6 7 months wait omg :( huh boring game
what about medical request ?

Medical if you did not do it upfront. When you get sponsor approval and they forward your file to London. It states in that letter, if you haven't done medical please do so.
If you did medical upfront and if your case is smooth (no problems), Then I don't think you need a remedical. I did not do re-medical

what format do they want ?? what can i do from My Yahoo Account ?

It is always better to send them through tracked physical mail (fedEX, DHL, TCS) . I also expected the same response when you last time said that you are sending it in 2 emails.
 
Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Does anybody know how long does it take to receive the PR card??
Also has anybody else travelled to any other place through France while being the owner of Pakistani passport and not having a PR card?
Read it somewhere that they require an airport transit visa although I will not be even leaving the airport premises..
Any help will be appreciated!

- If you are holding a valid Permanent Resident Card of Canada, or a valid Green Card of the USA AND you are not going out of the international zone of the airport AND you are holding confirmed airplane tickets (NO « stand-by ») AND your next destination after France is not a Schengen country, then, no matter what your nationality is, you do not need a Type A visa. You can transit without a visa.
- If you are not holding valid Permanent Resident Card of Canada, or a valid Green Card of the USA AND you are travelling with a passport from one of the following countries, you have to apply for a Type A visa.
The Type A visa or Airport Transit Visa is a visa that allows you only to transit through the international area of an airport, without any possibility to enter the Schengen Space


COPR is I think equivalent to PR card. So you can travel without visa from France. But confirm from somewhere else also. Source for above:

My parents once used Amsterdam to goto Karachi from Edmonton, and they didn't had any problem.
 
Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Yes Amsterdam and France both of them have this rule..
Well InshAllah it will be all okay then!
Thanks for your prompt response =)
 
Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Salaam,

My partner landed on Saturday November 28, 2015!

Thanks to everyone for your support and advice over the last year +!

Just some advice to others coming. Make sure you have enough time to get through Canada customs if you have a connecting flight. We had a 3 hour layover and just made our connecting flight out of Toronto to Calgary. Customs was very slow but it went smoothly.

Many thanks for your response, It is very difficult to do the rukhsati at the moment, what if the rukhsati takes place after lets say 6,7 months? If i apply now after nikah and update them about rukhsati after 6,7 months, how much time do you think it will take to complete the process

No one can tell you how long it will take we have people here waiting since 2013, I myself waiting since April 1, 2014. if you make your case complicated yourself it is bound to take longer but no one can predict. Good Luck

WRONG.

The COPR is NOT considered a PR Card.
You will need the transit visa on the return journey, because the Canadian IMM Visa (sticker in passport) is only single entry and will be used up when you enter Canada. On Pakistani passport either you obtain a transit visa, or change your plan for the return journey.
Only place where you don't need it is via Middle East (Doha, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Istanbul, etc).
For Europe you will require airport transit visa. And for USA also you will require valid US Visa.

If you try to travel to France without valid visa or PR Card, you will be denied check-in/boarding (at the airport in Canada) and waste your ticket/money.
