    CHC, Islamabad Spouse Sponsorship Timeline 2011 -2012

    zohaib, the GCMS notes are a copy of all the notes that your VO has put on your file. it helps you determine what has happened to your file or not. you don't want to order them too soon, since they won't contain anything at that point. from what i've seen on this forum it is usually around...

    section A(4) it is no. since you are requesting your spouse's file, not your own. You also need to check the consent included box, and include the consent form (IMM5744), the consent form changed January 2013, so you most likely have to fill that in and send it in. (Your spouse signs on the...

    i've given my wife that scare a few times, unknowingly, cause my cell is a montreal number so when i would call it showed up on her cell as 001514XXXXXXX, and so when she missed a call with that number she misread it and thought it was someone from CHC-islamabad calling, :P ooooops

    Please Help!!

    if you are unable to meet your residency requirements, it is best to wait until you do meet them. stage 1 is checking the sponsor's approval (ie. you), so if there is doubt that you would qualify since your PR would expiry in july of this year then that may trigger off more inquiries into your...

    is having a lawyer necessery?

    having a lawyer is not necessary, and they don't increase your processing time or chances of approval. having a lawyer will help you navigate the documents and forms that need to be filled out. if it is a straightforward case then it is just about filling out the forms properly, attaching all...

    in my wife's instance they didn't send out anything till a month after the status changed on ecas to "in process" and due to the mail system in karachi, we got that remed letter about 45 days later!

    PPR is the last step, so by then background checks should have been completed.

    Re-medical was received today. What is the estimated timeline from now?

    each CHC office is different, for example in Islamabad you are almost guaranteed that you will go through a remed since the processing times are just so long. however following the remed, CHC-Islamabad usually finishes it in about 6 months. again each office is different, so you'll have to...

    no link between the two. they ask for the remed once the VO is going through your file and sends you the remed request, it is not requested based on the expiry of the previous one. in some cases they have asked for remed and PPR together, thus it was at the end of their processing of your...

    just cause the status has change to "in process" it does not mean that they actually sent you anything. Not all VOs update with the ecas with this status, so there isn't much of a link between this status update and you obtaining any request from them. Its normal. they may get the package...

    islamabad usually asks for a second medical exam when they start processing your case, this happens between the 13-17month mark (so far) after file transfer. following the second remed, most people have been able to get their visa within 6 months.

    Passport Request question

    not sure about the bogota vo, if they didn't express suggest it in your request letter, i would still send a prepaid courrier envelope to them. this way you know that it will be returned via courrier (ie. faster) than regular mail (i don't think they send pp via regular mail anyway).

    tracking DHL

    this might be best asking in the kingston thread to see how ppl tracked it for pp coming from the kingston VO. CHC-Islamabad used TCS and they seem to have a special arrangement with them so all packages from the embassy are sequentially numbered, so its easy to just go through them. based on...

    just to make sure, i suggest maybe a visit to your local TCS office to see if there are any pending packages for you? maybe they have a typo in the number to contact you for payment at the time of delivery (they usually have the number that the CHC gave them from your application). have you...

    Applicant and sponsor right to seek information?

    for GCMS, you are doing it under the access to information act ($5) and only a canadian citizen or PR can make such a request, and you are inquiring not about your file, but that of your spouse's which is in whatever VO you are at. you will need to have the consent of your spouse so that they...
