My wife got her re-medical request today from New Dehli. Can someone please update the spreadsheet.

Also a few questions for everyone:
- She is currently in the US, can we get the remedical done from here so does it need to be from Pakistan.
- How long does it take for Decision made, after medicals are submitted.

My timeline is on the left (with the profile info) for those who are wondering.
You can have medical in any country. In my case we had medical done in Saudi Arabia but PA is in Pakistan.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Just received our ATIP notes need some feedback members...
Additional docs requested in June 2015 are all acceptable with only one issue which was communicated to us on Oct 9, 2015 we sent our response within a week to address that concern (that will hopefully be accepted) however the notes are not updated as to what they received in return of the letter sent on Oct 9.
Background checks however haven't started criminality and security hasn't started :(
How long do u think it should take for DM now? I am sept 2014 applicant
Also till what date are these noted updated? As in the date we request them or the date we receive?

Notes are generated the next business day you submit your request although sent to you after a month. What does latest notes say at the very bottom.? Does it say somewhere that your file is sent for review to some other officer.? As I suspect a interview in your case. Did they approved your marriage to be genuine in the notes.?

You have to submit Upfront medical otherwise it will cause a delay in the case...

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Why has LVO slowed down so much in these last 2 weeks? Any theories? I thought it it might pick up again this week but doesn't seem to be the case. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with the elections being over.

I will be travelling to Lahore from Islambad in 2 weeks.
I am new to Lahore.
I was wondering what are transit companies/options from ISB to LHR (comfortable travel)
We will also be shopping for my wife and looking for nice clothes at good value. (What you recommend?)
Depends on what kind of clothes your wife is looking for. If she is more into designers thn I would suggest Gulberg Galleria and Mall of Lahore two of my personal favorite places to shop at when I visit Pakistan Lahore. And besides these there is of course all time famous Liberty and Fortress but I personally find these 2 places very hard to shop at. Too many random shops hence too much hassle to find something good in quality and price.
Good luck!
