My pleasure

Very minor check, download the latest forms from CIC website and check if you have the latest versions. (If there are minor changes, don't worry)
Bear in mind that CIC continuously updates the forms with minor changes.

If a form was changed in October and you have used that form and signed with a date of September, This may be taken negatively.

If you signed a document in March, leave that with March. But signing a document in November or December with back dates is not a good thing.

The date on a document should be the one when you actually signed the document.
That sounds reasonable - I'll double check tonight as i know I used few updated forms! :)

I applied to sponsor my Pakistani husband in March 2014. His file was updated to 'Decision made' a few weeks ago and we received a letter requesting us to send his passport to Islamabad along with two photographs.

We are confused about the fact that 1-there was no PPR1 asking us to send a copy of his passport to the London visa office and 2-we were never requested to do a remed even though the first one expired months ago???

Do you guys think the LVO forgot about us? How do I contact them?
Congrats and thank Allah and send your passport via Gerry's right away, you are lucky not to go through the agony of old system.... no body forgot anything, just follow instruction without wasting any time... Good Luck

A piece of advice, Please take your application extremely seriously, the dates are very important and they can pick on anything, use current forms, ensure the dates are current and if there is a gap as someone suggested that its ok, The gap has to be reasonable not 9 months as you said above something about March date.

Please note Pakistan Police report is only valid for 6 months, medical for 1 year so please take extreme care. and file everything current to have speedy processing. Good Luck

You should send them voluntarily. Them asking for additional proofs will cause delay.

My personal experience is, sending additional info could cause delay because when you send more info they have to review it and this may slow down the process also if they find something and decide to verify that, God help you then months of delay with interview Que as your fate. So just stay calm and be patient, let them do their job and "Don't Jump the Gun" as they say.

Good Luck

My relation was seen as genuine even though there was a age gap between my husband and I.
I took about 30-40 main pictures of our wedding and at the back few things:
1. Date of picture
2. Function (wedding, mendhi, casual meeting)
3. who is in it (husbands sister, his mom etc)
4. What they are doing (eating ceremony -- this is just extra step incase it was not clear in picture)
With this you may want to add any communication you both had (facebook conv, skype, calling )
Or any previous pictures of your relation (I added photos of us meeting 2 years ago with email conversations we had).
Anything that could make your relation seem stronger.

Good luck :)

Hi, it says your re-med is done 07/07/2015 . How come you have not gotten visa yet?
My husband is getting re-med soon so I was wondering how long it will take after this and what steps wil happen. I hear its about 1 month process afterwards.

Also this is from my ATIP notes on our relation you may be able to see what they assess:



Canadian citizen PR since: NIA Prev Marriage?: No Prev Spousal Sponsorship?: No Residency concerns: Prev Marriage: No Prev application: No Prev Imm History: No Date PA met
Related: -- Arranged Marriage: no Date of Engagement: -- Date of Marriage: --

Nikah Performed: yes Nikah Nama provided: yes Rukhsati Performed: Yes How many in attendance: 200

Honeymoon attended: No Photos of Nikah: Yes Photos of other outings: Yes Appears cultural norms followed:

Yes Length of time SPO stayed in Pakistan: -- weeks Satisfied that relationship is genuine: Yes Based on: sponsor and PA marriage was proposed by family as per traditions. A lengthy courtship took place since the sponsor was -- years old and wedding was finalized four years later. Cultural norms seem to have been followed. Nikah was well attended. Photos show that PA and Sponsor are comfortable with each

other. Photos included for other outings and have same comfort feeling. Nothing looks posed. Traditional dress and henna shown in photos as well as the crowd in attendance. Proof of ongoing communication included and satisfactory. Based on these factors I am satisfied that the sponsor and PA are in a genuine relationship. Education years and level updated: yes

You have to make an appoitment with the IOM. they will not entertain you if you just show up!

You already have decision made on your application since last month, and they're asking for re medical now? LVO sure is acting strange! :p
