Standard applications from Pakistan usually take around 3 weeks.

Refusal of MRCS Visitor Visa Applications

UK Visitor Visa applications for MRCS are sometimes refused when exam booking evidence is missing, financial proof is weak, or the ECO doubts the applicant’s intention to return to Pakistan.

Refusal letters often state there is no appeal or Administrative Review. In such cases, a PAP may be served, and if unsuccessful, a Judicial Review (JR) may be pursued.

At UK Visa Consultants, we are specialists in both preparing MRCS visa applications and challenging refusals through PAP and JR. Our lawyers have successfully overturned many such refusals.
