Home Address different on Pakistani NIC card and Nikah Nama

Post by HXM872 » Fri Dec 26, 2014 12:44 pm

Hi,

I recently got married in Pakistan. I live in UK and my wife is living in Pakistan at the moment. I am a British citizen and will be soon applying for uk spouse visa for my pakistani wife. The house addresses of my wife and me on Pakistani NIC ID card and nikkah nama (marriage certificate) are completely messed up and I cant think of a way how to solve it to not confuse the ECO.

Nikah khawan (who carried out the marriage) wanted a pakistani address to be put on the nikkah nama (marriage certificate) rather than my actual UK address. So he wrote my relative's pakistani address as my current address on nikkah nama (marriage certificate). For my wife, nikkah khawan (who carried out the marriage) wrote her actual pakistani address where she lives with her parents at the moment.

Now recently, my wife got her surname changed to husbands name on her pakistani NIC ID card. The permanent address in her ID card has been stated to be my relative's address (in Pakistan) which was my address on nikkah nama and her temporary address is stated to be her grandmother's address (as it was in the ID before the surname change) rather than her actual current address (stated on Nikkah nama).

I would also like to add that I have overseas pakistani NIC ID card which states my actual UK address as my present address and my relative's pakistani address to be permanent address.

I am pretty confused with the addresses and worried that it may create a problem and confuse the ECO when they check and verify our documents

I am wondering if someone could give me an advice on how I solve this mess of different addresses so that it does not confuse the ECO when i apply for Uk spouse visa for my wife ? What house address should my wife state in the UK spouse visa application ?

Don't worry about it. Everything will be ok. It's not an issue at all. When u r marrying in Pakistan how u expect the nikah khawan to write your UK address in nikah nama? Nikah khawan did the right thing. As u hold both nationalities. U must have some temporary accommodation in Pakistan to live.

Main thing is her ID card carrying your name and on her passport they write your name under (husband's name).

If the marriage is genuine and u have proofs to submit with your application than nothing to worry about
