They say that Muslims are forbidden to do some things, such as sexual contact, during Ramadan. If this is true, with his wife just newly arriving in America, how can Abby abstain from you know what?

Any way, Happy Rosh Hashanah!

taj'samericanwife,

Did your husband get PCC from Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar & Philippines, all 4 places and sent the originals with DS-230 packet?

Now as per my understanding if interview is at US Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, he needs to get fresh/latest PCC only from his current place of residence for his IR-1 visa interview and do not need to get PCC from all other previous places where he used to lived. Am I correct on this?

My wife visa interview will be next month & I am preparing for that.

Thanks

By the way in Pakistan, after the IR-1/CR-1 medical they do not keep the passport.

my husband is pakistani but he has been living in the philippines for 6 years now and the interview is scheduled in manila philippines.

he is only required to show 3 police clearance:

1. from peshawar (because after he turned 16 he lived there for about 3 years) then when he was 19 he moved to the philippines.

2. from baguio city philippines (current city he has lived for 6 years in the philippines) and

3. NBI police clearance.

we gave the original police clearances all 3 to NVC and we have another set of originals for the interview including another original freah copy from peshawar pakistan (which is one of the things required to be shown again at the embassy in manila as instructed in his appointment letter)

FYI: in manila, philippines after the medical exam, they take the passports and will forward it to the u.s. consulate in manila.

LOL..During Ramadan, muslims can't do such thing after the Fajr Prayer until Maghrib Prayer.

But between these times they can.
