    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Yes, the consent form is uploaded with the request for GCMS notes. The notes take 30 days (or sometimes more) to arrive from the date of your request. They are usually captured the day after they are requested, so they are old news by the time you get them. Details about the sponsor are...

    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Ankara does not acknowledge receipt of documents. The best way to check on an application is to order the GCMS notes. We received our notes last week and found out that my wife had been approved on Sept. 23. Her background check has been in progress since Dec. 12.

    JUNE 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    :D I received the GCMS notes this morning, and my wife passed her eligibility way back on Sept. 23 (June 29 applicant - Ankara VO.) They cite: Excessive chat history (of which they kept samples and shredded the rest), our photos, my pastor's letter and my uncle/best man's 5-page letter (which...

    They did not respond when we sent a requested document. No mention of it in my CIC, but Ecas did mention the date that they sent us the request, but nothing about receiving it.

    Did the interviewer ask your husband about his travels and did he answer that he had no travel history?

    Yes, indeed. 5.5 months vs 15 months is great for Georgia! An acquaintance of my wife (also from Tbilisi) was approved in August after exactly 6 months.

    The Decision Made is most likely an approval, as CIC would have sent you an explanation by email in the case of a rejection of your sponsorship. :)

    Did they ask you to upload it to your myCIC account (to speed things up?)

    I think they have waived the interview, in your case, since your background check is in progress and they have asked you for a new PCC. Your spouse's approval is around the corner. :)

    Thanks and I hope so too. If/when my wife is approved, she will be moving into my parents' home in Dorchester, NB, on the Bay of Fundy. My dad has been finishing the basement to make room for us. If - God forbid - her application is not approved, then I will be moving into her parents' home in...

    There is no required amount of photos. You should be fine with 20. We sent our photos of my week spent with my wife in Georgia back in June because that's all we had together. We also married at the House of Justice because my wife's orthodox priest would not marry us as I am Lutheran. My...

    Actually, the part of the form that asks for spouse's travel history is not meant for the sponsoring spouse who is already either a citizen or a Canadian PR. It is meant for the accompanying spouse of a PR applicant who is applying under a different class, not spousal sponsorship class. We...

    Hi, The CIC website says 27 days. The sponsor gets either an email or a letter to confirm SA. I received a letter, instead of an email, about 2 weeks after I was approved as sponsor.

    Hi, I have sponsored my wife who is Georgian and who has never travelled outside of Georgia. We applied on June 29 and she got the request for IMM 5562 on September 27. She checked off "I have not travelled" and included my travels since the age of 18 (only 2 trips outside of Canada, one of...
