Doc's Request.
Marriage/certificate(s) For marriages which took place in Pakistan: The marriage certificate to be submitted is the “Nikkah Nama”. It must bear the Nikkah registry seal as evidence that the marriage has been properly registered by the union council or the relevant government authority in the relevant region. The NADRA (National Database and Registration Authority) issued marriage certificate should be included but is not sufficient evidence on its own. This must be received at this office by: 2019/06/29 > Marriage photos: Marriage photos If you were married according to the rites, customs, and/or traditions of this country, please submit printed photos of the principal applicant and the sponsor with relatives and friends. Photos submitted should include photos of the wedding ceremony (signing of the contract or Nikkah) and customary celebrations held afterwards (the wedding reception or the Rukhsati). Photos should also include pictures taken of the principal applicant and the sponsor together on other occasions, either before and/or after the wedding.

Depends on what stage of the process you are on I’d say.
If your AOR2 is already done being in London and you are waiting for next steps whether they are ADR, DM or Pre-Arrival, I’d say even if it’s been 11 months, the stress is not necessary just yet because you could hear something the next day or week and still be one of the 80%.
It's panic process.my file transferd LVO I didn't get AOR2 my my PA stauts we started ur application 9 jan 2020.
Now nothings any news even 56 remaining.

A lot of people are getting PPR within 10 days of Pre-arrival so if anyone is still waiting for pre-arrival while at month 10 or 11, they still have a lot of time to be under the 12 month limit. A lot of Feb/March/April applicants still have not heard anything from LVO but I think most of them will soon.

Afterall, they do say on GCkey that most of the activity on the file will be towards the end of the 12 month period.

We have not gotten pre-arrival yet (12 1/2 months total now) but we do get requests for another medical to be done even though the one we already got doesn’t expire till April 18th and we get updates about the file through our MP and IRCC say they still need to do security and background check still and it’s past a year now. I understand where a lot of us come from and it’s extremely frustrating. Hopefully between now and April, my wife and I can actually have the case get a decision soon. Only hope is left but even that is dying fast...

You still have two months before you become part of the 20% according to what you said. Progress will come so there is no need to panic. I sent additional docs on Nov 26, 2019 and had to wait till today to finally get progress even if it another medical being requested. It takes time...

That could be because the applicant needs to land in Canada before their medical expires. As you have less than 2 months left, even if LVO makes descision within the next 4 weeks, the applicant will have only a few days left to come to Canada. So they ask for remdical so you have don't have to rush
This could be one of the reasons.

Yep. That is what my wife’s status shows as as well under additional documents on GCKey even though an inquiry done in January confirmed they had seen the documents by now so that’s just the default status for that. It’s very likely that they have seen and processed yours by now. :)
