i tell you what big problem is that we are PAKISTANIS and above all muslims... so they don't want us in their country... just look at Indian processing time figures... and both countries are a high risk countries for immigration

I think you will have to have your marriage registered at Nadra otherwise BHC wont accept that you are legally married.
