found UK entry clearance sticker on it. ( Validity from 08/10/2019 to 08/04/2020 )

My question is Visa and Entry clearance are same , And what is the difference between Visa And entry clearance.

And My travel plan mentioned in application is( Sep 15 to Sep 23 - 2019 ) but given from October 08. any one has idea Why?

Expecting reply from any one in this forum highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi there.. we have been through this... after refusal on baseless reasons we complained about that and they were reconsidering our whole application and we inquired about outcome from UKVI we always got the same response.. just wait for the right time !
It took 2 months for reconsideration and now we have received concluded email today. Let's see what gonna be the outcome of this reconsideration !!!
Hopin for the best !

[MSI1212]

Submitted visa application online (21st or 22nd June, don't remember)

Completed biometric submission and other formalities at Gerry's office in Islamabad on 25th June.

Email received today saying 'Your UK Visa application has been issued'

After reading multiple threads on this forum (including this one), it's safe to say that Issued means the visa has been approved.

Waiting for call / SMS from Gerry's now to collect the passports.

I am afraid yes.

can i go for review or have to reapply for visit visa?

Only if the made an error , ignored material evidence or reached an irrational conclusion which no reasonable servant or entry clearance officer, presented with such evidence would have reached.

My question is has anyone got emails like this all on same day and 3 emails like me or just 2 emails.

Could be an issued visa maybe??? We will know for sure tomorrow but was wandering if anyone else is like my case.

Hello dear, yes I have received exactly the same first email of yours but on 16/07/2019 but still I didn’t receive the second and third email as yours, but I think the concluded doesn’t means it’s refusal and I am way for the outcome, therefore plz tell us the outcome tomorrow of your relative decision

Dear Lobna2019,
Actually, I have received exactly just the same first email of yours in 16/July/2019 which is
GWFxxxxxxxx UK Visa Application - Application Concluded

Dear xxxxxxxxxx

Your UK visa application has been concluded by Visits UK and will shortly be dispatched.

but still I didn't receive any of the the second or third email as yours and I am still waiting, so please update us with the outcome of what is the decision of the visa for your mother and father in law if they got the visa or no (refusal) to confirm that the Concluded = refusal visa or Concluded = Granted visa
thanks.

I have great news everyone and maybe started a new trend for people who visa application goes through TLScontact.

My in laws just picked up their passports and both being issued 6 month visa.

Thank god, i think the give away is if you get maybe 3 emails the second email about passport with immigration i think that means you got the visa but either way i thought i would share since a few people here got same email as me so in my case concluded meant issued.

Good luck all and thank you

Hi,

I received below email and i am totally confused?

Thank you for contacting UK Visas and Immigration International Contact Centre.

With regards to your enquiry about the status of your application, I can confirm that we have now completed all our actions and your case has been closed.

We cannot discuss the outcome of your application on-line or by telephone, however the visa application centre will be in contact with you in regards to collection or delivery of your
passport.

If you have requested a return courier service, you can track the location of your travel document online.

We strongly recommend that you do not buy a non-refundable, non-flexible ticket to the UK, until your visa application has been approved and you have received your documents.

What does " we have now completed all our actions and your case has been closed" mean?

I have not received any other mesg yet from application center.

Dear Customer,

Your UK visa application has been issued.

PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THE VISA APPLICATION CENTRE BEFORE THEY CONTACT YOU.

You will be contacted by the Visa Application Centre when your documents are ready for collection, or have been dispatched via courier where this is relevant.

You are reminded that you should avoid making travel plans until you have collected your passport, as the outcome of your visa application is not final until you receive your passport.

Please ensure you check the details on your visa when collecting your passport. If you need to contact us you can do so via our International Enquiry Service at www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-outside-uk
