Hello Everyone,
I wanted to know if anyone have a good knowledge or have been through the sponsorship process where the spouse is living in Afghanistan. I am most interested to know how to deal with Police check/clearance and also birth certificate.
Anything else that I should know please feel free to share.
Thank you everyone.
