Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

it,s clear about your interview group no but every one getting that same group but what is the interview event id number and the event is created yet on your gcms note or not mention yet.
what is the interview event identity number on your notes. that is more pointed then your group number. i feel.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Aoa everyone.

I am a PR living in Canada and will be going to Pakistan in two months to get married, and will then apply for spouse sponsorship (wife). I was initially of the view that Nikkah is enough for the spouse sponsorship but went through some posts in this thread and it seems they want Rukhsati as well and that too with concrete proof.
Is there a way i can just do Nikkah in a hall, invite all my friends and family members, take lots of pictures, will this be enough?
Whats the point of doing rukhsati when ill return to Canada and she will return to her home.
Is there a way to avoid rukhsati/valima at this stage? because i plan to do rukhsati/valima fucntions when my spouse gets her PR visa.

Need guidance please. Thank you.

Nearly anyone who you speak to on this forum on Pakistani cases will tell you "DO RUKHSATI" please. If you look at the new requirments they have made "Rukhsati Ceremony" very important. If you want to save yourself from a lot of questions and delay in immmigration do Ruksati. You don't have to do Walima but Rukhsati is very important. Nikkah only cases are almost always heavily scrutinized. Your lucky to come here and ask for advice before applying. So my recommendation is highly to do Rukhsati for smooth/quick processing of your wife application. :)

by the way did VO mention any Concerns or raised any points in his detailed notes at the end of GCMS notes?

usually these notes are on the last page of GCMS (like a whole page filled with his comments)

thanks please read notes in detail so that you will get Visa officer concerns and points on which Visa officer needs clarification from you in interview.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

i think they are asking for interview because it is my second marriage.
and we did engagement on the same day as wedding day. which is also mention in the notes.
There is one more note on ADM/CRIMINALITY
TEXT: No apparent criminal concerns C decision entered Clear Pakistan PC on file

How is it possible that all officers have gone to holidays together. I have a feeling its something to do with the pilot project. :/

Members: if anyone of you hear from LVO please let us know here. kuch tasali ho kisi ki file par kaam shuru hua.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Almost every time only the applicant is called for the interview. However, the sponsor is asked to be available on the phone. So that if needed, the interviewer may call.
If a sponsor accompanies the spouse while they are at the embassy for the interview, the visa officer may call the sponsor for the interview as well.
Everything will be written clearly in the interview email.
