Passport Application

Post by Rehan Arain » Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:32 pm

Hi everybody,
I need the help here, please could anybody advise.

I got married in Dec 2011 and now my wife is to get her first passport, she went to passport office today in Lahore.

Now the question is, she has not changed her I.D Card name to my name as we wanted to keep that as it is. (Because it is simple, and secondly to be consistent with all her educational documents & nikah nama)

Now on passport application they asked Married or Unmarried, once she told them that she is married, they said you need to change I.D Card to husband’s name and bring husband’s passport copy.

As marital status is not shown on the passport......Is that ok... if she could mention unmarried and that’s how she can keep her I.D card name that also be shown on the passport.

Would it cause any problem with the embassy , when she is applying for visa, Would embassy check with NADRA?
Please advise.

This happened with my wife. She kept her own surname but we had to get a new ID card made which instead of Fathers name said Husbands name. Then we got the passport made which says Husbands name on as well.

You might as well get both of these done as it would make everything easier and because both show the husbands name, it will make the case more solid.

After 4 emails enquiring about the staus of our appeal review, we finally got a reply today. The application is still in a queue to be processed and unfortunately they are unable to comment on the time frame. The deadline given to the ECO is the end of this week so I sincerely hope they pull their socks up and get on with it!!

I am now on lyca and their call history is soo much better to print off then vectone, I am still waiting to hear the results of my hubby English test, it should be here any day now insha'Allah, he said to me to check on the SLS College Jhelum website the results will be on there and so far his name isnt there :cry:

Sis all they said was it can take up to 28 days. But I guess due to the Christmas holidays they were closed for some days thus it is taking longer... I wonder how many days they were actually closed for?????:roll:

Our representative will contact them Insha'Allah, make dua please. This wait is actually worser than anything! :( Makes me sad!

Allah is most merciful! :)
