Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hello All,
I have only submitted the English nikkah nama (attested) and not the Urdu nikkah nama with my application but reading here that this is a requirement. Can anyone please confirm? I have 2 kids and provided their birth certificates with both parents name clrearly written on it. Married for 9 years now so dont think proof of marriage will be an issue but just want to double check with you all if i should submit Urdu nikkah nama as i dont want the application to be delayed over something so small?

Appreciate your help

It may not. However, LVO misplaced my urdu Nikkanama along with my kid's birth certificate. Because of that, they sent me PFL (Procedural Fairness Letter) and now I'm stuck in the interview queue.

Its not something small as they they always required urdu nikkah nama copy. September files are not open yet so before they ask for urdu nikkah nama and processing time increases, i would suggest to voluntary post a copy of your urdu nikkah nama to LVO and explain why you are providing.

When did you submit your spousal application? Did you get an additional document request, when?

Yes since your application is in LVO, please post on the LVO email address. The following link will help you.

https://sites.google.com/site/canpakvisa/home/lvo-address

I submitted my app around the same date as you and then the only original documents required was the police certificate and medical information sheet.
So you must send in a notarised copy of the urdu nikkah nama.

In the checklist it was mentioned "provide copies unless specifically mentioned to provide original". Marriage certificate/Nikkah Nama original was not mandatory then.
