Also... i am going to send these people a lot more proof. Its never "too much :p " ..

I need an opinion!
When i got married i posted mine and my husbands Nikah pictures on facebook. If i take a screenshot of that and all the comments of people saying congratulations.... do you think that would be considered "proof"? or would they not care? Just curious! ::)

Yes I did that. Almost screenshot of every page where we both had commented/picture/shares/liked ... really it will be beneficial for you to submit these. Don't forget Skype, Viber/Whatsapp, personal emails, call logs, traditional paper pen chitti ;D among other stuff.

Pakistan seems to have the longest delays. I am still a Pakistani National(PK Passport), permanently residing in USA and my wife is a Canadian citizen permanently residing in USA. The turnaround time for our application was less than 180 days from application filed to visa issued. Its sad that people with spouses resident in Canada are getting delayed for years. Why are Pakistanis from USA treated better than those from Pakistan?

Order notes first. If they are satisfied with your relationship nd consider it genuine then dont send more proof. Atleast not any photos. My case screwed up cuz of that. They got confused. Thats my experience, rest is up to you.
U r v right! That's y I'm not sending any additional until n unless they ask me to do so

No, they didn't ask my wife, why she is taking all her jewelry.(But you need to get an evaluation of proof of the jewels).

At landing, there is no hassel, just have to meet the immigration officer and he/she will take your copr and make you sign a few papers. They didn't ask my wife nothing.

Good luck.

Sample of PPR1 Request From London Visa Office

Dear Applicant : Your application has reached the final stage of processing. Since Pakistani law does not permit the mailing of Pakistani passports from Pakistan to other countries, we will not ask you to submit your passport to our office in London. The issuance of your permanent resident visa will be a two-step process. Step 1: Follow the instructions in this letter to submit the requested items to our office in London. Please carefully read the enclosed/attached ‘Step 2' instructions for submitting your passports in precisely 2 weeks. Step 2: Do not submit your passport to our Islamabad office until 2 weeks after you submit your documents to London. The Islamabad office cannot issue your visa before we instruct them to do so; (if you submit your passport early, it will be returned to you without a visa). The Islamabad office can only mail passports to addresses in Pakistan. If you will want your passports returned to an address outside of Pakistan, then this letter does not apply to you. Inform us immediately so that we can send you different instructions. Step 1: Submit the documents listed below to our office in London. (These instructions do not apply to accompanying family members who are entitled to Canadian citizenship, because they will have to travel on their Canadian passports.)
1. Clear photocopies of your passport and the passports of each accompanying family member. The passports must meet the Passport Specifications as detailed below because these are the passports you will use to travel to Canada.
2. The Updated Information Chart below, fully completed for you and each accompanying family member.
Submit these two items within 7 days of the date of this correspondence. All items for you and your accompanying family members must be submitted together in one package.
You may scan and send these items by email to LDNIMMIGRATION @ INTERNATIONAL.GC.CA OR by mail OR by courier to: VPU Processing (LDN) Immigration Section
Canadian High Commission 38 Grosvenor Street London, W1K 4AA United Kingdom Sincerely, Immigration Section

Regards,
omer Qureshi
