Dear All,

I want guidance about the following:

Is it acceptable to IRCC if I provide a notarized translation of my urdu nikahnama instead of Nadra-issued marriage certificate? I cannot have the Nadra one prepared due to a pending Nadra divorce certificate that cannot be made due to incomplete Government data and non-cooperating ex-inlaws.

Moreover, when my marriage took place few years ago, there was no existence of Nadra-issued marriage certificate.

Please guide.

Regards.

Yes. IRCC sometimes require urdu translation of original nikaah nama over Nadra.

So i think its safe to just submit the translated nikaah nama copy instead of Nadra.

You can submit original Urdu nikah nama as well as translated. I'm sure you will be fine

I talked to an IRCC accredited immigration agent recently. They said that IRCC only accepts Nadra marriage certificates. I am really confused now.

Nadra is federal agency and the paper provided them are more authentic then any other manual nikah nama, i suggest go with nadra nikah nama whihc is in nadra paper and signed by a signatory authority...and no tension for translation as well..

Hi Guys,

I need help.

Recently I received an email from Visa officer from Canada, Who's asking for Nikkah Nama.

Though I've submitted - Nadra Marriage certificare - Urdu Nikkah nama with Notary Translation - after translation they wrote Marriage Certificate on translation in english instead Nikkah Nama since its urdu word.

Again I received the email from Visa officer and asked below

Hello,


We already have the civil marriage certificate – please also upload/email the nikaah nama.


So this time again did the translation by Notary and sent him by stating that Nikkah Nama / Marriage Certificate on the translation by notary. so he will understand Nikkah Nama is the Urdu word and Marriage Certificate is english.

Can you guys help me with this - If i am going to right direction or do i have to find out any certified translation for canada ? I belongs to Karachi and living in Abroad.
