Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hi Every one,

Quick question. As Inshallah am getting married in February. Is it okay If I apply for Sponsorship while staying there in Pakistan, though I will be coming back at the end of the March. Do I need to show my return ticket as well. Hope they not question why I am going back.

Thank you guys, for being great helping hands

Alhumdulillah! We received PPR this morning!!!! :D

I am a July 2015 applicant and was originally supposed to be having an interview but we were successfully able to waive the interview requirement by voluntarily sending additional proofs back in May. In July, we received additional document request for updated forms and police certificate. After the submission, in August they sent us a remedial request which was completed last Monday. The status changed to medical passed on the online CIC portal yesterday and this morning there was the passport request!

Hang in tight everyone! they are for sure doing their jobs! :)
CONGRATULATION. i am july applicant too now i am feeling little relax that now its my turn plz pray for me and congrats again

Do you know why it's been so long for them to clear out your application? I get the other user was in the interview queue, are you requested for an interview too? Have you requested notes/talked to MP?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hi,

accoding to timeline of Tauqeer1314, he applied recently in June and his apl forwarded to London in August. It means they work on the application after recieving. But later they make it so late.
July 2015 people are receiving PPR now while october 2015 have already recieved visas in June 2016 (8 Months). All this is un understandable. Now it has been 9 months, November applicants are still waiting PPRs. Govenment people (who r paid from our salaries/taxes)every where are so lazy.
we work hard, we pay taxes, we live alone wothout family. through our taxes immigration officials are paid but they are not really involved in doing it fast as it is our basic right to be reunioned. Liberals promised as Justin said somewhere that Immigrants r his priority because Canada is doing well in the world due to its immigrants. And now on the contrary it is no more his priority.
I met with one person who is from Brazil, he is on social aid. No decalared work. getting money from our pockets. doing work under the table. he got his wife,s visa just in 4 months. It is clear descrimination. no egality.
In this advance world, canada cant make a centralized policy that every one in canada who applies family reunification visa must be treated equally? Can we do something about it?
And we the tax payers are in miserable condition. no hope even after 8 months now.

Thank you :)

Well I was planning to visit my hubby anyways but until January we didn't hear anything from LVO while other July applicants were getting PPR's if I remember it right. We had no idea about the interview but surely had a feeling that at some point they might ask us for more documents if its taking that long. I visited him in March and ordered notes after I came back to figure out that there was an interview required. We submitted the tickets, boarding passes, hotel receipts. Receipts for shopping, lunches, dinners, movies - almost everything. Cards and gifts details. Watsapp chat log from April 2015 to April 2016. All of phone bills with detailed calls listing. Addressed some of the concerns mentioned by the visa officer on notes in a cover letter. For example: explaining our family issues and why my side of the family didn't attend the wedding.

In our case, notes helped us a lot and addressing their concerns/red flags with explanations helped us got through without an interview. :)

Your case is agood example of how my lawyer also said to me if you pay another visit say in 7-8 months time after your apply and send those visits support over to CIC it really boosts your application and reduces your chances of an interview since they have no doubt on the relationship. I am also thinking of paying a visit to PK in dec-Jan before they open June 2016 files ; :) :)
