Hi

I can't imagine I'm using this forum for advice after my process went really swiftly but got stuck at the end!

Anyways reading all your post it seems I'm not the only one whose passport is stuck at CHC ISB.

Passport sent to CHC ISB on 21st October yet still waiting for passport return.

People who have email to LVO after 4 weeks has passed, have they got any replies if yes then after how many days.

Just read on website that LVO is getting relocated in December, I guess on 11th. so probably that might be a reason for delay. However my two cousins under same stream got their passport back with visa in three weeks.(same timeline)

Do you people think that we will definitely get it back once ECAS show DM. Or DM is changed once you have received Passport.

Many thanks
i submitted my passport on 20-10 ...
Ecas show Dm on 7-11

waiting for Passprt :( :mad:

what is your E cas status ?

Hi-All

Sameer- mashallah you have waited so long inshallah I hope everything works out for you and the good news is you just recently received an email from the LVO regarding your query so just relax, although its really hard.

Zahid@ its been 3 weeks since passport submission and my ECAS is showing 'IN PROCESS'.

I hope that I receive by the end of next week otherwise will have to contact LVO. Will it be better to send CSI or just email at LDNIMMIGRATION??

And someone wrote that it varies on case by case I totally agree.

So you can take the idea for how long i have waited.I received this reply from London visa office:
Dear Ms. Mir,

Please be advised that our office in London has received your documents and your application is now being finalized.

You will receive notification from our office in Islamabad in due course.

No need to call because they don't give you any information.
