Re-send the photographs and any latest updates by courier. Keep the tracking # for your reference.
And when you're sending the photos, no harm in sending them a copy of the medical completion (receipt).
Include a short letter telling them date of medical completion, and mention when the photos were sent before. Send them more photos.

If they don't get everything in time and make an assessment, they may put file in interview queue. So to avoid this, be proactive and send them photos and any other ongoing proof of relationship, etc so its in file when they review it next.

Order GCMS notes every 3-4 months to keep check on it until PPR is received.
Also, your sponsor should also inquire via their Canadian local MP about the file every now and then.
Hi, thank you for the reply! I will get that done this week hopefully! I am the sponsor, and where and how do I contact my MP?

My MP's response: "the case is in early stages and the eligibility has not been made yet and there is a lot of work yet on this file. The medical is valid until Dec. 8, 2016. As the file progresses, and when the eligibility is passed, your husband will be asked to do another medical as it is only valid for 1 year. The average processing time for files from Pakistan is 25 months"

I've given up! :'(

guess what, rsk8 got the exact same response from her MP about two weeks before her husband got PPR. see her post here: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/spousal-sponsorship-pakistan-london-visa-office-t203899.0.html;msg5276067#msg5276067

better not to ask them again until they actually start opening up files from december, because all they do is drag us down with their 25 month averages.

i visited my MP today and had a lengthy discussion with them about everything that's been going on, but unfortunately none of their answers really satisfied me. all we can do is wait until november gets out of the way, which as i've said before should be soon insha allah.

I wake up every day with hope to see changes to the spreadsheet :'(

Inshallah I guess I'll be patient until next week as you pretty much guaranteed me that I should see something starting next week. If it doesn't happen, Flx you better watch out! :mad: I'm coming for ya!

Ps thanks for making me feel a bit better about the response. I'm seriously at my wits end! :'( :'(

yeah, anywhere in the last 10 days of august is where my bet is. i don't know whether they're going to do it one by one or in a batch like they did with the october group, but i am excited nonetheless.

and i can't believe that in 3.5 months i'll be at the 12 month mark. i worry too. had to let out a few tears today because of how much i'm missing my wife... couldn't even talk to her because it's currently night time in pak and she's fast asleep.

I can't believe I made it to the 8 month mark. It hasn't been easy though.

Tell me about it! After I came back from my trip, I'm having serious withdrawals especially every time I look at my phone and my daughter asks 'so do you miss dad?' :'(

May Allah make it easy for us all!

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

so i just found out that syedarslan111 also got a doc + remed request on july 20th and 21st, respectively. crazy how EVERY november applicant apart from wazim87 and hamzahafeez have gotten additional requests... and i see the same thing on the LVO spreadsheet as well, so i know it's not specific to pakistani applicants.

did LVO's visa officers pick up some kind of additional document disease while they were in the middle east?

Mostly proof of communication and pictures and if something is missing..plus remedical is another thing which they are asking from almost everyone because they are nowadays opening the application in 9-10th month and the medical expires in 12th month.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Dear Friends,
I received the e mail from LVO for medical and also after a day they asked me to send passport copies and "updated family information chart" by Email.
My question is that this demand of passport copies is PPR1? or PPR1 will be sent later?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
