when did you submit your appeal.I think your chances of the decision being overturned are quite high.

There must be someone here does online banking with Natwest. I want to know if ECO in pakistan can be picky about this as strictly speaking its not bank statement but has relevant info like transactions, bank account etc.

Thanks

Salaam brother, if i were you to be on the safe side, print your bank statements off online, and get them verified and i dont know about transaction history list my husband was going to submit them but he didnt. If that stupid bank didnt write a letter or go to another branch, i cant believe they are doing this to you. did you say you just need a letter of authenticity ? go to another branch and another branch until someone writes you a letter, they did it my husband he got one a few days ago and dont submit the transaction history list if i was you.

I will try another branch but dont know, not sure what to do!

I thought there would have been people in similar boat here? Natwest bankers?

It is frustrating, they say they are not allowed to write a letter!

Hi guys

What documents are required to go for TB test ?

because someone told my spouse that you have to first out ur husband name on new cnic card and passport then you have to do TB test

Plus she already have CNIC and Passport in which fathers name is mentioned. Can she go for TB test on old passport and CNIC

How long does it take to get the TB certificate and also booking appointment ?

@Akhan47 when you submitted your appeal in November did you receive a letter shortly after stating how long it will take for your appeal to be reviewed?

They sent a letter acknowledging the appeal and giving me a deadline one month after I submitted it.

When am I likely to get a hearing date? Is it still 2 weeks after deadline? And how far away will it be? Still 6 months?

I've escalated this for application for a second time last week on Thursday and I haven't received any response to that either. Is this normal for them not to reply to escalation requests at all?

And also, is it normal for them to take 15 weeks to process an application??? I can't find anyone on this forum who applied in October and who hasn't got a response apart from my wife. It's totally mad and it's quite frustrating to be honest. Would appreciate some help on this.
Although my wife has got her visa, do I still keep coming back to check if you got yours! It's normal for them to take a long time, but it's unusual that they aren't giving you any response at all to your escalations. I don't even know what you can do about that. Maybe make an appointment at open clinic with your local MP and see if he/she can get some answers. There's a general election looming so hopefully they might be more pro-active in helping you :?:
I had an email from my solicitor asking about my progress. He mentioned that if they don't respond to your escalation after 10 days, contact them again. I'll contact them on Monday and see what they have to say. Just pray it turns out well because it's a real struggle being the last person on this forum to apply in October and not received anything.
Any news Optimus Prime?!

That date is maybe what the eco has given for reviewing the appeal I hope inshallah you hear before that and inshallah your visa will be granted.

Yeah, when they receive your appeal they will send you a letter 10 days later. It's kind of a long process then when it is sent to the bhc in pakistan the eco can decide how ever long he/she wants to take to review the appeal but has to give a response within the time frame they give. Good luck.

Ignore the negative comments sis don't let words get to you. I know its harsh for someone to say you will never get your visa. Everything is in Allah's will people can say what they want. Inshallah you will get your visa. Indeed, Allah is with those who are patient.

So typical of our community.Dragging each others feet and full of jealousy.People should help each other than bullying each other. I am sure this thread got few days to live.
