Hi all, I've been reading this forum since long time and now i'm in process of filling forms. I'm Pakistani and my wife is Canadian citizen living with me in Saudi Arabia.

I'll be grateful if somebody answer to my these questions:

1. Which country specific guide should i use? Pakistan or Middle East?
2. Does any Pakistani national living in middle east have submitted all their "Original" documents?
3. From where can i get document copies notarized?

Hi, I am Lebanese and have been living in the UAE for 22 years and I followed the Lebanese and UAE guides. It is a bit confusing because they mention country of residence but it is better to follow both country of citizenship and residency.
Good Luck

Thanks sanabanana. I've been in Saudi Arabia since 4 years now. The issue in using both (Pakistan & Saudi Arabia) guides is that in Pakistan they've requested to submit everything original, while in Saudi Arabia's they required only copies of most of the docs.
Also, what about notarization of copies? My documents are of Pakistan, so can i get their copies notarized in Saudi Arabia?

I was in UAE in same visa , so I have to write every exit and entry like I visited Pakistan 13 times in year on same visa. So I need to write 13 times even I visit Pakistan for 2 days ? Or visa issued and expiry exit day .

I notarized my documents from Lebanon, because they were issued there. I only submitted original Police Certificate from UAE. YOu need to check if KSA notarizes documents that were not issued in KSA.

if you apply from Saudi Arabia holding Pakistani passport then your fille will be transfered to London Visa Office. it should b done within a year as long as u submit all the documents.
dont submit original documents as it is really pain to get them back. send in color copy of marriage certificate and stuff. if they require they will ask u. i sent all the copies and they didnt ask me for original.
when i sent the photocopes i didnt get them notarised. i just mentioned in everything that if they require originals it can be provided.

That's really not good . Have they added the additional documents recieved in your notes ? What I recommend is to talk to your MP. Why is there no progress in Abu Dhabi office lately ?

No
I sent the additional documents on November and it's not included in the notes of the file
The last activity on the file was when they sent the request for additional documents
