SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

[InfoSeeker12]

Hi everyone. Wanted to double check about Signatures. There are few forms, which do NOT LET you to type your name inside the signature box. And there is usually (not always) an icon beside these boxes, showing Hand with a pen - perhaps saying sign with your hand??

To make matters more confusing - the application portal clearly says that this form should be DIGITALLY SIGNED - DO NOT PRINT/SCAN.
as in the case of : IMM5532
but not for:
-IMM5536
-IMM5546 (details of military service) - signature box is there, but can't type name through computer.

Is there an Adobe setting that needs to be activate to do that?

Hello:

We have been through the same problem. You should PRINT and DIGITALLY SIGN the IMM5532 in PDF Editor. As it is a problem with the form itself.

You got your AOR on 17, SA-18 and biometrics-19. medical usually is around that. any day it could be popping up in your email.

However, are you in Pakistan? I know in Islamabad - IMO does accept Advance medical appointment, even with the medical request letter from CIC. All you need is your UCI number, which im sure you'd have got from your AOR, Biometrics request etc. Why not to go ahead and get done with your medical. When you recieve the request, just respond right away with uploading the medical report.

Previously, applicants did not used to do medical check up in advance, as it would take CIC months, sometimes more than a year to get back with just AOR and Medical request. So they'd have to do it again. Hence ppl used to wait for medical request letter.

Nowadays, when you know that in general the timelines is 2-2.5 months, why not to go ahead and get it done in advance. So as soon CIC asks for that, you can upload the report in the portal. OR if CIC gets it directly from the clinic, thats great too. One less thing to worry about.

Yes, you need to make it max 10 pages. It was mentioned in one of the document which gives description to what you should provide as Supporting Documents and how it should be. It's one of the 2 Checklists docs

A very good point!

I would suggest every Pakistani Spousal PR applicant to get their MEDICAL appointment beforehand around 4-5 months from the date of Application. This is considering that you have already received AOR, BIOMETRICS and SA done.

If I knew this in advance, then would have done it so.
