Oh, good to know! Thanks! I didn't know there was a holiday since I don't think we had it here.

Out of curiosity, has anyone who was sent a decision letter on Nov. 4 received it yet? I have not and am starting to get worried since it seems to be taking a long time for within Canada mail.

Lizet, I know what you mean. I prepared to apply inland and had almost completely finished (but had not yet mailed it) when, through this forum, I realized outland would be much quicker for me (and allow more freedom to travel, if necessary.) So we decided to re-do the application to be outland...

Lizet, velkommen! Jeg bodde i Norge og kan snakke norkse, men jeg har ikke snakket det sa mye etter jeg flyttet hjemme til USA. :) Too funny! Anyhow, just wanted to say welcome and hi!

Jessi, I have no idea what stage of your career you are at, so perhaps this is not possible at your career level, but have you looked into any sort of exchange programs in journalism? Like some sort of internship/research/cultural exchange related to your field? Perhaps some type of grant to...

Our application was received on Oct 5, and our decision was also made on November 4th. Now we are just waiting on the mail....

HeatherUSA is totally right about the envelope size. I got mixed up because my other police report from another country came in the half-page size, with the folded sheet inside. Oops. Her comment jarred my memory, and mine was a big, light brown envelope too.

Re: What should the FBI clearance envelope look like? Huh, I opened mine and made a copy for myself before sending the original with the application. Unfortunately, I can't remember what color the envelope was. I think it was the size of a sheet of letter sized paper folded in half, but I am...

We paid in August and mailed in October. I think it should be fine since we sent the receipt and everything, but of course, I have not heard anything back yet since it is so early in our process.

The region checklist has priority, so make sure you send enough (3 as it sounds in your case) to cover the region requirements. We checked off the list for Canada and the list for the region, based on making sure we included enough to satisfy each list. So on our sponsor check list for the CIC...

Yes, they asked if I had been to see a doctor in the last three months and what it was for (then they said that if I had a re-occurrence of that, it would not be covered in this coverage). I think they also asked a few other questions about medical history, but I don't really remember.

I got temporary medical insurance with Blue Cross Quebec. And it was less expensive because I had already had the immigration medical exam, so I would make sure when you inquire (with any company) to ask if there is a discount for having done that. I would also tell them you have submitted your...

I had an easy time opening a checking account with RBC. Have not attempted to get a credit card yet, but I need to try to figure that one out...

Thank you so much! (And everyone else who started up and helped develop the list along the way too!) Yay!

Congrats, Hal! And congrats to everyone who has mailed in October. (And those that are getting ready to mail in the next couple days this month!) Hopefully, our thread will begin hearing some things about sponsorship approval in a week or two.

adi79, Sometimes the doctor's office does not give you this form. I got my medical exam done in Montreal, Canada and they only gave me a receipt which they said was all I needed as proof. After I figured out that the Outland list requires the IMM 1017, I spent about 3 weeks calling the doctor's...

I don't think it is required to do on every page, though the CIC instructions do include something about labeling supplemental pages with the relevant question number. But I personally wanted to do it on every page, and here's why: I used to work in an office that processed many, many college...

Hi Sparkle, I found this link helpful when I was organizing my application and trying to figure out what type of information to include as support: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/revised-outline-t47136.0.html I went with a more simple outline but kept the same...

elisea, unfortunately, I am not sure about the answer to your questions, but I wanted to let you know that the main October Thread is over here: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/thread-for-october-2010-applicants-t54333.120.html
