@posse - has your automated phone status been updated about DM ?
no but i do not think the automated system says decision made
however i am noticing a change in what they tell me from before the DM came. they now just say we are processing your background check instead of telling me all the things like if they need additional docs or eligibility etc, before it used to be a longer message now its shorter

i think u need to have nicop/cnic. the number stays the same so even if its expired i think they should not cause trouble. but i do not know 100%.

I’m not sure about what the Muslim Nikkah requires ( I’m Christian),
but for Nadra Nikkah Nama, my Nicop was expired as well , they didn’t object. So take your nicop with you .

Hello community,

I was hoping to find out how long it takes the files at the London visa office to be processed if you are sponsoring your wife from Pakistan.
I would like to hear about other peoples experience.

Kind regards,

Yes it means that they do not need more documents from you but it does not mean that the interview is waived because there was e member who got the same update in gckey and placed in the interview queue. Only immigration officer will decide if he feels like an interview is required or he is satisfied with you case.
