As of April 1, 2010, Economic applications from citizens or residents of Pakistan will be processed in London, United Kingdom. If you live in Pakistan and are applying under this category, send your application to London and not to Islamabad.
Dear all,
Above is the wording from Chc islamabad visa office,Now please let me know where i should send my full documents(as per cio sydney approval letter,i was advised to send full documents to chc islamabad office).Either this notification is for those who will apply after April 1, 2010,Kindly clarify.

Dear Sarmad
It seems like docs should go to London instead of Islamabad after 1st April 2010, but not yet clear that FSW1 may effect or not. I am also not clear and in the same boat. Let see how it works.

My understanding is if you sending full documents after or on April 01, 2010, Send it to CHC London not CHC Islamabad

Yes, but at that time CHC Isb was accepting full applications. Even if you send it to CHC Islamabd after April 01, 2010, it will be transferred to London anyways. If you still have time, wait for few more days and things will clear. I am positive after or on April 01, 2010, Its London not Islamabad even though CIO email says Islamabad as process is changing from April 01

My full documents reached CHC Islamabad on 29th March 2010. And I have received 2nd AOR from ISLAMABAD. that means they are processing applications here. and havn't transfered the existing applications to CHC London.

It was dispatched from CHC Islamabad on 8th April 2010, but somehow postal service took it 10 days to reach me, i got it yesterday 17th April 2010. My friend's AOR was dispatched on 7th April and he got it on 9th April. I think postman in my area was on leave :D

@ Sarmad......my suggestion is that u should send full docs to ISB....as it is mentioned in ur NS approval letter......then its up to ISB & they will transfer it to London by themselves........I have got AOR on 6th April & have been advised to submit my docs to London..

guys,,,,
from 1st april onward all applications 4m Pakistan will be processed in london this is very clear. CHC ISB is mentioned on AORs issued before 1st april at that time this change was not applied. definately CHC ISB will forward all FSW applications to london but it will delay your process few more days,,,, explore this link

ADVICE; think simple and gather ur documents as per checklist do not send additional things to create mess of documents,,,,,
