The tone of this email is frightening, seems like they have ignored all the ruksati/valima and other evidences i had send them voluntarily in May2014 and was confirmed in the GCMS notes. We had filled an English version of the Nikkah nama...dont know why they need an urdu one.... Any senior member please guide me ASAP what should i do.....Thanks
I suggest you send them the original nikam nama in Urdu as well as get the Nadra marriage certificate from the concerned union council, in addition send them your call/chat logs, pictures of both of you together if there are any and send them pictures of rukhsati and walima that you have. They send a similar email to another member on this forum and later on they were convinced

Well wishes and prayers for all the brothers/sisters on this forum looking for answers to comfort their struggle for reuniting with their spouses. I bring happy news and hope for all that despite all my anger and frustration today I received my Visa via TCS at home.

This is very surprising since the long march is going on and Diplomatic enclave was supposed to be closed yet got my PP with Visa sticker stamped.

What this means is great hope for anyone who started their process around Sept/Oct/Nov 2012; have done couple of medical exams; their ECAS online status shows Medical results have been received; and their cases went to London for faster processing.

Once again, lots of well wishes and prayers for those who are missing their spouse or baby/babies (like me) for a long time.

Extra Tip: I had an expired passport which was on papers, I got a renewed passport but didn't inform embassy. Just stapled and sent together an now visa is on newer one. This tip I had got from this forum else I was eager to update embassy about newer passport. That might've added some delay I guess.

I'll try answer as much to keep you all motivated and happy.

Can you please share your some experience regarding Passport sending and receiving via TCS with exact date and time ?
Since I've always known Garry's Fedex Visa dropbox services in Lahore(My City) to handle such situation as sending/receiving Visa related applications...but believe me once I got the PHEP letter in email I went to different FedEx/gerry's Visa Dropboxes but they were totally blank when they saw my passport request from embassy. They even refused sending my passport as it is illegal for them.

The only option I was left with is TCS(mentioned in PHEP letter), I went straight to the TCS Visatronix center behind Main boulevard Lahore. (On the same road-line where Yum is).

They got my passport (on 4th August) took me hardly 5 minutes. My passport was received on 5th August by Mr. AHMAD at CHC. And I think 15 days exactly and I got it back.

That is a wonderful news. Did your ecase ever changed to Decision Made?
I got PHEP letter via email on 28th July, sent Passport on 4th Aug, ECAS got updated last week around 11~14. Thats when they do their monthly updates..I've been observing this monthly updating thing.

AOA. How are you all? Yesterday I received an email from London Visa Office requesting additional documents. With all other forms and PCC, they asked me to send the original Nikkah nama which I have already mailed to CHC Islamabad in January, 2014 as I am receiving the same email again first one from CHC and the second one from LVO. I am a bit confused what should I do now. So anybody having an idea or who have been through this kind of situation in past or near past please PM me ASAP because I have to reply LVO within 29 days.
Thanks.
Many congratulation !!! that the working on your file

Hello everyone :)
I'm new to this forum..
I'm a wife who has applied to sponsor her husband

My timeline is..
App. Received.. 12/24/12
App. Approved & sent to Islamabad.. 01/21/13

My case has been in Islamabad for almost 20 months now with no acknowledgment other then the medical results having been received.. How much longer do you all think before i receive some sort of reply?

Are there any other december 2012 applicants out there that haven't heard anything yet?
Hi,
Our app is Nov 2012
Our file is also in ISBD and never sent to London.

Dear Fatima,
My wife applied from Canada in Oct 2012, Got couple times medical exams..last one was done on Oct7th2013.
My baby girl born on 19th Feb 2014 which we notified embassy and send medical/doctor reports of her birth. Meanwhile, also tried MP multiple times to push the case and inquire (which I'm sure had no effect).
On 28th July 2014 got the PHEP letter for passport.
Today, on 20th August I received my Visa stamped.
I'm planning to get a ticket ASAP now.

I've my prayers for all of you to be reunited with your families ASAP.

Be patient and hopeful.

Have a good day.
