Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hello,

I have to make a quick inquiry and if anyone could please guide me through it would be really appreciated. My husband's Permanent Resident's status on ECAS is already showing Decision Made since a month. Now we have been contacted to submit few additional documents, RPRF and photograph for PR. We already submitted all of that and recently we'be been contacted again to re submit the photographs as there's an error with the specification which is required, they have attached the correct specification guideline. The first time when my husband took photos were according to the correct specification well as far as we know because he did take the guideline with him to the photographer. May be the photographer must have made an error, but because of that there's further delay. Could anyone please let me know a good place to get the photos done in Islamabad or Peshawar, where they have gone themselves or know someone to get the photos done for the PR from that place? Also, how far are we with the application process to get the PPR? What would be the next step after we submit the photographs again?
Thanks!

They recently changed the photo specifications. If you're in Islamabad, go to Photo Right in F-10 Markaz, take the photo specs page with you. Previously the size of the photos was 1' 3/4 x 1' 3/8 (45mm by 35mm) so almost squarish with a white background. Now the size has changed to 2" 3/4 x 2" (70 mm by 50 mm), so a little bigger. I've heard that the Gerry's office where you submit your passport has a photographer too, but I don't know for sure, better get them done beforehand!

You're almost done, as soon as they have the photos you will get your Visa Stamped on the passport and ready to fly to Canada :)

Thank you so much for clarifying and letting me know about the place. Appreciated your help. Now would they ask for the passport to Stamp the visa after we send out the photos?, and the medical's validity for my husband is until the end of June so do you think they wouldn't ask for a re medical since there's enough time remaining before it gets expire?

Not sure what the sequence of their requests will be. They should have at this stage asked directly for passport. But assuming that you had not paid the RPRF and did so now, PPR should be comig your way soon inshallah. For now, just send the photos and wait for their next request.

Thank you Bubbles, for letting us know about this update. I just sent my wife's sponsorship app last week and it seems like I sent the photos according to old specification. I will send them new pics as soon as I get my file number and hopefully will avoid any delay. Thanks again!

Yes it is very normal. your wife's status will not change so soon. probably in another 2 3 months. can be earlier depends on the visa officer handling it.
and secondly why do you want to the change the address? all correspondence is through email only. and when they will return the original documents back, most probably they will send them to you only.

Hey I submitted the application on 12th July 2015 and got the sponsorship approval on the 14th of August 2015 then the file got transferred to London on the the 22nd September 2015. Later now at the beginning of November 2015 they asked for additional documents and I sent them right away in next two weeks. On the 2nd of December the ECAS started showing up Decision Made as the status for Permanent Resident and they asked to submit the photos for PR and pay the outstanding RPRF. So I submitted everything in the 1st week of Jan 2016 and they got back to me on the 11th of Jan 2016 that I need to re submit the photographs with the correct specification, which I'll send out in coming week Inshallah

Because my family is changing house so i have to change address thats why i want t change it to mine canadas address
So in any case they send documents to sponsor?
