Since we paid priority our solicitor said it would be no longer than 3 weeks. Clearly that’s not the case lol going on our 4th week wait.
Fingers crossed this will be our week.

My job ends this week.

Me too! Let's see what happens

Last if you guys remember, the lady from the USA who applied for priority visa from Pennsylvania on Oct 9th, She got her visa day before yesterday.. With in 19 working days... !!

I am checking my UPS tracker every day... Also trying to see if the UK Visa Tracker works...

Did you guys ever use something called TLS?? What is it?

The visa tracker doesn't work for our apps because we all applied from outside the UK.

It doesn't apply to US applicants.  Applicants from several other countries have to use TLS as part of their application process. Here's the page for France for example.

And all the countries which use the service https://uk.tlscontact.com

Ours said exactly the same. We even booked her flights to the UK as our solicitor said it would be fine. More expense and hassle *sigh*

Oh boy...  Even UKVI tells you not to book anything until you have your visa in hand!

I'm afraid I'm only familiar with USA applications.  I don't want to give advice as it could be incorrect.  Well, will be incorrect!  Immigrationboards.com has many applicants from Pakistan and even an entire thread dedicated to Pakistan applications.  I'm sure they can provide accurate information.

It's already been advised by the lovely.ladies of the forum to not trust things from the  Facebook groups.

I would think so! You still have quite a bit of wiggle room, November's 2nd week just started. I would bet you will be just fine
