I decided not to write them or try to make an appointment. With much research i see that all I will get is that he is on AP and there is nothing we can do. I did however registered my trip with the embassy so they will know that I went there. I hope you hear some good news soon.

Salaam,

How's it going? Just giving a small update.......Well we are still on AP and working on our other stuff to re submit to embassy. Qasim has been to the Union Council and everything went okay except......now we have to wait 90 days for them to give him his certificate showing that his marriage is dissolved from his ex. Once he has that , then he can submit to embassy the papers that they were asking for. then wait to see what the CO person will say about the stuff. So, we are still waiting.....waiting .......waiting and waiting......PATIENTLY!!!

This is our luck and insha allaah it will all be fine in the end.

Ramadan Mubarik to all and your families......

I called DOS today and we are still pending AP ( which we still have to wait the 90 days with the other, so I guess we shouldn't be in any big hurry)

I hate this waiting game.......I think we all have waited for way to long...........................................................

Just have a lil patience and faith that it will be over soon.....insha allaah
