in that case ur uk registertion is not valid ..cuz u Were overstayed ..Unless ur spouse was à euorpean ..
so If u have done nikkah in Pakistan again then register that with the council ..i m sure u can Make another one as long as u got married here n u got photos ..everything legit ..contact ur molvi Who did ur nikkah ....how in the Hell did u loose ur nikkah nama ..there Are three copies of it .

Ukvi wont accept ur uk nikkah cuz u over stayed.

In sha Allah... Deffo, i even just checked the visa processing times, they've added 120 days percentage as well now, which is 21%...maybe that shows there was a substantial backlog and In sha Allah they are clearing it up with positive responses

Sorry to say this, but quite honestly, I can't mislead you. They will 100% refuse that straight away.
It's like handing in everything with a salary of £16k.

Get the correct amount in for 6 months immediately and then re-apply.
