I have just got some amount transferred to my bank as a gift from my father. Now, I am trying to get a Gift Deed made. I have some questions:
  1. Even my father did not had the money and we arranged from various sources into his account and then got them transferred to mine using a cheque. Would it be an issue? I mean I think it could be an issue only if his bank statements are also checked since the amount got transferred to his account in the last 10 days.
  2. At the bottom of the gift deed, there is a place for me to sign. My father is in India and the gift deed will be made in India. The witnesses also are in India who will sign. However, I am in US and the gift deed mentions my address from US. Since I cannot be present in India to sign I can either not sign the proposal at all or sign it after getting the original copy shipped to US. However, won’t that be illegal since the gift deed is made in India and I am in US so how can I sign?
  3. Since I have recently moved to US, I do not have funds here. So I got the amount transferred from my Father’s account in India to my India based account even though I am living in US. Would it be an issue?
1. IRCC cannot ask for your father's account statement, though they can ask for the source of funds. If the gift deed expressly mentions the account details and how the funds were transferred, you are good. No need to worry.

2. The gift deed can be shipped to you and you can sign, its is not illegal.

3. No, see 1.

hi legalfalcon

my aor 15june 2018
medical 29th june
ip1 29th june
rprf not yet requested
got my notes on 15th aug

would highly appreciate if you could answer the following questions which are part of my gcms notes

1. misrepresentation info sharing of spouse- in progress what does this mean?
mine is complete

2. page 85 is withheld because of section 13(1)(a).. what does this mean?

3. batchnote: text: important: incoming correspondence that was at provided has been flipped to received in bulk. incoming information need to be reviewed at next due date

again the same batch note was mentioned on 5aug
1. Not necessary, you will have a separate entry for it in the notes, and in some cases it may be retracted.

2. Not everything the GCMS notes is disclosed, some aspects are retracted under law, and s13 is one of them.

13(1) Subject to subsection (2), the head of a government, institution shall refuse to disclose any record requested under this Act that contains information that was obtained in confidence from

  • the government of a foreign state or an institution thereof;
  • an international organization of states or an institution thereof;
  • the government of a province or an institution thereof; or
  • a municipal or regional government established by or pursuant to an Act of the legislature of a province or an institution of such a government.
Also see https://www.getgcms.com/blog/s15-s16-top-right-gcms-denote/

3. There are notes that are common to many applications.

Hi @legalfalcon
My medical was expired in June 2018. However, from my cbsa notes I just received, the current status of medial is "In Progress". Kindly guide me what does it mean? Will they extend it or will ask for re medical after security clearance? Thanks!
If your meds have expired, then you can request IRCC to renew your meds. IRCC will make a decision to either renew it or ask you for a new one. Your status in CBSA depicts that you they are reviewing you meds and may ask you to re-do.

Hello @legalfalcon ,

In the PCC that I obtained from UAE, my name is written as "NAME FATHER'S NAME SURNAME". However, in all my other documents, my name is written as "NAME SURNAME".

Will this cause rejection ?

What is the sort of action to take ? I have received ITA on 22 August 2018, which means I have 37 days left to submit my application.

Many thanks in advance,

Quorn
No, this will not lead to rejection.

Just file a one and same name affidavit.

Hi @legalfalcon

I have applied for extension of my work permit for self and my dependents on June 20th and haven't got any response from cic yet. At this situation can I apply for Canadian PR while my work permit extension is in progress?? If I apply for the pr now will it have any legal complications in future?? Kindly advice.
You can apply for PR at any stage and it will have no complications.

@legalfalcon is there any time frame as to when the visa officers has to take final decision on our file and conclude their decision as its been more than six months i am waiting for an interview date don't know when they will conduct interview and my application is completing 1 year within couple of days
Unfortunately there is no time frame. IRCC can take its leisure time and there have been cases where it has taken a long time, almost 2 years before a decision was made.

You should send emails raise CSE and request GCMS notes to keep a track of your application,. Requesting CBSA notes may not be a bad idea.

My application was received in December 2017. My file was marked: Eligibility Review Required since February 15, 2018.

Does this mean the review is what's been done now?
For the current status you need the latest set of GCMS notes. If your last GCMS notes showed review required, then by now there should have been some progress.

@legalfalcon thanks for your prompt response. To whom shall I request for medical extension? Shall I raise a case specific inquiry or to write my local visa office? Any negative impact for requesting medical extension? Thanjs

@legalfalcon Please help with below situation.
My wife is PA and we have got ITA.Before marriage her name was Simone Jose and after marriage Simone Keith.
Name on her passport is Simone Jose.All documents including PCC,WES,IELTS are in the name of Simone Jose.
Only Marriage certificate has name Simone Keith for which an notarized affidavit (almost 2 years old) is there to support that Simone Jose and Simone Keith are same person.Can it lead to rejection ?

Do both. No negative impact. IRCC will either accept it or ask for re-meds

Hello Sir

I have work experience from oct 2008 till feb 2014 and that is what i updated in my express entry. I received ITA as well. I do have job verification letter from employer stating all the details what CIC has asked. My question is do I need to attach my paystubs and/or IT returns as well?

Thanks in advance again for all your help
