I will share a story that is not relevant to situations here … but just sharing with you guys because this is the second time I am suffering due to substandard service of NDVO … I came to Canada as a dependent in the year 2000 and this happened while our application was in process … there were no passport stampings back then and the process was mostly paper based, so a printed paper called Record of Landing was meant to be visa …. we didn't hear back for a long time after medicals and as the medicals were about to expire, my dad decided to go and enquire at NDVO … he told the officials about our situations .. and as they entered file number into their system, it showed up that visas had been issued 2 months ago ... they asked if we didn't receive them by post ... my dad told them we didn't get anything after medical request ... the official asked to wait so he will go and check it inside (other cabins where the work is actually done, this guy was at the information window outside) ... he came back after sometime with a package which was a sealed envelope with our visas, even with our home address on it, which was supposed to be posted 2 months ago ... instead they kept it aside and later forgot about it... such an unbelievable act of irresponsibility … its irrelevant here but came to mind so thought of sharing
Everything is computerised now a days so chances of something like that are unlikely ... but still, the way they are handling files now is very disheartening ... some are left unattended for no reason .. some are transferred late .... now waiting for PPR... this... that
