Hi,

upon my inquiry london visa office has stated your file is under going normal background checks,

can any one explain how long it takes and what they checks in normal background checks?

Thanks
Hi no one really knows the answer to "how long". Every case is different, and every VO works at a different pace. Just be assured that you are in the last stages, and you shall hear soon.

That's exactly what I am thinking right now. My wedding wasn't that traditional or cultural but I had more than 7 years of ongoing relationship before we finally decided to get married. It will be interesting to see CIC's response on my case. Fingers crossed! :)
I hope INSHA ALLAH everything will be good, our was love marriage too. They have written "It is unusual in Pakistani culture that this is a love marriage but it is noted that they indicate that match was agreed by both set of parents who all attended the wedding.".

I have submitted my passport November 16 at VAC Lahore but still haven't received my passport back. Anyone else in a similar situation. I have also sent an email to Islamabad but haven't gotten any reply back from them.
