Thank you....my wife is here in Pakistan to visit me...do we need to submit our pictures,communication,boarding pass etc. Voluntarily or no need as they do not need more documents from us
I think you should wait more a bit probably you will hear something good soon if everything is good in your case. So wait for a week or two and then you can think about it.

Yes make some nice photos etc as well as going out enjoying, make a nice package and send it to them.
Don't wait until they ask, send it so that it can further show your growing relationship

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,
11-12 months, sometimes longer

yup i sent in voluntary docs 3 times.

1st time was when my wife updated her last name and updated her CNIC to reflect me as the husband and updated her passport with the new name.
2nd time i sent voluntarily sent gift receipts and chat logs, along with copy of ticket to show my intention to visit
3rd time i sent voluntary docs when i got back from Pak with more chat logs, boarding passes, passport exit entry stamps, and new pictures of us together in Pak at different occasions.
Posse....can you guide me how you submit voluntary pic,communication,bills to LVO. What size of documents they required how i can resize pic and how many pics i need to submit them..i have a lot of pics....her visit was for 2 week..

Sorry this may be off topic but i wanted to know if nicop is mandatory to perform the nikkah? to fill in the forms do we need cnic/nicop? my nicop has expired n m leaving canada soon n thinking to apply for nicop after i get married since i will have to change my martial status after marriage, but some one told me that u must have nicop n it cant be expired, can i not use m passport as an id?
i think an expired nicop can be used. My husband did use that too but we got it renewed right after

should the documents, pictures, supporting letters, etc be submitted in nicely bound sets or should we just use paper clips to secure each set?

and do they require us to put our fb status and dp open to public or can it be just friends only? we just have to send them likes and comments screenshot images anyhow right?

You can send as many pictures as you like but just dont flood them. i think i sent about 20 pics and maybe 15-20 screenshots of our whatsapp chat.

first thing i did was select the ones i wanted and then resized the pictures in paint by 40-50% and saved them as jpeg or jpg, that reduced the size of each picture from like 3mb down to less than 1mb.

then i added them to a word document and labeled each pic to tell them what occasion, what date, where we were, and whos in the picture (by name and relation).

i put about 6 whatsapp chat screenshots on one page by reducing the size with-in the word document.

then i saved it as a PDF, you can do that by going File > Save As > Select your location > Save as Type: PDF > Optimize for: Minumum Size > Save.
