Assalamualaikum folks,

A friend of mine got in touch with the media regarding the ridiculously long spousal visa processing times at CHC-Islamabad. He got a positive response from CBC, who have assigned the renowned journalist Muhammad Lila to this potential story. Muhammad got in touch with my friend and asked him if he could get a number of people who're going through this ordeal and set up a meeting with him. So far there are three of us who are taking the lead on this initiative, but obviously, having a larger group of people will send a much stronger message i.e. the delays are not isolated, but widespread.
I should add a disclaimer that this would most likely NOT affect our cases in a positive way since most of us are a year or more into the process anyway and the process won't change overnight. But the hope is, inshaAllah, that this will bring the issue to light and hopefully prompt the ministry to take action to improve the process for future cases.
So, I'm looking for people who might be interested in taking part in this initiative -- preferably those from the GTA area, but others are welcome too. What we're planning to do is to gather a decent-sized group and set up a meeting with Muhammad Lila in a couple of weeks. I see this forum as the perfect place to get this kind of support. Although I'm a relatively new "member", I've been following this thread for a while now and am impressed by people's attitude and resolve.

If you're interested, please send me an email at m @ hameeds.net (I still haven't figured out the Inbox thing here) with your name and rough location. Once we have a few people, we'll get in touch with Muhammad and try to organize the meeting. We're hoping to get around 20 - 30 people inshaAllah.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I look forward to hearing from you.

JazakumUllah khair,

LOL "at least if he is here he can look after me"!! Those are exact words I had told him! who wants to have a baby without support and love of hubby anyway!! such a drainer to go through the wait and getting having baby alone!!! I really do feel bad for all those sisters who did the whole 9 months alone!!!

Ya it feels great to be at home for few days:) and not work soooo much!!

December will be our 3rd anniversary and we will celebrate it as if it's the first :eek: thanx to this LONG process :mad:

sis, how about u visit MP!! I know they are useless but it will show that you have support behind you!!
I know it is hard enough living without him let alone having the stress of being pregnant and alone at this time. I really feel like especially the first time you need your hubbys suppourt at that time. I'm happy to hear your hubby is making $$$ now mashAllah. Hope you both are enjoying the weather and doing lots of fun stuff.

Oh definately you should make this an anniversary to remember lol just do another wedding celebration :p

Yes I am waiting for the MPs to settle down but I will go see them...but the thing is for me emailing them has worked but when i went in person then next time when i go for update they are like "no you never came here before" as if im an idiot and im making up the fact i went there. The MP secretary is like no u didnt even give ur husbands file number :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

You are not allowed to send personal messages.

Not sure what the issue is. If you could email me, that would be best.

I think a feasible option would be to conference people in. Send me an email so that you're in the loop at least and I guess we'll go from there.

I think that's because you don't have enough posts...I believe there is a number of posts you have to have before you could start using the private message option...

If you have not already received the IMM forms to be refilled. The most probably you will receive IMM forms, re PCCm and remedical and then PPR.
You may send them en email to find the status.

My wife is living in Calgary, Canada. She submitted my documents in 2010.I received a letter from the CHC Islamabad on March 02, 2010, that they start processing my application.After a year later on March 08, 2011 they informed me in the reply of my email that
"My application is currently in process and is in queue for review. Background checks are over for this application".

After the last email on March 08, 2011. I have not received any email from CHC Islamabad.
Do anyone tell me that what's the next process?
How much more time does CHC Islamabad take?

Thanking you in this regard.

Decided to apply for CAIPS... been 1 month since re-medical was done with no word. Wish we were as lucky as those who received PPR with Re-med request, but again the complicated nature of our application is most likely the reason.

Still hopefull our application without ruhksati will be successful, but if CAIPS say otherwise, we will have to make preparations to go to Pakistan sooner then planned :-\
