    Voltage in Canada

    Hi, we need some help with our sewing machine. My wife bought it in Thailand where the voltage is 220 and now, here in Canada, the voltage is 110, so the sewing machine doesn't work. It's a $1000 dollar sewing machine, so we don't want to have to buy a new one. Is there some way to up the...

    Thanks for the replies. Seeing how long it has taken people (1-2 weeks in some cases), I feel less worried. We might just wait until the request since it's not a very convenient time for us now.

    Thanks so much for the detailed reply. I do have a question about the police check. The CIC website says we need to get a letter from them to bring to Bangkok police station. I haven't been given any letter yet though. We thought about just going but we're far from Bangkok and don't want to...

    Oops! I meant PA, not PR! I appreciate your concern! Thanks for the replies. I'm glad to hear peoples' applications are moving forward. My wife and I are mentally prepared to move after Songkran in April and are hoping we won't be delayed. Good luck everyone!

    Hi, everyone. My wife (PR) and I are in Thailand. We're April applicants. We got the AOR2 in late July (while my wife got the AOR2 in last week). We haven't been asked to do police check or medical yet. I'm assuming this is normal. Is there any estimate on the wait once Singapore has received...

    ***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    ECAS status changed to 'In Process' as of July 21st. Can someone please update? We haven't received anything since SA on May 15th. We uploaded our Schedule A, but apparently Thailand needs a letter from CIC before we can do our PCC. Haven't received any word on medical yet either. It's at...

    ***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    Hi, I would like some advice. We received AOR on May 10th and spousal sponsorship approval on May 14th. That's the last email we got. I registered to GCKey May 16th. After a month of waiting, we sent schedule A. It was received and our GCKey changed to: "We do not need additional documents."...

    PCC request for spouse visa translated?

    Does the PCC request form for a spouse visa need to be translated into the country's native language? Thanks

    So if I understand this correctly, send in Schedule A through IRCC if you don't get any request. Wait for PCC request. Get form entitled, "Request for Police Certificates/Clearances and Authorization for Release of Information" (PC_LetterA). Does that request form need to be translated?

    ***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    Thanks. I looked through our GCKey account and couldn't find the police check form. Are we supposed to wait until CIC requests it and links a form for us? We linked our application a month ago and nothing has changed, no messages aside from "application has been linked". We submitted Schedule A...

    Police Certificate - Thailand

    Thanks a lot! Is the special branch police station the one that CIC gives (at Rama 1, Pathumwan)? You didn't need the CIC letter, marriage certificate, passport photos, etc? My wife will be flying in for the day so we want to be prepared.

    Police Certificate - Thailand

    The website says we need a "copy of the request for a police certificate issued by Citizenship and Immigration Canada". Do we need to wait for this or is a generic form to print out? (If it's a generic form, where can I get it?) Also, does this form need to be translated? Thanks, Pat P.S. We...
