    Dear Farhana, I am not against cross checking I just dont want to face it cause I am a nervous person. I would still recommend people to make your both family members well informed and expect a phone call during the interview and/or later on. I know my dad is 10 times worst than me to deal with...

    Dear Farhana, As per my understanding 17 months is the general timeline for all applicants. It varies from different visa offices. This is what I find from CIC website: Why did processing times information change? Prior to December 31, 2015, processing times for many of our services were...

    Dear Farhana, Isn't the interview waiting time varies depending on the Visa office? New Delhi can have higher or lower waiting time than Singapore I think.

    Dear Hasan, You think it is wise to take extra person with you in the interview? IMO I wouldn't take nobody with me but prepare everyone in my family and expect a phone call from them. Cause I think it's less nerve racking to talk on the phone than face to face.
