Landing_pr, flx2015 just 30 days more for you guys.. and 50-60 days for me :( but thanks God we are sooo near. i just remember the time when they were stuck at oct applicants. shukar alhamdoliliah they have moved on..
Inshallah, really hoping to make it through the next few weeks inshallah. I really hope nothing else pops up (unexpected vacations/holds from CIC, interviews, doc requests etc) :-X

Can't believe it's been 7 + months have gone by mashallah :'(

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Here’s my list of documents which I’ll keep handy in case there’s a request for AD (additional docs):

- Proof of continuous communication
- Pictures: Mayon (with guests), Mehndi (with guests), Wedding (with guests), Walima (with guests), Rukhsati (Quran over the head), Honeymoon (hopefully without guests lol), Outings, Selfies, Skyp’ing/Facetim’ing
- Re-meds: Make appointments for late July, early August
- Visa stamps for exit and entry into the country (Canada – Pakistan etc)
- Option C print outs
- Original Nikkah Nama/Translated copies
- Police Certificates
-
Can’t think of anything else for now. Feel free to add your own people.

Hey Landing, where are these visa stamps exactly?

I don't remember them stamping my Canadian passport when I landed in Lahore, nor did they stamp anything when I left. I use my NICOP for visa-free entry/exit to Pakistan.

All I sent in this case is the boarding pass/flight tickets receipts.

Ughh this is frustrating, with most people receiving AD requests, I am beginning to worry ???

Check in the middle pages, there must be stamps. Unless the immigration officer forgot :'(

That unlucky guy was me :(

I think the only reason the photos weren't accepted is that there was no complete address of the photographer on the back.

It was Photographer name and city name. No country, postal code, and phone number.

This time I put the whole address. It will be sent to LVO tomorrow.

don't think about it too much or you'll get worried sick like i did. if/when you get a request for additional docs, you can deal with it then.

Okay. The photos that I've sent have the complete street address including shop number, street, town, city and the phone number. It just doesn't have Pakistan written after Rawalpindi. Mine is like "Shop 1, Tulsa Road, Lalazar, RWP, phone number:5546699". Do you think this is sufficient?

I get stamps every time I land/depart Lahore. I also use Nicop but my passport also gets stamped.

Don't worry, this is precautionary. You sent what was required.

Contact your MP to see what's going on with your app if you are Nov or earlier applicant :)

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

AOA, i have a question plz, anyone!!
On first page of GCMS notes, they wrote:
Preferred Correspondence channel: 'other'

i provided my email address and its also written in the notes but why they wrote preferred correspondence channel : other?
i sent them an email for correction but never got reply back and neither it was corrected.

if someone can check their GCMS notes and let me know the answer please!

please mote: am October 2015 applicant and i never received any correspondence from LVO so far, so am worried that might be its due to this mistake that am not getting any email from them.

Thanks a lot

Hey, I just checked mine and it's the same thing...I don't think you should be worried. Our timeline is the same and I, too, have not heard anything thus far.
