Hey i have applied for my wife's visa in January 2013, i got my original documents back in August but it never mentioned anything about london. So I am wondering how will i know that when was my file sent to london?
Because initially in 2013 it was sent to Islamabad as the email stated. I have emailed London asking them about details but anything you guys can tell me?
apply for GCMS notes

No I have not received anything from the London Visa Office(LVO) at all. The only communication I have was an email from CIC saying that my file has been transferred to LVO.

Hello guys,

How can I find out if my file has been transferred to London Visa Office, I called my MP (Chris Alexander's) office who is also the immigration minister, his assistant asked me to sign and give her consent form which I did and she told me the next week that my file is in London as well. But, since my first letter in July 2012 that file was accepted and sent for processing to Islamabad, I have never ever received any correspondence ever since. No letter or E-mails.

So where do I E-Mail if I need to find out the current status of my file, since I'm seeing all people whose files were transferred to London from ISB received either an email or letter stating there file has been transferred.

Please help , I will really appreciate it :,(

Thanks in advance,

Ok. Seeing everyone getting requests for additional docs is worrying me a little but still have my fingers crossed. Is yours a wife case?

Document requests aren't necessarily a good thing.... it means they were not satisfied with ur initial submission that ur relationship is genuine n require additional information from u..... if they are still not satisfied they will call u in for an interview

I hope what you're saying is correct!! But there is complete silence ever since my file was transferred to London in Oct 2013. At least they should send some response.

We have decided to order notes. Lets see what they say!
