Alhamdulillah my sponsorship approval was sent quite quickly. Does anyone have an idea of how long the London Visa Office has been taking to review cases over the last few months? I have heard many people saying that it's much quicker now but want to get a concrete idea.
Also - The original applications required an Urdu copy of the nikah nama with the union council's seal. I do not have an Urdu copy of my Nikah nama, as it was only completed in English. Therefore, I just sent copies of the English nikah nama with the seal. Do you think there will be any issues with that?
Thank you, and wish you all the best of luck.
