The British High Commission yesterday issued a statement about the UK visa application process, including the current processing times, and a warning about the activities of unscrupulous agents.
“We decided to make this announcement because we are aware that unscrupulous agents are exploiting some applicants and giving them misleading visa information. These agents are taking money to arrange appointments at the visa application centres and encouraging applicants to submit fraudulent applications. It is important that our customers know that there is no charge for appointments and fraudulent applications will be refused and mean longer processing times for everyone” said Director of Visa Services, Peter Chaplin.
“We have taken a number of measures to improve the service to customers and prevent abuse of the visa system.”
“All applicants must obtain an appointment to submit their visa applications. They do this by telephoning Gerry’s on 0900 10411 or 8865 from a mobile phone. Gerry’s have taken on more staff to respond to the increased number of calls and requests for appointments.”
“We are seeing more fraudulent visa applications. As a result, genuine applicants wait longer for their visas, as visa officers are required to carry out extensive anti-fraud checks. We would ask applicants not to listen to agents who say that they can guarantee them a visa and that it is easy to do so using forged documents. Agents have no power to guarantee visas. We will detect false documents and, through the biometrics process, we will detect all false identities. This kind of abuse of the visa process will result in the visa application being refused and the applicant risking a ban on travel to the UK for the next 10 years.”
“We would like to remind customers that visa application forms are free of charge and available from the Gerry’s website: www.ukvacpk.com. It is important that these application forms are completed fully.”
“Currently, customers need to allow the following number of weeks for end to end processing: approximately 4 weeks if the application is made at Mirpur Visa Application Centre (VAC), 5 weeks at the Islamabad VAC and 6 weeks at Lahore and Karachi VACs. The processing times are available and regularly updated on Gerry’s website, www.ukvacpk.com”
“We welcome genuine visitors to the UK and are working hard to make the waiting times shorter. We would ask our customers to make their visa applications in very good time before they intend to travel and not to take up the services of unscrupulous agents”

Hey Anosha,
You know what, I submitted my documents on 19 March, 2009 and still haven’t get any news from them.
Although, I went three times after 19 March to submit my finger prints and last time was on September 3rd. So You have to be patient and UK embassy is facing some serious system problems and also they have stopped Pakistanis to go there for security concerns.
My wish to go there is going to die as they are taking tooooo much time to process, there are almost 6 months have gone but no new yet!!!!!
Did you apply for student Visa? Also, sorry to say that your yahoo email is incorrect…
Thanks and remember me in your prayers,

Parveen,
I went to Visa Center on September 3rd to submit re- finger prints for third time and I got several people there who had been applied for visit visa since 2nd Feb.
A lady was also came there for third time and she said that there was a marriage ceremony of her daughter on April 18th but did not able to attend that as she is also victim of pending process. She came there also third time with me to submit finger prints. But she was really disappointed and fed up with Gerry’s.
So you have to wait but how much dont know….

Have not contacted Abudhabi yet but will on Monday to get their status. I need to definitly be there before 20th in order to confirm accomodation and stuff and well this Visa wierd phsycho thing is kinda killing me…………………………………………..I hope Inshallah all of us get our Visas all proper done and good ASAP like in the next couple of days to end the agony. However I just wanted a reference, that off all who are active on this forum please state whether u are from karachi or not and how many weeks has it been…. for me its been 7 weeks… well above the 6 week thing that is circulated around so am going crazy now!!!

hi there again,,,, i would suggest that stop waiting and try to make your self busy in something else, as dont worry you will get your visas atlast….and have all of you got extension? then its totally fine…or even i woud suggest that write an email to your respective admission offices of the college or universities and try to update them about your visa delays and they will deffinately accomodate you…..
as i have submitted mine on 27th of August from Mirpur VAC . for tier4 student visa…and i`m from lahore ….i just got late for submission so i asked my university to give me some more time extension by emailing them….and they were so nice that the course director sent me a scanned certificate of extension on which she wrote to bhc islamabad that please give him a visa as soon as possible, if usman is not able to join us on 28th of september then we can keep his place on hold over the coming months……so i print it out and aatached wid my application….as my orientation classes were from 7th sept and latest date i cud join was 28th sept…..but now i`m tension free…….so u guys should do the same i mean atleast just inform them about delays and they will deffinately give u a favour

People who got their passport back already, did gerry’s call you to tell you that your passport is back or did your status change online to ‘ready for collection’? I am worried that gerry’s might not be able to contact me through phone because my phone often doesn’t work, so i am counting on the website to show that my passport is ready to be picked up. I applied on 13th July too and i am so worried now.

Okay, i applied on 24 july from lahore. And considering that i had arrived back from the uk on the same day. And that i already hold five british visas, one of which is still valid for another four years. I should’ve recieved my passport by now, but what i gather from all this is that your previous visa’s might not essentially make you a special candidate. So, we must wait some more! Good luck all

@ eshawh. I’ve got a multiple visit visa, which sadly doesn’t qualify for a student one or can be transfered into one.

Hello all
I came thru a case i can relate to which i am posting below. If anyone of you is going thur RE-BIO case kindly inform me and share experiences.
”
THE NEWS- UK VISA WOES- Wednesday, September 02, 2009, Ramadan-ul-Mubarak 11, 1430 A.H
I applied for a six-month tourist visa for the UK on March 3 through the Gerry’s Visa Application Centre in Karachi. Six weeks later I went to retrieve my passport only to be informed that I must reapply. I was assured that the second application would take less time for the security checks had already been conducted; it was my fingerprints that had been unreadable due to a “corrupted file,” and an error caused by Gerry’s. I reapplied on April 27, and since then have been made to run around in circles regarding the whereabouts of my passport.
The UK embassy in Islamabad claims Abu Dhabi has my passport; Abu Dhabi claims it has been under security checks for almost three months. I was told that to withdraw my application I must send an official form to Islamabad, which I did. Two days later I received a call from the embassy in Islamabad saying they had misinformed me, and that this form should have been mailed to Abu Dhabi. Finally I managed to file an official petition to have my visa application withdrawn and my passports and documents mailed back to me. This request has yet to be honoured. Moreover, the embassy in Islamabad refuses to respond to my emails. The embassy in Abu Dhabi refuses to respond to many emails or my request in writing. They also do not give out their phone number.
Due to the incompetence on the part of Gerry’s and the lack of concern and professionalism displayed by the administration at the embassies both in Islamabad and Abu Dhabi, I have been without a travel document for almost five months. Without this, I was unable to appear for the GRE, which set back my education plan for a year. I have wasted the only vacation I get as a lecturer, in a perpetual wait. I have had to cancel three flight bookings, and have lost time and money.
I respect and appreciate that security checks are required to keep nations safe. I have lived in England for three years, studied in the US for four, and in Ireland for one year, and each time I have returned to my country of origin. All the while many people (and not just Pakistanis) are found living illegally in the UK.
Clearly this whole process is a flawed one. For this reason I would appreciate advice from anyone as to how I may obtain my current passport to which all previous passports are attached and which document my travel history for over two decades. I request that the embassies in Islamabad and Abu Dhabi, for the umpteenth time, that my passports and all else that is duly mine, please be returned to me immediately.

I applied for my kid’s visa as my Tier 1 (General) Dependants on March 24, 2009. We also gave the biometrics at the same time and were told that it will approximately take 15-20 days to process their application. But after 6 WEEKS we were called for the biometrics again due to some technical error in the system. So we submitted the biometrics again on May 11, 2009.
Now the situation is that its almost 4 months to the second biometrics and still there is no reply. I am continuously checking the application status online and it is giving me the same status i.e. ‘Application Forwarded to Islamabad OC on….”

i got reply from BHC islamabad
Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you for your e-mail enquiry. This is to inform you that whilst the visa application has been processed at Abu Dhabi, this still has to be in a queue for further process at BHC Islambad before it is returned to the applicant through Gerrys’. Due to seasonal heavy intake of visa applications, there is a backlog with long processing queue. Therefore we are unable to give you an exact time frame.
Soon as Gerry’s have the documents they will call the applicant for delivery. Please keep visiting the website http://www.ukvacpk.com to monitor progress on your visa application and wait patiently to be contacted through Gerry’s in due course.
Yours truly
you should get extension from ur uni….bcoz these guyz really take much time….

hello everyone,
I submitted my passport on 7th July at khi office and im also still waiting for my passport to come back. my classes are starting on 24th of sep and I am told to get extenssion for one month. they don’t care, all delay is caused by there mistake and wrong decision and we are punished. Its frustrating to wait for your visa when one knows that he will leave when this important doc will come back from gerrys. Allah help us all

Updates from UK border agency website.
11 September 2009: Student Tier 4 applications – processing times Pakistan.
Due to IT problems, there is likely to be some disruption to UK Border Agency visa application processing for student tier 4 applications. Unfortunately, the time taken to process applications is likely to increase. All student (tier 4 points-based system) applications are being prioritised. The UK Border Agency is working to resolve the current IT problems and apologises to customers for any inconvenience caused.

I applied for a 5 year busines visa on 2nd June in Lahore & still waiting today! Emailed BHC Islamabad & Abu Dhabi many many times, but no help. One email did state that application was concluded in Abu Dhabi 21st June but status still shows as “Fowarded to Islamabad OC on”. Making me crazy!!
Anybody else still waiting that applied in June?? How much longer can I be expected to wait?? I have held UK visa before & travalled to UK many times, but reading some of the posts I guess that is going against me as regards security checks??
If only could be given proper idea as to how long it is going to take, instead of keep being told “shortly”……

Well guess, I applied on 27th August as menionted above for Tier 4 Student. And i first called Abu Dhabi on 14th sept and no decision was made by that date. I again called them today, on 17th sept and a decision has been made(Allahumdilalah) and my passport has been sent to BHC islamabad. NOw i hope that it is a positive decision and I get it soon:) InshAllah!
You guess should call BHC abu dhabi and confirm the status of your applications. It does not have any affect on your application. They are very nice people and ready to answer your queries, whatever they are allowed to tell.

Dear Friends,
I applied a Visitor Visa (6 months) on the 29th June 2009 and since then my application is in process. Upon my sever contacts with the British Embassy in Abu Dabhi, i was informed that a decision has been made and the information has been sent to BHC, Islamabad. Its been almost 1 month since then. Can anyone tell me whats the cause of this delay and how long should i still wait to get my passport back.

I have applied for a Student VISA PBS on 21 August 2009, my classes started on 21 September and they have provided me an extension for 2 weeks .. I wanted to know the people who have contacted the Abu Dhabi, did they contact through phone or emailed them ? Should I contact the Abu Dhabi Office ? My friend got a VISA in a 35 days ..

I wish I could beat up his a**….. Frustration is increasing day by day, cant understand what to do. However, Now just praying to almighty allah.

Well, you may read the comments above. There is a lot of fluctuations. MAny applicants have not got their visas considering that they applied in June and July. Whilst some applicants of august have got theirs. You may assume that it might take a month. BHC claims 25 working days. Btw, which university are you going to?Undergraduate or postgraduate?

@Murtaza, I submitted my passport on 11th of august after an allowed appeal ( student visa ) , but still I have not heard anything by Gerrys or BHC. Moreover, I sent an email to BHC,Islamabad and they said, my email has been forwarded to Casework section for an acknowlegment and they will update me accordingly. As far as I can tell, UK government deleberately delaying visas especially for pakistani nationals. Please take a look visa processing guidance at UKBA website, then you will come to know what I mean exactly.

Actually guys, the problem is that our decisions are made from abu dhabi. That takes time. Plus i dont know what they do here in Islamabad which also leads to a further delays. In the previous years, it was not that worse. Students used to get visas in 4 days in 2006 2007. And then last year, a friend of mine got it in 1.5week. But now.. huh!

Attention ti all settelment visa applicants, hope this could help about the visa processing time.
“Settlement visa applications in Pakistan. Please note that the UK Border Agency is currently meeting its target processing time of 12 weeks for the majority of settlement applications. It is taking the full 12 weeks to process settlement applications so please do not make any enquiries about your application before this 12 week period. Enquiries regarding the processing time of your settlement application will not be replied to unless the 3 month period has passed. We recommend that you take this into account when making your settlement application to avoid any disappointment.”

I recommend you to contact your university and tell them about embassy processing delay time cuz of their sever IT problems. University likely to accomodate you as its not ur fault. My classes started from 23rd sept and i had extension upto 7 oct, now its renewed to 16th oct. My two other friends applied on 26th aug and they called abu dhabi and one friend decision has been made and other one’s likely to be made soon and likely to get passport back within this or next week inshallah. Contact your university and also call abu dhabi 0097126101539 best wishes!

unfortunately you will not be able to travel to the UK on your student visa after oct, 9th because the immigration officer will ask for your extension letter upon arrival and because the date would be stated you will not be allowed to enter the UK. I would advice you to confirm with someone else too.

Dear All
I’ve been in UK myself for six years did my Masters and came back in 2006.
I am really disappointed to see that all the above guys and girls are almost dieing after UK visa and they are literally begging BHC.
Remember one thing: Plz show some dignity and Ghairat and stop begging them. I’ve seen more than 90% of our students while abroad on student visas are working extremely disgusting jobs( Factories, security guards, dish cleaning, hotel servents,butcher shops etc)and for this prupose they are keep on extending their visas every year.
Secondly i was so disappointed to see girls from pakistan specially karachi, that they do the most shameless things over there.They are so desperate after getting UK PP and for this purpose the can go to any extent.
I’ve seen that myself in Glamnorgan uni. Pls pls if you are a muslim even by name, show some dignity and islamic values. Its a shame for the parents of all those girls students.
Stop begging BHC for visa and when u r there dont forget that we are muslims. To hell with so called freedom (women).Single girls should never be allowed to travel aone at 1st place as they dont go for studies but ?????????????????????
We Pakis dont have any respect in these countries simply because of our own actions as we are dieing to go there and adopt their culture.
All the mails above shows that how desperate we are and further shows that we are a sick nation.
The situation we are in is nothing but ” Ye hamare Aamal ki saza he Allah ki taraf se”. All those who are showing this much concern for the sake of Bull shit UK visa, have they ever shown any concern when they dont offer Faraz Namaz?
When they dont observe Fasting?
When our women have stopped even to bother abt they way they are dressing up?
Where Parada has become Galli for these so called moderates?
Where Parents are least bothered abt their kids offering Namaz and becoming good muslims first, but they are more cocerned abt how to send their kids to Europe no matter what it takes.
Such socities have vanished in history and we need to Revert back to Allah for our life styles else
we’ll be treated by others the way they treating us now ( my frustrated fellow brothers and sisters above ).
May Allah forgive all of us for our sins and bless Paksitani nation with some Ghairat and Iman.

@Abid Khan,
Well you know what dude, your are kind of sick person i assume…..you’ve lived your life over there and done what you wanted…huh..and saying we are begging.I like you to refresh your memory and think when you begged to BHC for visa, how was it then?..For GOD sake, We know who we are and u know you’ve also just proved that you are one of those guys that you mentioned above.
You can express yourself also with some dignity but look what you’ve done…Bro no offence but you lived your time in an awful place…I’ve seen there many guys mashallah got close to thier religion when they experienced non muslim community..and I also have experienced there, Girls who didn’t care of thier dress in Paki started HIJAAB in UK.
I would also like to add that these people here are not begging, they are anxious because they’ve spent thier money and precious time and waiting for they are being committed..they are exuasted and frustrated and kicking out thier feelings..(hope you understand feelings)Is this Wrong?
We don’t need to defend ourselves.Stop reminding about your so called “GHAIRAT”.
I don’t want to comment on your religious stuff becuase whom to i am answerable he is watching me and know me best.

I forgot to mention one imp thing.
Pls dont abuse ur purpose of stay in UK as well by engaging urself in activities that are against the norms and vlaues of that country.
If u r a student behave like one.
Try to finish ur studies by all means and do not extend ur visas for the sake of living in UK from fake colleges and uni ( their used to be plenty).
Never try to get visas by forge means as this actions will deprive so many genune candidates plus
it’ll bring a bad name to our country.
Remember u r representing pakistan where ever u go, so plz behave like a good Pakistani.
Last but not the least, Believe in urself and YOur God, and observe Namaz. Inshallah you’ll be successful.

But i Love Pakistan more than anything and i am a proud Puskhtoon and Pakistani.
Simply its really ridiculous to watching these silly scenes infront of UK embassy and Gerry’s office by we Pakis. Why? Becuz we have lost faith in Allah & that

[Reply]
Salam to All,
I applied for my visa 25th of September and now tracking my PP it shows the message

Hey guys, need an important information. How much important is an extension letter? If the date on my visa letter is 9th october, and i travel at a date later then 9th october, lets say on 12th or 15th, is it necessary to have an extension letter, though univerity has allowed me to come late after 9th.?
Secondly, if it is very important, is an electronic extension letter acceptable? Like I can ask uni to scan it and send it to me and I may print it and take it with myself. Will that suffice?

I asked all the admission officers of Manchester to extend course date. They have refused me. But I heard all passports will be back by next week. All we can do is wait ..
although you contact Preparation For Life (PFL) .. they are the official representatives in Pakistan

@ Kamran niazi
yes pfl are my consultants..i really wish that they give me some extention..i donot want to waste a year..more extention is really required..
[Reply]
I am hoping to get it VISA on Monday or Tuesday, PFL told me that VISAs are coming and they are hopeful that the students will get it in the next week. If you get your VISA a day later then your last date, you can scan it and send to Manchester through PFL, Manchester isnt giving anymore extension until we have a VISA and nobody knows when we are getting it. Nobody wants to take a year off .. me neither, but things are screwed and we don’t have a choice .. I hope we get it in the next week and Manchester will accommodate. I have booked every flight to Manchester .. you do the same ..

Hi guys
my name is umar and i work in london as a Trainee Chartered Accountant on a work permit. My bro applied for a student visa on 28 aug and since then i have tried to locate his passport on vfs global and gerrys website but everytime i do that, it says “invalid search”. I got this mail from abu dhabi saying that they have processed the application and he should be hearing from gerry’s soon but its been over a week eince i got that mail but still no word. Did anyone apply in late aug and got the visa?
also his classes were due to start in sep but i have enrolled him for nov classes now and i have got a new visa letter for that. Does he need to send this new visa letter to BHC or he would just have to present this to the immigration officer. I myself came to the uk on a student visa about 4years ago but things werent that bad during my time. Any help or suggestion would be much appreciated.
thanks

Dear my friendz.
I know about the visa situation in pakistan, and the process time.really its weird.its taking so much time, and now they are transferring embassy back to pakistan which is good but what about the applications.so they are gnna start again our previous applications process in pakistan.now i dnt understand y they r doing this.
[Reply]
Dear All visa Applicants
Its important to know that there some fraud ppl sitting outside Gerry’s int. Islamabad, and though
they normally only provide services for application filling, but they are involved in a very pathetic and disgraceful business too.
They tell ppl that they can expedite ur case, and will return ur pp in 10 or 15 working days.
Its all bull shit. they charge too much for this fraud service as all they do is to ask someone from embassy (internal source ) abt individual status of case, and they know the the time roughly that when is the possbile date of decision.
These days there are atleast four ECMs instead of One ( previously) and all pending cases will be decided more or less in Nov. so pls stay away from them and dont trust them.

Kindly note that i have submitted my Tier 4 Student application on 6th may and my class date was 20th july and now its 4th of november…My extention time, Acceptance letter,TB test are all expired….I have submitted 4500 pounds a full year fee with Bank statement of 3000000 Pakistani rupees in my personal bank statement which i actually maintained from the last one year..
So i think my case is the worst one in all the above cases.Please pray for me…

Dear Friends,
Bhc Islamabad and Abudhabi didn’t call me once for any kind of resubmission of my documents.I emailed them several time but they are just sending me the same email again and again from the last 5 months.
“My application is being processed and the decision will be made shortly”.
I dont know what to do
[Reply]
Mail recieved today from BHC
Ref:1610556
Thank you for your e-mail. This is to inform you that your visa application is still under process with ongoing checks. We are unable to give you an exact time frame. Application cannot be concluded until all checks are completed. Please wait to be contacted through Gerry’s in due course.
I have talked to the Gerry’s manager today. She told me the reality that there are almost 15000 tier 4 student applications and 9000 Apeal cases which are still in a backlog….with no processing time frame.
She also told me one other important thing people who had applied for the withdrawl of their apllications are still waiting from the last 2 months with no passport…
[Reply]
@ Khalil shah
Bro don’t worry it will b alright… tell me have u called on abu dhabiz helpline?? what was their reply?? if u haven’t then call them on
0097126101539
plz give me gerry’s managerz num…
[Reply]
Sorry dear, I don’t have Manager’s number. I met her 2 ,3 days back in Jerry’s Islamabad office…Her name is Miss Maria…But she told me that she has nothing in her hands….Only email is the solution of this problem..
[Reply]
I am hoping to send my husbands visa settlement papers soon. I just want to know if my case will get rejected because i am working but being paid in cash. I cash that money into my bank myself. My employer does not pay bank account to bank account. Will that be a problem?
[Reply]
SALAMZ SARAH IF U PAYING THE TAX FROM YOUR SALARY THEN DOESNT METTA FOR GETTING PAID IN CASH. BUT YOU MUST NEED TO SHOW PROPER EMPLOYER LETTER AND PROPER ACCOMODATION PAPERS. REMEMBER ONLY A DOCUMENT CAUSES A REFUSAL AND HE HAS TO WAIT FOR A YEAR OR MORE BECAUSE OF THAT

[Reply]
AOA,
I re-submited my TB test n work permit on 11 th Sep, 2009 and its my fresh case. But as the result of 2 months silence from there side and keep sending them emails they replied that
‘ Please be advised that all non-settlement applications are being assessed in British Embassy Abu-Dhabi and settlement applications are being handled at UK HUB London.
Under the current procedure, Passports are kept by BHC Islamabad for as long as the application is sent to one of the above mentioned UK Visa Operation Centres. After the visa application has been concluded from Abu Dhabi or UK HUB, it still has to be in a queue for further process at BHC Islamabad before it is returned to the applicant through Gerry’s office.
Due to heavy flow of visa applications we have some back log that is why applicants are requested to check their case status on visa application centre’s website at http://www.ukvacpk.com ‘
InshaAllah, I think this information would ease little bit to all all brothers and sisters waiting problems that whats story behind this delay by BHC this time.
I need you all’s special dua for me and all other brothers and sisters. take good care all of u.

no bro my tb certificate will expire on 22nd dec… though they didn’t ask for my acceptance letter but my consultant is saying that ask ur uni to send a visa support letter for next session and send it to “visa.abudhabi@fco.gov.uk”, as many cases have already been released after sending new visa support letter… i have requested my uni 2 send me visa support letter for next session but they didn’t reply yet..
@all
it is my advice to get your visa support letter from ur institutions on urgent basis and send it to the address mentioned above… m also doing the same… best wishes 4 every1…

@ Khan
Thanks khan for the advice..i will do this on urgent basis…And one thing Gerry’s Authorities told me they will clear all backlog before EID
[Reply]
AOA,
Here is one more update regarding delay in processing visa applications at Abu Dhabi and BHC.
The British High Commission in Islamabad has cleared 4000 UK visa appeals cases in the last five weeks, emplying additional temporary staff in Islamabad and Abu Dhabi to clear backlogs and get visa processing operating smoothly.
British Home Office Minister Phil Woolas gave this information in response to a question raised by Lord Nazir Ahmed regarding UK Visa processing times in Islamabad and Abu Dhabi, and Woolas expressed his satisfaction at the good progress.
The Minister said historically there have been high volumes of appeals in settlement and family visitor categories in Islamabad (about 4,000 a month) which have posed challenges.
Woolas also talked of the tough checks introduced by the British Government around the world for anyone applying for a UK Visa.

@Khan you applied for which course and institute etc..and on which date i mean submission date?
[Reply]
I just want to appeal to British High Commission and Mr Alan Johnson Home Sectary UK that there are some other type as well, such as settlement visa and allowed appeal cases etc.
We are victim of these delays as well. Our appeals have been allowed by Asylum and Immigration Tribunal UK. Many people are waiting for so many months for a call and some are waiting for their passport back. I am victim of this process as well I have re submitted my passport and it was 8 months ago. There is a worse condition too. I have been waiting for more then 8 months without a reply. It is indefensible for the British High Commission to take so long just to stamp a visa. And more worrisome is that there is no time frame for such of cases. If we call Gerry’s they say time frame is INDEFINITE which is totally unfair. This inordinate delay made me maid
It is good to learn that the British High Commission has a mind to clear the backlog. I am sure the authorities in British High Commission will take a compassionate view of all visa cases.

Hi everyone,
let me come with a new concern, the appellants from afghanistan are facing a big problem with the government of pakistan, due to this visa delays, ex: the PK embassy in afghanistan give you only stay for 22 days, and the passport gets a long time to return back from the embassy, while returning back to afghanistan the police ask for a lot of money in the border and sometimes refuses to give us exit, in fact my brother’s wife was given the visa in 20 days by the BHC islamabad, but she got call from gerry’s after two months to collect her passport, i hope this problem will be considered in the issuance of visa for afghan citizens, the stay usually is given to them 22 days and the visa should be issued in 19 or 20 days, then the problem will be solved
