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

Mercy24 said:
I appreciate the effort here but you need to be careful in how we interpret and present information.
1) It appears that you will get your Stage 1 approval in one month.
It took me 94 days for Stage 1 approval. Current processing times are posted on CIC website. Also, this should not be discounted when calculating total processing time.

2) These 11 months processing time at LVO that were published on the CIC website were based on stats from the previous year when there were no Pakistani cases closed in 2013.
CIC started shifting case files in October 2013 from Islamabad to London. I don't know of any Pakistani nationals that have had their visas granted within 11 months or even close to this timeline.
Seeing the stats of Pakistani applicants that are getting landing papers instead of UK applicants would be more realistic.
Not completely true. Many on this forum had their applications processed within 11-12 months in 2014. Including the thread owner himself tooCareless.

3 years is a very long time. I filed my case on Feb 14/ 2015. Which was Saturday
I know a lot of people and my friends to that got it in like 9 months, 10 months, 11 months
They got approved fast
I am just praying hard. Please get the visa as soon as possible.
I hope everyone gets in within short period (AMEEN)

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).

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.
