Hi guy, I read all the instruction on the website as I said when I called NVC ; they told me the birth certificate and the marriage certifucate is not from th eissuing authority I really do not what did they mean with it...I am now prepared with new DS 230 with my original sign on page 1 (as DS 230 item no 30 was incorrect as per NVC), my original police certificate; my original nikkah nama in URDU (attested by union council and notary pulic), Translation version of Marriage certificate (attested by the translator and foriegn affairs, notary pulic), original Birth Certificate (attested by Karachi metropolitan corporation, notary public foreign affairs), 4 passport photographs (2x2), boigraphic data of passport.Also I have attached the barcode sheet ATTN. to DR plus photocopies of all the documents with my NVC case number on every documents.

Anything else remaning at my end please let me know if ther is any attestation left on my side, does this Union council attestation (registrar) on marriage certificate is the issuing authority like for birth certificate Karachi metropolitan is the issuing authority doesnt this work then did they say not attested from issuing authority.

Please guide me if anyone of you can...

Take caresss,

We set our nikah which was done at the local Masjid and it was stamped and signed by the issuing autorities there... and we sent our translation in enlgish again stamped by the ppl that did it.. and we took our nikah to NADRA had it registered and once we had it we took all the documents, everything that my husband had in hand to the foreign ministry affairs and had copies of everything made and they stamped all the copies and attested they were copies of the originals. We kept the copies for back ups and sent in all the other things including our original nikah original translation in english and original NADRA certificates.

my Nikkah in URDU was stammped by Masjid and the registrar union council and then by notary and foriegn affairs while the english is the exact translation of the urdu one and attest by translator and notary foriegn affairs doesnt this suffice, another thing I hav ejust raised the request in NADRA for my borth certificate and nikkah registration once I wil get then do i need to stamped it from any authority again or not.

We only went to the foreign affairs office to get copies that were attested as true copies for back ups we didnt' want to have any issues of losing originals and having to go get them again.

They do stamp at the NADRA when you pick up your documents from there. So if you don't want to go to the foreign ministry office you don't have to.. we only did as precaution.

I again repeat, union council and karachi metropolitan are 100% issuing authorities. You are good to go. But if you still have doubt you may also submit computerized marriage certificate and birth certificate from NADRA. It is just one more precautionary step.
