Should it be stated in SOP about Wife's English ?!

Post by TryllZ » Thu Jan 02, 2025 2:28 pm

Hi,

I'm the husband, and am preparing my wife's SOP, on her behalf as she is not fluent in English.

So should I state in the SOP that I, the husband, has written this SOP on my wife's behalf, or my husband is writing this SOP on my behalf as I cannot communicate in English properly ?

Or anything of this sort, can someone clarify this.

Thanks1..

I don't even know what SOP is. You'd have to provide more context.

Why do you need to write this for her? Is she coming to Ireland to visit? And so on.

Sorry didn't receive any notification about this reply..

Yes, I need to bring her to Ireland, this is not for Visit, its Join-Family, Spouse..

SOP is Statement of Purpose, its called Letter of Application as per Irish Immigration..

MRC | Pakistan | Attest or Apostille ?

Post by TryllZ » Mon Jan 13, 2025 7:55 am

Hi,

Can some one advise if the MRC (Marriage Registration Certificate) need to be Attested or Apostilled, and what is the fees for it, as both are mentioned on Irish Immigration, and both are offered by MOFA, but Attestation of MRC is specified on MOFA's website.

I'm getting confused as to which one to apply for.

Thank You

Re: MRC | Pakistan | Attest or Apostille ?

Hi,
From what I know, any birth/marriage certificates from other countries have to be attested and apostilled by that country to be recognised as valid in other countries eg Ireland.
There are specialized companies in most countries to whom you pay a fee and they'll get the original document attested by a notary and then get it apostilled by that government. Or you could get it done yourself by getting your certificate attested by any notary and then sending it to the foreign office in your country to get it apostilled. After these two steps, your locally issued birth/marriage certificate will be recognized by other countries.

Hope this helps.

BW,

Purpose of asking Relative in ireland, UK ?!

Post by TryllZ » Mon Jan 20, 2025 8:57 pm

Hi,

Can anyone advise what might be the purpose of knowing if the applicant has any relatives in Ireland, UK for a Spouse visa application.

What does the Visa Officer determine by this, if any one knows.

My wife has a distant relative (wife's mother's sister's son's daughter, who is a Doctor) in Ireland, should I mention this ?

Thank You

You can show tax return of your wife with zero income. This can be done online https://iris.fbr.gov.pk/

Monthly spouse expenses, amount sent, misc expenses, receipts etc ?!

Post by TryllZ » Sat Feb 15, 2025 1:32 pm

Hi All,

I'm preparing for my spouse visa application, and wanted some clarification.

1) I'm from Pakistan and send about PKR 15,000 monthly back to my spouse (~€55) via Western Union. This covers her for the month, is it too less ?!. If someone can share how much they send back home for their spouse that would be great (I know its different for evey person, I just want to have an idea).

2) How to know how to present the below as asked by immigration.

Because she lives in a joint-family but separate room, washroom, shared cooking area. The house is on my father's name so there is no rent to pay. Utility bill is for the whole house as its a single meter. My brother and his family, and both parents also stays in the same house (Ground Floor), and wife stays on the Upper floor.

Groceries are for the whole house, plus there are no receipts as its from cart sellers, or the market which has no digital receipts.

Any suggestions, advise would be helpful.

Thank You
