    Ray of Hope - 83rd Draw

    A lot can happen in 40-45 days. The score might come down and you may receive ITA, on the other hand, Ontario can close their intake for applications as well. I'm afraid there's nothing certain with IRCC. I made the same decision as yours, waited for 3 weeks on the Ontario NOI and just when I...

    HEC Attestation for WES .....Degree already attested from HEC Pakistan

    You will need to get copies of your degree and transcript attested and sealed in an envelope by the HEC themselves. And then mail the sealed envelope to WES. You don't have to send original degrees.

    Only PIA offers direct flight to Toronto. But there are always question marks over their service. Someone I know recently travelled via Etihad Airways and the flight time including layover was 21 hours with a much better service. I'm planning to get the tickets in the coming week after checking...

    Only CHC Islamabad can give you any surety about that. But yes, they do mention 14 days as their average time for visa stamping. As far as I have observed them, they do the stamping in batches, so it can happen within a week if there are sufficiently enough applicant who have submitted their...

    Firstly congrats on receiving PPR. Regarding CHC Islamabad, they have been very inconsistent with their timelines in the past. There are people who got theirs in 60 days and those who got their passports back in a week. I submitted my passport on 1st November and got it back on 22nd November. So...

    Need Help in Post ITA Application - Multiple Queries

    1 - Not sure about this one. But I'd have said yes just to stay on the safe side. You'll need a notarized same name affidavit, mentioning both your names. 2 - Just leave the P.O. Box field blank if it allows, otherwise, write NA. 3 - Yes you can. They don't send any mails anyways. 4 - You can...

    Urdu nikah mama query - urgent

    If you have the Marriage Registration Certificate issued by NADRA, it will work. Try to get that. Otherwise, original nikah nama, its notarized copy, notarized translation and notarized affidavit by the translator have to be provided. I provided both the NADRA issued certificate and Urdu Nikah...

    1 - No, you need two different applications. 2 - I'm not sure about now, but when I got my ECA, it was mandatory to get FSc marksheet and certificate attested by concerned board, and not IBCC. Someone who has recently gone through the process will be in a better position to guide you on this...

    Yeah I had that one. I provided it but I had a friend who was asked to submit his Nikah Nama later, as an ADR. Therefore, I provided both the NADRA Marriage Certificate along with Nikah Nama to rule out any delays due to ADR.
