Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

gud work :)

right now im more worried about the number of DMs lvo is giving out in the entire week! the state of things looks deplorable and pathetic for us applicants.. if this continues in March we can see average timeline extending to 12-14 months. :( :'(

Back with some more analysis paralysis.

Here is a graph for decision mades per day of the week. Findings are not entirely news to everyone but interesting nonetheless.

Takeaways:
1. Later in the work week the more odds of DMs - Friday is a blessed day lol
2. DMs can happen on weekends (assuming data quality is good) - almost as likely to happen on Saturday than a Monday
3. I hate Sundays


Right Click and Open in New Tab if it doesn't display.

I think it's already extended as this is the 13th month of my case and no update from LVO

But it's wrong why theyou are delaying the case due to interview, ok if they have any concerns or they want to take interviews so it should be scheduled on timely basis.
I know mate but even I have no idea where is the delay

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

We can only pray guyz LVO works faster and everyone those that are in Interview and others as well get DM's in proper time. I know it is really sad and depressing for people waiting for almost more than an year now. Inshallah things will get better.

Yes it is indeed sad. But not necessarily unlike last year. See DMs/Week of the Year.

Here's to hoping they get back to their later-in-the-year levels of activity.

Safe to say... More or less LVO sleeps for first half of the year ...

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

All Over Alhamdulillah.

Passport sent to VFS on Feb 9th and received the stamped passport and COPR today Feb 16th. If I come to think of it, the time I spent to super organize the package before submission probably helped a lot to get approval without additional document request. I can just speculate at this point; however, I'd imagine VO will get less frustrated if application and its content is organized in a way which would help the VO to follow and understand the content easily.

Praying for all of you... InshAllah things will move fast. Soon you all will get to experience that moment when the email notification goes off and you realize it is a PPR :)

Pretty much. It does look like an upward trend towards the mid of the year though after which they slow down again. We thought December would be a bad month due to vacations and stuff but they were super active in December.

Okay I'll stop now.
