Travel during AP

[FZSA 23]

Hello Friends !

I heard that 99% people get AP after interview in Islamabad Embassy for 2 to 12 months

My question is that can we ask to get back passport during AP period just after interview ???

NOTE: I have Danish residency and i want to move to Denmark after interview ..

IS IT POSSIBLE ?

Yes it is.. You can request embassy to mail your passport to you. They will request your passport back when they are ready to issue the visa.

or if i move to Denmark before interview ?

will they conduct my interview there ???

Let me inform you that i have case number starting with ISL ( Islamabad )

Does it means interview will only conduct in Islamabad Embassy or they will changed it according to my current country and embassy ( Denmark ) ???

If you're going to be living in Denmark I would try to interview there if possible. I have heard the AP process can really drag out if you leave the country after the interview. I believe you would need to submit the transfer request with Denmark and then if they agree to take the case they will request everything from Islamabad. We just got our case transferred from UK to Islamabad. It look a few months without knowing if it was going to go through, but eventually did. We never heard anything from either party until one day CEAC finally updated our case status online to the same case number we had always had, but now with ISL at the end.

***I'm not sure if the Pakistani is male or female. If you're a woman then you may just want to interview in Pakistan and stay there until you are approved since AP doesn't usually take that long for women. If you are male I would at least consider what I wrote above.

The online visa application form is the DS-260, not DS-230.

I am still pretty new to this process so I'm hoping someone with more experience will also write you. But from my understanding it is not really good to travel after you have interviewed as it could prolong your AP. If your residence is in Denmark that is really where you should interview. If you interview in Pakistan then go to Denmark and your AP goes longer than a year you will need to re-do your medical in Pakistan. I am guessing you will also need to get a new police report from Denmark as you had traveled there after AP starts.
