    Applications processed in Pretoria

    Hey I am sorry to hear of the delay....very frustrating!! When we first applied, Pretoria lost our medical too! They even signed for it when DHL delivered it. In the end, our medical expired and we had no choice but to do it again, $700 later!!! Doesn't matter if it is their fault, they don't...

    Hey there For us, we knew the medicals were going to expire, but we waited for them to notify us. This was via email, and they actually emailed us the form to take to the dr. They used one of the pictures we were required to send on our initial Pkg, and attached that on to a form- I forget the...

    Hepatitis B positive but inactive

    They can't refuse him for any medical condition if he is your spouse. Unless dr says he must take treatment and he is refusing, but that's not the case.

    Where to add Pictures?

    We taped them onto paper , identified all the people, the place and date. All pics were in the back of the pkg and were referenced throughout our application. Eg, married on April 8, e we footnoted the page where the pic could be found.

    Paper Clips?

    No clips. Just put your probably 200page application in an envelope and send. The VO takes or all apart anyway

    How can I prevent a marriage fraud from happening ?

    I don't think CIC will see this as bona fide, ESP if they haven't really spent time together and both sides haven't spent time with the. Etc..... He has to prove that it is genuine. If u dr even n believe it, them CiC prob won't. There are red flags everywhere. But who knows. You also run the...

    Someone help me

    Agreed. Asking when will not speed up the process. Look up your wait time and assume it will take that long and be patient! Ours took 14 months so you need to be patient!

    education system in canada

    Sorry dont know what HND means. Most schools are very competitive and you have to get your application in early. So start first with the city you will be visiting and go from there.

    Lots of jobs in Alberta related to the oil industry. Mst likely you won't get a job in a major city like Edmonton or Calgary, you will have to go up north closer to fort McMurray or into the remote areas where they usually send foreign workers because locals won't go work there.

    Medical Report

    To be honest, I don't think they really care that the medical was sent to the wrong office, meaning, they're not going to go out of their way to transfer that medical to the correct place. Ours got lost when we applied, and even though someone at the correct office signed for it, we have DHL...

    Lost Medical/ Unable to Locate Medical

    If they requested you to do it, then do it ASAP ! They sent us a new form to take to the dr when we had to redo ours. We tried to redo it ourselves, but the dr said he needed a form from them saying it needed to be redone so you need to take the form they emailed to you to your dr and get it done!

    If you're a new driver you need a graduated drivers licence. This is what teenagers need to get first. You can then only drive if someone in the car has a drivers license. After 2 years ( I think) with this GDL you can then get a real drivers license. There are driving schools everywhere, just...
