Hello All,

Seeking your suggestions here.
I have received AOR. I raised a webform to update my status to married (marriage happened after aor).

My questions:
1. After how many days will CIC ask for additional documentation for spouse? And how much time does it give to upload the documents?

2. The marriage certificate we have is from the WAQF board (Muslim marriage) in English. Is it an acceptable document? If not, what is the way forward? Getting a marriage registered takes 30 days and we will surely be missing the timelines given by CIC in this case.

Thanks.

Marriage certificate is necessary. Nothing else will work.

Also, how long do they take to ask for new documents post webform status change.
And how many days do they give to upload new documents for spouse.

No I haven't added any letter of explanation.
My consultant told me it would suffice as it is in English and is authorised by government of India. Thanks.

This Marriage Certificate is approved only if its in English. If not, just get the translation.
