About getting MP's help...those who read my previous postings would know that in our case, we missed the original email asking for updated IM 5669 (18 year old history, not last 10 years). I knew it only through GCMS notes which came February (which meant 3 months delay), and immediately...

If you read the form, it still says 18 years or 10 years, whichever one is more recent. But if you actually follow that, there is a risk. Actually other people pointed it out too...some do not have any problems, but many get asked to fill in more information. That's what kept me worrying...

In our case HKVO wanted updated IMM5669 to have the status up to 18 years old, not past 10 years. We did not get the email, and only read it in the GCMS notes what that email should have looked like...it would have added after IMM5669 that you need to write the history up to 18 years old. Not...

Optimistically, HKVO probably did not close the file yet...it did not show that on the GCMS notes which showed the situation as of Dec 30. I did see in this forum that someone waited over 1 year, ordered the notes and found out that the VO sent request for information but was not received. In...

True, but the hard way...my wife is not as IT savvy, and I do not read her emails to respect her privacy...well, things fell through the cracks this time. It's frustrating where the case stands now, as it's just over 90 days instead of the 30 days...who knows if HKVO closes the file. I am...

Worst case happened...GCMS notes arrived, and apparently something came in November, and the hotmail account deleted it automatically. Basically the standard list which we submitted already, but IMM5669E wants history up to 18 years old...we had up to year 2000 which is not quite 18 years old...

Thanks Doradetw. My wife never got any emails, and similar information was sent originally in my SA approval letter (PDF attachment in email)...saying my dependent should get medical done if not already, and pay the fee if it has not been paid. Then in eCas, things showed up (looking at it...

Thanks for sharing "doradetw". Reason why I am concerned we would miss something is that we realized my wife's hotmail auto deleted many incoming emails, possibly ones from CIC. (I applied for her eTA just in case we would travel over during the summer should the application not go through by...

Thanks. Just that the addresses still do not match up. Anyway, GCMS notes should be coming soon, so I'll take a look at that first. By the way, to "doradetw" or "yvrtpe168", I see in the spreadsheet that both of you were asked additional documents? Was it from HKVO or Mississauga? Email or...

Thanks. Do you remember if HKVO used the address in Chinese Characters or was it in English? The instructions asked for address in Chinese characters saying it'll prevent mailing problems...but if they don't use it, then it's really stupid to ask for it.

Hi again to all the Taiwan applicants. My wife's application is in progress (still staying that way since end of October), and I ordered GCMS notes which should arrive in the next week or 2. We chose to have communication from CIC to come via email. I got SA approval in my email. My wife...

There aren't too many Taiwan applicants here, so I am also interested to hear from other Taiwanese applicants. Please share your timeline on the spreadsheet (said I cannot post links, so you can read other posts who have attached the link to the spreadsheet). There are only a few on the...

It's best that you get your son's citizenship and passport application underway. Your wife's sponsorship and your son's application are 2 different things, and there's no reason why they cannot be done in parallel. As it is done nowadays, you first get the citizenship clarified, and after that...

Thanks. I checked all the docs I downloaded...the 3907E version was 08-2014 which did not have the requirement! This new link is 12-2015 version. I was always so skeptical about the photo spec which did not ask for photographer's chop or information, as I always had to get that done myself...

Re: Hong Kong timeline (Taiwan passport) To Benitaagogo or any other Taiwan applicant. I followed instructions and submitted all the documents (including medical, police report, etc.) for my wife's application. For the photos, I followed the dimensions stated in the document. The...
