Stop scaring people. What are you saying?

Immigration at airport in Pakistan (FIA), only stamps passports, they don't SIGN them. What do you mean by signing?
With an immigration visa and COPR, FIA has no legal authority to STOP anyone, unless there is evidence of tampering with any documents.
Most people these days have MRP (computerized passports), so it's a moot point nowadays.

Thousands of women travel and come to Canada to join their husbands, without any issues at borders. Yeah the officials may ask for money/bribe, but if all your documents are in order and issued by the Embassy, there should be no issue at all. those custom and FIA staff are just trying to make money that's all. There is absolutely no requirement to show nikahnama's at airport(s) anywhere in the world. It's just that people are too nervous or scared to give them the right answer. How can anyone not get through, given that almost everyone in Pak knows how to operate the latest smartphones and gadgets? Can't they record audio or video of these airport staff without them knowing??

People should be confident when traveling through Pak's airports, that's all....they only hassle those who are not confident, or very nervous, etc.

All major airlines servicing Pakistan have women and children traveling on them, PIA is nothing special. Believe it or not, it is on PIA aircraft that these so-called men are a problem, on foreign airlines they don't dare to do anything because they know what will happen to them. PIA's employees are always in the news these days, mostly bad. Remember the drunk PIA pilot who got arrested in the UK very recently? God forbid what would have happened if he flew the flight from UK to Pak?
The glory days of PIA are gone. Now there is competition and PIA is almost non-existant,rather, wiped out by its own people/employees.

My advice is, take anything BUT PIA. Because when delays happen, at least other airlines have extra aircraft and you won;t be left without accomodation.
This is what you think about the security staffs at the Airports in pakistan,
anyhow i shared the experience of my elder sister, believe it or not, nobody bothers.........
further selection of airlines , choices are unlimited...............

I think you pay the fees online thru credit card or what ever is convenient you dont have to go through any Pakistani bank .. but I paid all the fees when I was sending my file to Mississauga and just attached my receipt to it ..so I dnt know what steps you will have to take to ensure the fee payment

khair Pakistan mai toh itni jugaar hai ke you can easily find a relative working at the airport and they can issue you or your spouse a pass to go inside with whoever is going to Canada .. and if u r going alone for the 1st time you can ask for connections at the airport and someone from Jerry's dnata or some other place can be with you the whole time ..my husband came inside with a pass to pick me up till the immigration and when I was coming back inside he came in till the immigration point as well.

yes, the same situation was with my sister, so i shared here,
you know at that point that officer told her, that he will talk to canadian embassy,how and why they issued you the visa etc etc......
then she started crying and came out from the airport,then all family told her " fir say jao aur bold ho k baat karo, kuch nai karay ga, then she went inside, aur security officer ko kaha, k " agar mayra plane nikal gaya tu muj sy bura koi nai ho ga" bus nak muah charaty howy os nay sign kar dia... duration of the entire process was abt 50 mnts,

So, my wife just got a call from CHC representative today.

Well, we made a little error. She had studied in Islamabad in a university for 2years and when they asked for the repcc with just sent the one that she is currently at. (Thought being a women with no criminal activity, it wouldn`t be a major problem). However, CHC is very picky on that. The agent called (nice mannered), told her to quickly send pcc of Islamabad (and that all her other docs are passed and good). They also stated that heR case is on "fast track" (whatever that means) and if she had sent the pcc of ISB, her case would be done by now. Anyhow, he said we could have sent a letter, but we called because we want to finish the cases so send it asap. (Means ppr are coming).

What i got out of this is:

-They don't review file prior to re-med (mainly). They look at it in great details after. (He was stating out dates written on the papers and other docs)
-They do criminality/eligibility/security checks after remed.
-They usually open remed files within a month (been 30days we sent in the documents)
-They have two tracks "fast track" cases and "the rest"
-PPR are coming InshaAllah.

SEND THEM ALL DOCUMENTS, WE THINK THEY DON'T NEED IT. OR THEY WONT LOOK AT THIS. THEY DO!!.
