Check this before u submit the appeal. As far as im aware all imams register the nikka with the union council, or atleast they should, it seems some don't, as was the case with u...
Yeh I did ask at the time, I was informed that it was, obviously not the case.
It's sorted now, hopefully will submit appeal within a few days. Depending on how quick docs are sent from Pakistan to here.
I know a couple of others now who were refused for the same reason within the last few months and they are now re-united with their spouse after the appeal.
I think that this point should be included with Batley's info on page 217, in fact if possible Batley's info + plus info like this, should be made the opening post in this thread or as a seperate sticky thread.
