Guys,
Another Question-When they do background checks do they physically go or call the residence or do they call only employers?

Hi Tukku,

Its really upto the visa officer what he likes to do, there were some cases where the visa officer visited the workplace but mostly they verify it by calling the employer.

Hi Saki / Mitali & other with the similar experience,

Can anyone of you who have sent your full docs to the Visa Office London tell me about the Photos. As i have sent in my full docs with the photos but unfortunately i have written name, DOB and signature behind each photo instead of Name, Heitht and eye colour.

Anyone with the similar experience ? do you think what i did would be accepted or should i send the photos again with the correction?

Hi Aamir,

You got your 2nd AOR very fast, where are you residing in Pakistan or some other country ? Dont worry about the 12 months these days they are giving time frame of 8 to 12 months to every applicant.

Hi Gavi,

I dont think its a big issue, i would say just wait and see if they ask you for the updated photos otherwise just leave it as it is. See what other says.

Thats still very quick just a gap of few days but its GOOD anyway :), with the file number sometimes visa officer keep the same file number and sometime they changed it dont know on what basis but its normal dont worry. They way you got your 2nd AOR i am guessing that you will get your visa very soon.

Cheers
