Calling everyone going thru Islamabad Embassy, version 2.0

[fareash 0]

hey guys sallam How is everyone doing.

I havent been on VJ for a long time before i was on 24/7 just reading thorugh ppl' questions and answer etc. And i was staring to feel sad after reading thtough people stories, f so I stopped for a while but I hope inshallah everyone's visa's are granted as same for my husband too.

Today I finally mailed my husband the last packet of documents now its just time to pray to Allah and hope for everything to go well., Inshallah

I also had a question for anyone out there whose spouse has already gone thorugh this:

Does anyone know how much it costs approx. for the biometrics, at the Isb Embassy? Are there any other fees to worry abt as well? Can he pay in dollars o need rupees?

Thanks in Advance

Did anybody that has traveled to pakistan get any vacinations before going? If so, what were they? I am going to swat in October and my fiance said there is not any mosquitoes around that time so dont worry about malaria. I just want to double check.

I do not think there is a vaccine for malaria. Your doctor can prescribe anti malarial medicine which you take like a week before getting there and then continue taking a week after you return. The medicine is nothing more than the actual drug used to cure the sickness. Malaria can be very hard on people who have never had it before.

waiting4s is correct you must take some pills for the malaria. I went in December and was requried to take the pills and I had two shots one was a tetnus and not sure of the other one but it was required before I could gain entry into Pakistan I was told.

Hey Guys....

Sorry I haven't been on but I have been so busy. I have updated my timeline. Currently I'm waiting for DS230 and praying that they accept everything we sent for the i-864. I just want it to hurry up and get to Islamabad so that we can get an interview. Also just wondering when he go for interview what exactly will he need. Where do you get Police Certificate in Lahore and how much is it? Do u think its possible for him to be here by end of September guys? Our baby will be born that time inshallah. I'm so stress out. Good luck to everyone.

Allah Hafiz

Do not want to sound like a downer, but my wifes interview date is in september, and our paper work was in islamabad in the begining of june. So, it is highly unlikely your husband would be here by september. He would have to go to the police station incharge of the area he lives in, to get the police certificate, its not supposed to cost anything, but you know pakistan. Also he would need certificates from every city/town he has lived in for longer than six months since he turned 16 years old.

Agree with waiting4s again. My husband's case was at the consulate in August and his interview was not until December. They are making you wait anywhere from 4-6 months when you are going the CR1 route. And the information on his police clearances is correct too. I suggest that he not get them too early since some providences are good for 3 months, 6 months and a few for one year.

Mubarak I was so happy to get your pm to come and adjust your status. May you have a safe trip home to your family shortly!
