Hey guys,

Just have a few concerns and it would appreciate if someone could help me out.
So does the 133 processing days include weekends and holidays? Secondly, I booked my flight to go to Pakistan on the 25th of June so can you let me know if I will be able to receive my visa by then?
I did count the days till then and till 15th of June 160 days would have been done including the weekends and holidays of course.
And then should I send my ticket to them visa web form? Would that be a good idea and would that make a difference to them and process my visa asap?
Any help from you guys would be highly appreciated.

As far as I know, the processing time begins after the biometrics, and medical application is processed and updated on the GCKey portal. Until then your application is considered incomplete. So processing begins after it is "complete". So the 133 days starts after that.

A webform with your ticket is not going to be much of a difference to your application processing time or consideration for the visa. Infact I believe many Immigration consultants advise applicants not to buy airline tickets and get stuck until their visa is processed.
