You gotta do what you gotta do. If they ask you to send Rukhsati Pics, you do not have any other options but to send them what they are asking. Its not your parents who are going to decide if you get the visa but unfortunately the ball in the court of the visa officer now. The role of your parents and for that matter the parents of your husband, has ended after they decided to do the arrange marriage for their kids. Now you or better your husband need to take charge and ensure that Rukhsati is done ASAP. Parents do not have sufficient knowlege about visa complications and they decide according to what they know and what they know is not necessarily practical in all circumstances.mahi nori said:it is not that i m denying the importance of rukhsati n reception but the thing is that it was a complete arrange marriage n i was studying at that time so all the thing were decided mutualy between the parents themselves n they did what they though rite actualy unluckily u were not there to tell them the importance of rukhsati n reception.........
If you dont do Rukhsati then you would be sitting away from your husband for another couple of years because you will NOT get the visa. Period.
CIC operates according to its own way and any screaming and hollering we do about the way they operate does not change the way they do things. Afterall we are just lowly applicants who want to get reunited with our loved ones.
