I got married in January this year and my wife submitted her visa appllication on the 21st. She has still not heard anyhting from the British embassy in Islamabad. She did phone up and they said they are dealing with a backlog and that she should call back on the 15th May.
Is this normal procedure. How long does it take to process an application and issue the visa when there is a backlog. I am beginning to wonder if she will ever get her visa to come join me here in the UK. Kind of sucks being married and not being together. This should be a simple and straightforward case as I used a lawyer to prepare the visa application. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
