I have a relative who applied for his wife's sponsorship in April 2014. He submitted all documents including wedding photos, etc. They asked for his wife's Passport now, also a form to fill out regarding height, eye color etc. What is the next step? Are they giving her a visa (is that why they asked for valid passport, with atleast 2 empty pages?) How long after sending her passport should she expect to receive her passport stamped with visa? Her case was being handled by New Delhi (she is in Pakistan) but passport is being sent to Islamabad.
