thanks again for the help!!

Its an housing agency he's communicating with. If the agency writes a letter that by the end of six months contract, it shall be renewed, is it going to suffice or should he extend his contract already before applying for visa??

does that mean if you're from pakistan, a registered nikah nama at nadra is sufficient because ive been told that the translated nikah nama has to go to british high comission for attestation. is that true?

well my husband in england has rented a house for 6 months and has the tenancy agreement but by the time we apply, only three months would be left. is the tenancy agreement valid or should he extend it before we apply?

on the website it shows that i cannot even use the points based calculator if i am applying for spouse visa. is that true??

i am an mbbs degree holder n pakistan and i have never applied for naric comparability document. do i need to??

He means that they had their nikah in october but the traditional rukhsati(proper pakistani wedding) will be somewhere near march.
