Spouse sponsorship Abu Dhabi office
- Thread starter Dominica
- Start date
I understand the frustration - doesn't really make sense at all. Also it seems that when they ask for ADR they cannot predict how long it will take, and I think there are different groups involved. One group asks for ADR, another group before they issue PPR checks for medical validity and requests that later.tamyboy said:
My wife and I are in a situation where if they ask for re-medical, it is going to be difficult for my wife. Lets see inshaAllah.
To be honest with you I just followed the instructions exactly in the PPR email. There were few options to submit the PP by courier or in person. We chose in person and the lady at the counter told my wife it could take up to 10 business days and may be more in some cases. But for us it was delivered in 10 business days.Impresso said:
I personally think it all depends on the officer who is handling the case/file, some are very active in processing the file while others just like to sit on file for months.
i was thinking the same thing , to redo medical and send it to them before they ask but in the sametime im hoping they will extend it ,our medical just expired ! last notes they didnt mention any request for re med. and that make me more confused !Impresso said:
r u thinking to order the notes again ?
Our Medicals already expired in Sep 2014 - we saw in the notes it says Med-Ext but dont really know what it means. Also we are expecting another baby, so wife wont be able to go through a medical if required. Dont know if that will delay the process. In terms of sending medicals again, I know a few member have done it to be safe.tamyboy said:
Yes I will be ordering notes again just to see what is going on as there is no other way of knowing - Honestly I was a little excited to see that our case status changed to " In Process " and seeing other members were getting PPR with a few months after getting " In Process " - 5 Months since and still no news. Insha'Allah hope all this waiting will end soon.Tulip flower said:
Hi everyone! 
I just want to ask if there is an applicant here who has received their application in CIC last June 2014?
I am sponsoring my husband and the CIC received our application last June 23, 2014. They sent my a letter saying that I am eligible to sponsor my husband last August 25, 2014. They also forwarded the application of my husband to Abu Dhabi visa office last August 23, 2014 and received the upfront medical that same date. There's still no update in our ECAS after that.
We are now worrying about his medical that is going to expire this April 8, 2014. We sent an email in the visa office to follow up and tell them about the expiration of his medical but they didn't reply on it.
Is there any chances that they might ask for retaking medical or not? Please help me get some information regarding our situation. Thanks in advance.

I felt the same thing when I saw our status change to "in process", just got excited that any day they could request passport. I hope it's close now InshaAllah.Impresso said:
Hello beautiful people,
Great job on sharing your experiences and helping each other out. I am hoping to get help on couple questions:
Me and my spouse are Pakistani citizens and we got married in Pakistan. I am a Canadian PR and she is a resident of Dubai.
1. Do I need to send original nikkah nama and English translation or is a notarized copy of the Nadra Marriage Registration Certificate (which is an official registration certificate/document from the govt of Pakistan and made after submitting the Nikkah Nama) attested by ministry of foreign affairs in Pakistan good enough? When I read the U.A.E country specific guide, I know it says copy for marriage certificate but I am confused and concerned based on some blogs folks have sent all 3 but my question is why? the latter comes from the former and is in English so why bulk up the application for no apparent reason? If Nadra Marriage certificate is good enough then should it also be attested from somewhere in Dubai? If yes then from where and why?
2. Couple of the passport entry exit stamps for the applicant (my spouse) don't make sense and are from long ago, definitely seems like a mistake on the stamp's date itself, should I be worried about this? should I include it in the travel/personal history as is and explain on separate sheet that she is unable to remember and can't figure from the stamps in passport? She has a loottt of entry exit stamps and they are all for the same entry/exit countries
3. Should the passport copies be notarized? I read somewhere it's not required for passport copies but for all other documents (other than those required in original)
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks : )

Hi,shaikhy said:
Our case is same as yours. Here's my experience:
1. We submitted all three, original Nikhat Nama, English translation notarized, and marriage certificate. We applied thru agent and he advised it is necessary.
2. This is not to worry about. If they need any further details they will ask for it later or may even want to see the original passport.
3. We didn't send notarized copies of passport and they neither asked for any further docs. Our decison is made by still waiting for the correspondence on it.
Good luck with your application.
