Had a great experience at the Embassy! Very friendly and helpful, I had to reschedule my original interview due to some personal reasons and I reached out to them and they helped me reschedule on the day I requested.
I reached the Shuttle place at 8am, checked in and they offered the bus or private car, I decided to pick the car which was for Rs. 5,000. I got to the Embassy at 8:15am, my appointment was for 9am, they let me in right away. Got my finger prints done, waited 10-15mins for the interview.
The officer was very friendly, and asked few questions and a document which I gave, and she looked at my wedding album and said your visa is approved. Two days later, I checked the status it was issued. Just waiting to pick up my passport.
I had also scheduled another appointment for CRBA for our son the next day, I have to say it is a very easy process. It takes about 3.5hours with the entire process.
I must tell that when you go for pictures in Pakistan they take a close up picture which is not their policy and will require you to re-take the picture at the embassy. I suggest my fellow friends to make sure you take proper pictures so you don't have issues. It is not the embassy's fault, it is the local photographers in Pakistan they don't take proper pictures.
I must appreciate the staff including the guards for how professional and helpful they are.
