nikah only case - Pakistan help needed!!!!

[Jets13]

Think it is basically the same situation as a court marriage to start the immigration process and have the real ceremony later on. Unfortunately these things mostly backfire and IRCC refuses the application. People are just trying to minimize time apart after marriage. IRCC staff are very familiar with marriage traditions. The proof required after arranged marriages is incredibly important because there is usually very little time together. If you only have 5-6 pictures other than at the nikah that also is a warning sign.

I see, well definitely a warning sign then. If the husband and wife have not slept together then nothing is really "lost" per se when it comes to the wife. Perfect way to do a scam if you have other intentions and the relationship is not real. I can speak for Punjabi culture, it would be a much bigger deal and harder to do a scam if the marriage has been consummated.

Don’t believe this is a fake marriage. Just someone trying to file early while in the eyes of their family and community they are not fully married and able to live together. Not uncommon people try this all the time usually with a court marriage before the large religious ceremony.

oh sorry I was not clear, I am not saying it is a fake marriage in this case, just that if you were to do one it would be easier if it was not consummated. Hence its better to do all normal ceremonies as per the custom before submitting your file.

And what everyone is saying is that since you didn't do the full marriage rites and ceremonies, IRCC frequently believes that the marriage is fake. Even when you (and we) know its not.

IRCC refers to your culture: if you, in Pakistan, cannot share a bed or live together, you're not considered married in Pakistan. And you're not considered married for the purposes of immigration.

 

[k.h.p.]

No one here is calling you fake. But it's what IRCC will believe if you don't do the full marriage ceremony.

I got it now and I will explain it to my parents now
But kindly don’t call or fake because we’re honest people and also I belong from a pathan family
I will now talk to parents as they don’t know a lot
And thank you all

Sorry if it upset you but that is not the intent. I am not saying it is fake, I am saying you must prove not only that your relationship is legal, but that it is also genuine. You must prove both those things. If someone was to fake it they would not ideally want to do the last ceremony either. I think you would agree that it is better to give yourself the highest chances of success. If there are some ceremonies that you did not perform that are normal in other marriages that is just a point the officer can pick at and question. You are giving them an extra reason to question you and lowering your chances. I am not saying it will not be approved or there will be any problems. Everything could work our perfectly fine, but there are things that you could do that will improve your chances, mainly perform all the rituals as per your culture.

Additionally, if you consider the questioning here to be rude, be aware that IRCC will be significantly more invasive and rude if they interview you to determine if the relationship is genuine. In an interview, you can expect questions about sexual activity, personal habits, former boy/girlfriends, and more.

Don’t want to scare this poor girl. They will not be extremely personal questions about your intimate relationships. I believe people got in trouble for asking too questions that were too personal.

They do ask questions about sexual activity in interviews.

 

[k.h.p.]

Especially if it's foundational to determine if the applicant and sponsor consider themselves as married.

Thought I read about LGBTQ+ couples complaints lead to changes because the questions about their intimate life were extremely in depth like do you use sex toys or is whether you go to parties and have chem sex. The complaint was that questions were much more personal for non heterosexual couples so there were general recommendations that have been put in place. Asking how many times you have sex a week Isn’t something I wouldn’t consider too personal.

The sexual questions that I've seen asked on the forum are not that personal. How often, when and where was the first time, etc.

They will ask how, when, how often, etc if they believe that the marriage has not been consummated, especially in a culture where it is taboo or illegal to live or sleep together if full marriage rites have not been performed.

The ruling about asking about toys is a perverted visa officer rightfully getting into trouble for being an ass.

Hi,
I got engaged two years ago and last summer I got my nikah done. then the immigration office asked few questions and then they told me that they need few pics with my husband. We took pics, basically the reason we took them was to show that we’re married but we only got our nikah done. I have proof of messages and audio calls with my husband for the past two years
Is the rukhsati part important?
Will my husband get his visa easily, because we submitted his application and I expect him to come here by next year

can you please tell me did your case got approved or not?
