    I'm glad to see you're leaning on the positive side of things. Allah is the One to reward people. Please keep smiling no matter what's being said to you or is happening. It definitely helped me and it's my advice to everyone else.

    I would personally not hesitate in contacting your MP. You will most likely be referred to an administrative assistant of some sort. He or she will be able to request an updated and a tiny bit more detailed status update on your behalf. In my case, I had sent 2 e-mails without any reply back...

    All documents were reviewed thoroughly and they were handed back to us after the interview because the officer was fully satisfied. Think about it - how can they review 400 pages of Roman URDU messages thoroughly in under 15 minutes when the officer didn't even speak Urdu? No, no visa on spot ...

    The thing is that it has now become pretty hard to extract chat/call logs out of IMO or Skype so therefore I had to spend 2/3 hours manually selecting all chat logs of IMO from one account only (IMO chat logs also include call logs) so I only did last 3 months. We've been using it for 2 year now...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    I flew to Pakistan two weeks ago for 5 days only just to be there for mental support of my wife. Believe it or not - the following actually happened. We were scheduled at 8:30 and we got there right at the entrance 30 minutes early. We sat right in the first row of the waiting lounge. We brought...

    Thank you for the reply but I don't think you understood my questions. 1. I already have the list of questions. 2. We did not miss the interview date - it is in the future (April 11, 2018). Question 1: Our lawyer received interview email on March 6 but he did not inform us until March 18 and I...

    Hey, thanks for getting back. As I was suspecting - we got a date! Yayyy! There's a catch though. LVO sent us an interview letter on March 6th and my lawyer was on vacation therefore he did not forward the correspondence to me until March 18th. I read the letter (interview date given is April...

    Thank you for the reply buddy - I believe what you told me is exactly what I needed - just a general idea. Thank you once again! :) I don't mind waiting even 3 months... after 14 initial months of waiting time.

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Hello everyone, Does anyone have any idea about the current interviews schedule? I inquired about the status of our file about three weeks ago and received correspondence mentioning that our application is awaiting an interview. They did not give us a date yet but mentioned that we'll be...

    I understand your personal perspective but, everyone has their own situations and matters to consider. Every family and person is different. I am fully ready to answer all questions and so is my spouse - for us, our families matter more than enough to be there. We are not a "nikah only" couple...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Well, there were two major reasons for things happening this way. One of them is quite personal and I won't be able to discuss it on here but the second major reason was that 16 members of my immediate family would have been left out of the marriage from my side and half of my wife's immediate...

    Well, my issue is the same as yours actually - I want to be with my other half asap. Nikah only case - applied in Jan 2017 Processing started early Feb 2017 CSQ completed in April 2017 No updates since then. Our medical expired today and I requested some advice here about what to do so I did...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Hey, you were right. Lawyers actually suggest doing nothing at all and would just tell you to be "patient and hang in there!". The letter I wrote to inform LVO of our struggles and the Rukhsati events - my lawyer suggests it won't do any good and won't shed any light on anything new and he's...

    Yes, for sure - I'd like to be added to the spreadsheet but I'd provide you the dates and details at a later time - unable to gather everything at the moment.

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Hello everyone, Just a quick question that might seem very dumb at this point - I'm currently not able to confirm this but once we receive CSQ for the applicant - do we have to send it to LVO?

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Thank you for the advice - I've made up my mind and will try to get on with the two steps you mentioned. First of all, I've written a letter which explains my perspective of things, describes the difficulties I'm facing without my partner and also provides information on additional data I can...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Well, first of all - thank you for taking the time for that reply. I do appreciate your insight. How would you suggest I go about doing this? Should I send e-mail at first with an offer to submit vol. documentation and proofs or should I outright send it all with a letter? I totally agree with...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Well the thing is - I was never asked for any additional documents except at one occasion in the initial review of eligibility for sponsoring and that request was just for better copies of passport size photos and wife's travel history - I complied and sent everything. I didn't send anything...
