Hey, I dont understand what you are trying to ask.
But if you are saying, that if I mentioned any concerns in my cover letter and explained the reasons behind anything that was not usual, then yes I did.
For example; My Nikkah/Rukhsati happened in Lahore, while I am from Karachi (just to make it easier for all of us). I explained why we decided to have our Nikkah in Lahore and Reception in Karachi because usually its the other way around.
Just, things like that.
you will have to mention details in your coverletter regarding how nikkah and rukhsati happened .

Just to clear the confusion (hopefully)

Even if you have a chip based Smart CNIC, you will have to get a translation done for it since the address is in Urdu at the back. This is a recent occurrance, i know some of you who applied earlier in 2017 were not asked for translation. I applied in Oct 2017 and I was asked to provide translation because only the back of my wifes Chip-based Smart CNIC was in Urdu (the address). I have seen posts about CPC-M asking for translation also in the past few months. So TL; DR, get a translation done of your Smart CNIC if the back is in Urdu. It costs like 200 rupees.

In regards to English Nikkahnama. Recent occurrence show that they are asking for Urdu Nikkahnama even though there was only one and the Original one was in English (which is stupid) , there was never an Urdu Nikkahnama to sign. I only have an English nikkahnama also which I have submitted, we shall see if they ask for an Urdu one later on.

Moral of the story is, do whatever you can from your end and wait to see what more they need. you are on this forum asking questions which is good, we are not the actual officers who work on your file, we are speaking from personal experience and not everyones experience is 100% same.

Yes you will need to get it translated atleast thats what i did. You can go to court or katchehri near u there will be hundreds of certified translators in that area but make sure you get his affidavit and notarize translation
I just want to clarify, so the person who translates the CNIC must provide his affidavit stating that he has translated the doc etc and then have that affidavit sworn I presume before a notary? Is that what you mean? My husband just got it translated and then there is some sort of stamp on both the copy of the CNIC and the translated document.

I have a 5 MB PDF format file that i have email to LVO but they got back to me stating that file size is too big so they can't upload it and wants me resize to only 2 MB. I have used a PDF compressor but only able to reduce the size upto 3MB and put a Water Mark (stamp of their site o each and every page).
i used this http://pdfcompressor.com/

does any one know any good PDF Compressor which can help to reduce this file upto 2MB so i can email it back to LVO
thanks everyone

yes translator needs to provide affidavit undertaking his competency in translation and that this is true translation of original.

try creating pdf with reduced resolution images if there are any in the file. mostly its because of the images file size go that high. Open images in paint and resize them accordingly to reduce the size.

goodluck
