Re: Email received to pick up passport with visa affixed from DAMASCUS Well, be logical, if they cannot find the passport [God forbid] then I would assume he would ha ve to make a new one....how else can he travel?

OH I know.. what is that BS about re-unifying families in a short amoutn of time!?? How can it possibly take that long to process a file, when many offices are done within 12 weeks (3 months) or less!???? How is that fair!? My MP told me that it can 'take' up to 24 months to process, but the...

Paradise, I feel your pain, and am so sorry to hear you had to endure that by yourself!! Nothing can return those prescious moments :(. I am worse to give advice because I am so angry and hate this process so much. They tell you one thing, then tell other elected officials something else...

Re: Email received to pick up passport with visa affixed from DAMASCUS OMG - how can they misplace a PASSPORT!?? AND how is that OK!??? Freaking ridiculous!!! They have 15 I/O's there and they can't even keep track of a very important and valueable document!???? Sadly, they have worn the...

Mr. Lonely, I can only echo what others have said, when you are passing through the system, and are being requested items and no interview call - this is good. When they are requesting additional items, and then they request the Right of Landing Fee - this is excellent - they would not request...

Re: Email received to pick up passport with visa affixed from DAMASCUS So Marlena did your husband get his passport back finally - I've been off line - what is your news these days? When is he finally coming to Canada??

Thanks Genio everyone, I am back online since a few days - doing the best I can amidst all of the GLORIOUS approvals of VISA's and passport pickups - all of which don't include ours. This process sucks. I am becoming extremely cynical - and am doing my best to hold back the cynical comments...

ACtually genio, my MP is the foreign affairs critic in the Can gov't, so they are a bit more versed than some other, and I have learneda lot more about the process from a procedural perspective. There was a recent bill pased to reform can imm- ironically it did not address more than 10% of what...

frolic - I was not speaking in terms of actual times - but being an immigrant myself, and having many friends who have pass through the process as well, I can say there is a process that all i/o's pass through - that all charts pass through. these 'timelines' irrespective that you speak of, I...

KIm, there is another thread of many, many people who are sponsoring from Morocco - you should connect as you will find many with actual experience from that particular visa office. Here is the link to that thread...

What do you mean deegirl, by rights? Your rights under Shariah law? Your rights as a wife? Your rights as a canadian? Your rights for what, and with respect to what exactly? salam rasha

While I will agree, that no two cases are the same, I do think that one can pull similarities from cases with respect to how a particular VISA office examines and reviews cases [vis-a-vis cultural aspects etc...]. Similarly no two cases are the same for any I/O - but there is a manual of OP's...

Re: Email received to pick up passport with visa affixed from DAMASCUS CONGRATS again Marlena!!! You are on a roll :-) I am very envious that you applied after me and are already done, but congrats and all the best :-).

Congrats Marlena ! :-) It's just a matter of time now for the passport to come back :-).

Nope no word here.. and yeah the PR card is Black and White - I have one too :-). The photo makes me look like a criminal lol.

Congrats Suhail !! Alhumdulellah :-). Welcome to Canada :-)

misrepresentation is misrepresentation. If you had a c/law partner prior to your application being approved, and you did not amend your application appropriately (all the application procedures for him just as you did etc... with the request and guidance of the CIC), AND he is not listed on the...

I really wish Cairo would get its act together. Tara your timeline is incredible. I really don't know why it is taking me and others in Cairo so long to pass through - even in the simplest of cases.... :( So really, consider yourself blessed coz that would never occur in Egypt - at least i have...

Looking to speak with individuals who have had any experience with applying for permanent residence through the Cairo, Egypt office, either through Family Class Sponsorship or otherwise. What were your experiences and comments? thanks, Salam Rasha

Don't get me started really. My husband said the same thing, how can they give us the file number, and they haven't even reviewed the file at least. But nope. Spoke to the MP's office yesterday - I was live with Boncuk online, so I was typing everythign out to her as I heard it... They have...
