Hi guys, I’m living in UAE on a cook visa (residence permit) and I have a Pakistan passport.
I want to visit Georgia (Tbilisi) for about 1 month.
Do I need:
e-visa before travel
visa on arrival
or can I enter directly because I have UAE residence?
Thanks in advance.
Hi everyone,
I just got a paid enquiry reply from UKVI after my 12-week processing time has passed.
They replied:
“We can confirm that your application is still being processed and is currently awaiting a decision.”
My timeline:
Bio: 17 Feb 2026
ECO: 19 Feb 2026
12 weeks completed: 12 May 2026
Paid enquiry submitted: after 12 weeks
Has anyone else received this kind of reply after crossing the timeframe? Does “awaiting decision” usually mean anything positive or just standard wording?
Thanks for any experiences.
My spouse visa application completed 12 weeks yesterday (12 May). I still haven’t received any decision, NSF, clarification request, or delay email from UKVI.
If I count bank holidays, I think I still have around 2 extra working days left (around WD58 currently).
What would you recommend I do now?
Should I wait until WD60 / 15 May, or make a paid inquiry now?
Anyone experienced something similar?
Hi everyone,
Is anyone here with bio early or mid February (standard outside UK) still waiting?
My timeline:
Bio: 17 Feb
Eco: 19 Feb
Category: Standard (Outside UK)
Current status: Still processing
No update after submission
Just wanted to check if anyone in similar timeline is still waiting or if there are any recent updates for February cases.
Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone waiting.

No NSF, no additional document request, no interview, no delay email, no verification contact so far.
My official 12-week timeline ends on 12 May, but there were also 3 UK holidays during processing. I am confused whether I should do a paid inquiry on 12 May or wait a few extra working days first.
What would you do in this situation?
Hi everyone,
I wanted some advice on whether I should do a paid inquiry or just wait.
Bio: 17 Feb
ECO email: 19 Feb
Update: 4 March – “still processing”
Since then, I haven’t received any further updates or decision. As of now, my application is outside the standard processing time, although there were a few bank holidays in between.
Do you think I should go for a paid inquiry at this stage, or is it still better to wait?
Would really appreciate guidance from anyone with similar timelines.
Thanks!
