SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Guyz quick question. Fooling cause I am probably just overtly concerned ;D

If you send an email to LVO through ldnimmigtation email is that "logged" in as a record for inquiry in your application like GCMS notes or an MP inquiry?

Yes, all of the MP calls/inquiries + CSE's + GCM requests and Calls are logged.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Great response! But as usual evasive and not the answer we are looking for. Our meds expired last last week and we're waiting for a med request. should we send one voluntarily? What do you think wmate?

You can't do a voluntary remed. You could however request to book an appointment to avoid delay. You should send a CSE 'reminding' them that your meds have expired. Also, probe your MP to look into this for you since your meds have expired.

I am beginning to feel the "CIC Fever" . My left mind is forcing me to inquire about my application since everyone is receiving doc requests ???, my right mind is saying "no" wait and see when they send... . CIC has been sending PFL's like crazy to May/Jun applicants, making me ??? ???..... ;D ;D

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

What do you mean? What did LVO send to you?

Hey Landing_PR,
I got PFL.
They are saying that they are not convinced that our relationship is genuine.
The fact that i only stayed for a week after the wedding is a huge concern to them. I had attached a letter from my employer that said that i could not take time off for that long. Guess that did not help either.
Just very stressed. They have given me 30 days to submit whatever i can to convince them that we actually are married.

OK, so you only have 1 shot to respond to the PFL so take caution and prep well before you send your response. When I received my PFL, I contacted my MP who called me ASAP to talk over how to respond. MP confirmed that we need to respond in order to give them the answer LVO was looking for along with provide explanation. I crafted the cover letter along with the proofs and MP looked over it and reviewed it with me. Once it was perfected, MP sent it over internally to the officer. I also sent it via FedEx + CSE + Email. All were received and confirmed by my GCM notes.

My suggestion is to compile everything together, review and make sure all the areas of concern are addressed and then show them to your MP for a final OK.

There's no harm in inquiring, so inquire

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Received my GCMS Notes - took 25 days.

Below is concerns of the visa officers. I am just posting it here maybe it will help people who is getting PFL's:

Label Eligibility Office: London Text: Eligibility under review No adverse info in record checks No adverse info in record checks — spo. Clean Pakistani pc dated Apr2016. Gaps in personal history on Schedule. Dependants listed on Family Info Form: none Conclusion: Married 14Feb2016 according to nikkah nama. Nikkah nama provided. Age difference is within acceptable norms. First marriage for both. Description on file states that marriage was arranged. Few photos from wedding provided; they do not support statement that wedding was attended by approx. 200 guests, nor do they demonstrate that all traditional celebrations have been observed, such as the rukhsati. There is an explanation that rukhsati was not celebrated because Spr had to return to Canada where he is residing permanently and that they are planning to celebrate rukhsati when Pa receives her PR visa. This is a concern, because weddings in Pakistan are celebrated among large numbers of guests and without the rukhsati, the marriage is not considered to be complete in the Pakistani culture. IMM5490 states that they have cohabited for 7 days after the wedding which is also unusual given that the rukhsati was not celebrated. Proof of communication and financial support until date of submission of application is on file. For reasons above, evidence on file is not sufficient to satisfy me that relationship is genuine. RH: Please request up to date evidence of communication, financial support, send PF letter (use R2 — marriage, R4), add following paras: I noted that you submitted a very small number of photographs from your wedding and from the time you have spent with your sponsor after your wedding. This raises my concerns regarding the genuineness of your relationship with your sponsor. I noted that you have not submitted evidence that you indeed celebrated the Rukhsati after your marriage. Therefore, it appears that you have not followed the cultural norm in traditional Pakistan weddings of celebrating the Rukhsati after the wedding celebrations, and this is a serious concern regarding the bona fides of your relationship. You have indicated that your wedding reception was attended by a large number of guests. I am aware that an important part of a wedding in Pakistan tradition is that it is celebrated within the wider family and wider community. However, based on the wedding photos you have submitted, it appears your wedding was celebrated among a limited number of guests. This apparent deviation from the cultural norm raises concerns that your wedding may have taken place in order for you to
