I am talking about my friends and relatives. They got it within 1 year everything approved. They said if everything is ok, everything will go smoothly. They said biggest thing you should do is pray to God.
It took only 9 months to process my case (spouse case) was transfered directly to London Visa office. I have already submitted my passport to CHC Islamabad 4 weeks ago just waiting to get my passport bavk now.

Also I was able to get a 4 year multiple entry TRV too.

Re: Spousal sponsorship for all Pakistani applicants at London Visa Office

Mercy24 said:
Although I do hope the processing times improve significantly. I have not seen "many" on the forum having a processing time of less than 12 months in 2014.
I would be interested to know who they are - I can't consider one or two people many. Overwhelming majority from 2013 are being are getting close or recently received PPR2.
I personally think we should wait for more data from January and February 2014 applicants (applications received by my CPC-Mississauga from Pakistani applicants).
The person i mentioned was one example. Ofcourse, most if not all from those who had their visas issued stopped contributing to this thread. Read earlier pages of this thread and you will stumble across several who have been processed within a year. Roshanee who got approved just now is another example, it appears it took him only 9 months. I have observed several January February 2014 applicants receiving PPRs in the past few weeks.

So, my ecas was updated to "Decision made" on Feb 3, 2015 but they never contacted me. I did everything, GSM notes, MP, emails to London and Islamabad, called CIC call centre. No help. Could someone advise what I should do?

Re: Spousal sponsorship for all Pakistani applicants at London Visa Office

Yes. If we see the trend for 2014 applicants many jan,feb 2014 applicants got pprs. Even july applicants also get reply from.Lvo.
It is quite evident that they are processing files within 12-15 months. We just hope and pray they continue with same speed.

That is the only option you are left with, rest are already done when they dint need to be done; as it was so earlier to send such inquiry. There is an avg time of at least one moth for getting PPR1/2.
