Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

After LVO requested additional documents, like Urdu Nikah Nama, how long does it take them to send PPR2. And also my Medical and police report have expired, should I wait for them to request new one or I can send them these proactively?
Thank you.

You will need to wait until you get a re-med request.
Do not send these docs until requested.
Check the spreadsheet for current trends.

When did you receive the medical request? I think it is better that you wait. Getting a visit visa is very hard when your application is underway for permanent residency.

BG check takes more time in the entire case processing, and it too much depends upon your travle history. Many local depts are involved in it, so it will take bit longer if you have traveled.

AFAIK In PPR1 they ask for a copy of your passport and want you to send it to LVO, in PPR2 they ask you to send your original passport to CHC Islamabad for visa.
Salamz Dear All,

Can anyone tell me about how much time they take after PPR1..? As I got PPR1 on Dec 16, 2014 and have sent that on Dec 17 but still there is no correspondence. I'm worried if there is any problem regarding my process..

Question for senior members:

When do you receive the permanent residence card? At the airport?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

CIC Delhi has asked my wife to get the re-assessment of medical validity.

Seems like now IOM give appointment by emails not over the phone.

Has anyone received similar requests?

Thanks
