We have seen recent cases finish in 12-18 months so there is a possibility that the current timeline which is 24 months will reduce to something less but its just an assumption not a valid news or anything...

Now it has certified translation so you can include it in your application. You can check the related instructions in the guide also.

As long as its certified and has a notary seal on the sheet, then it should be ok just send along the original Birth Certificate as well.

Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum but lucky to have found it finally! To cut the story short, my husband received Passport request on October 3, and sent it to them within 3 days. We thought that was the final step and he gave 1 month notice to resign from his job and I booked my tickets to visit him for Eid so that we can come back together. But just today he received a letter from New Dehli asking for a 3rd medical request (this time a TB test).
I don't understand what's happening? Why are they asking for another medical after requesting for his passport? Is it normal? We are so stressed out. Is anyone familiar with this kind of situation? Should we write to CHC-Islamabad to ask what's going on? Please advice. Thanks.

When was the 2nd medical done? Did he receive his 2nd medical request and Passport request together?

Seems like he has some health issues and they want him to do some further testing on him. It clearly mentions on the Passport Request Letter not to take any actions such as resigning and/or booking any tickets untill you have the passport and VISA in your hands and it says that due to reasons like yours. Well, its too late for that, anyways, you don't have to contact ISlamabad because the medical results are sent to New Delhi and thats where they get assessed and updated so he has to go and get whatever is requested and until everything is clear they will not stamp his VISA.

Thanks for your reply.

His 2nd medical was done on August 8, 2011 that was because his 1st medical was expired. Then on September 15th he received another letter to do a lardotic chest x-ray, he got that done on September 28th. And then He received the passport request on October 3rd which was dated October 1.

So clearly, either he has some health issues and/or the DMP didn't perform medicals according to the embassies protocol. Sometimes if the results are not clear they ask the applicant to go under the testing again. As I said they won't stamp his VISA until everything is clear. You can give them a call at the embassy at (92-51) 208-6000, and explain them the situation and see what they have to say but they won't do a specific case inquiry they normally just answer general questions. You can also try to email them but lately they seem to be ignoring everyone's email. so call/email if you get through ask them about whats going on and if you can't get a hold of them then go through what they have asked. You can also try to call New Delhi see if they can tell you the reason for extra testings...

It's very weird. They are asking to do a TB investigation which seems to take about 6-8 weeks and then a repeated Chest X-ray AFTER 12/12/2011. So it seems like we can't expect anything before December 12. Very frustrating. Why can't they do all the tests at one go! Anyway the reasons and options you gave seem reasonable. Will try to contact them and ask for reasons. My husband apparently doesn't seem to have any health issues/concerns. They are asking for history of TB treatment and drug schedules used when he isn't on any!
Thanks again, you were very helpful.
