FRC ( family registration certificate) has two certificate types.
FRC by birth and by marriage.

One by birth ( B form .ie with siblings pics& details and parents name)

One by Marriage ( Shows husband and wife pic+relationship status+both side parents name) for this you first need to update your marital status with nadra by taking your original nikkah to them. then apply for FRC by martiage

Its not specified document which must be sent. Rather its an additional government issued authentic document which might make them skip nikkah verification from council itself.

and gerrys staff do ask for it. I duno why

Thanks for all the info. When we went to the Gerry office they did not ask for these documents so it is very confusing. Could it be that my wife attached a copy off her Identity Card from Nadra which contains my name?

Too late to do anything now and by the looks off it, it seem all the people who submitted the applications in May are now being called Allhamdolillah.

All we can do is make dua and hope for the best.

If you have provided the council registered nikkah nama with attested English translation copy so there is no need of any NADRA certificate.

Don't worry Copy of Identity card is fair enough,no need of anything else.

for calls/messages... did anyone use Vectone Mobile, Lebara Or Lyca Mobile in the UK?...

I myself have 2 Sims, one for my main uk line and one for international calling only which is Vectone Mobile and i gotta say that they are the BEST in terms of reliability! sure they might be a little expensive but hey at the end of the day you're paying a premium for premium services ;)... they have online call and txt history available 24/7 and it can be downloaded anytime and printed off with proper letter heading unlike using skype or any other service that i know of

80 PAGES!!!! hahahaha thats alot wow... i only sent a few pages lol because during july 2010 till dec 2012 i had a few different sims and then finally decided to stick with vectone in may 2012 but at that time i didnt really think about the call history and i always thought i would be able to get it anytime later on but then i found out the hard way lol i realised that i can only get the last 6 months xD so i had to do it every 6 months from dec 2012 and that came out to roughly 11 pages.. i really hope they dont pick on that because of my lack of seriousness before 2013
