    By look of things right now, I would say it was a darn good idea. I think I will send mine too. Did you send T4A or T4 or both. I only got T4A. Our department is weird in all aspects.

    Hey Kazi Did you send them with your application or updated later??? Two years of pay stub, that would be a long document, but is a wise idea. Do you guys think it will make a difference now. My application has not gone for eligibility only selection and security done and POF requested...

    They don't send passports to India. High Commission checks online through secure system and DC office that I mentioned in my earlier post sends them report based on database. If DC office doesn't respond in required time (they are bound to), HC issues it anyways assuming no adverse report. It...

    Weird, even if Montreal BLS made a mistake, Ottawa would send back the package. Maybe regulations changed. I applied March 26, received April 12th.

    Keep passports??? In my case they didn't. Recheck with them. Maybe Brampton office works different.

    If married/ registered, update now, its easier. if you become PR alone, then you have to sponsor her as a spouse and will take additional time. A friend of mine added his spouse even after medical request and they asked for her info from scratch and he was delayed, but he was not in PhD stream...

    Hi Megha Sorry to hear about the unfortunate events in your life lately. I would recommend not withdrawing the application. Instead, inform them of the recent developments and provide a civil disunion document if the separation is mutual and if you have it. Else just inform them. They will...

    I agree with the pathetic experience with BLS. VFS was way lot better. I was asked at the center to bring 4 photos as they rejected the one I had because it was 2mm more in size >:(. I went and got new ones on the spot, paid hell loads of money, came back and was told by the the processing...

    I recently applied to BLS to get a new PCC for my new passport. 4-6 wks is true for brampton but it might be earlier too as these are estimated times. The reason is the high commission in toronto is overloaded and you cannnot apply to any other jurisdiction. I have a friend who applied to Ottawa...

    No she had more than an year but she didnt attach as she didnt have a letter from department outlining her duties in her appointment letter and she assumed them not to be part of RA. Later when she read through posts, she realized that even if its implied as a PhD student to do all this stuff...

    Thanks for the response. But I also found the following quotation from the OP-6 and she didn't fill in the NOC code in her application. Well it should not hurt. Officers must:  consider only those occupations which the applicant has specified and for which the applicant has provided the...
