How many of those are spousal immigrants? And the vast majority of immigration into the UK recently is from eastern Europe due to admission of Poland into the EU. As far as I'm concerned this is totally and absolutely irrelevant to the issue at hand -- that is sponsorship of a *spouse* into the...

You have my condolences. The whole system is disgusting. Do you know how long it takes to sponsor a Singaporean into the UK from China? 1 month. From Singapore, 7 days. Why is the Canadian system so broken?

Thanks for your advice. It doesn't change my viewpoint tho. Simply put: Any policy that punishes the innocent is wrong. Something must change in our country -- of that I am firmly convinced. It also sounds like you are saying... this is the way that our immigration system works and you should...

My sister's application for her bf will take at least a year. I was told by a senior supervisor in NL that it will take at least 7-8 months before the application is processed by Canada, and forwarded to Beijing where is will take around 4 months. Why does it take 7 days for the UK, btw? What...

BTW, my wife just told me show owns 1/3rd of her parents house (her name is on the house deed as one of the three owners). This was not submitted as part of the TRV claim. Would this make any difference? What else might make a difference? For example, if I placed a sum of money in her Chinese...

How about a lawsuit against the Canadian government for their racist TRV policies that deny Canadian citizens the right to bring their legal spouses into the country? My sister didn't have any problem whatsoever in bringing her British boyfriend into Canada. Its a sad state -- China has a...

You know what is most ironic in all of this? On the spousal sponsorship application it asks whether my wife has met my children & family. If not, why not. Well, the answer is clear to this one. "No, she has not because you morons denied her a visa to visit Canada". To be honest at this point I...

We are in a similar situation. My Shanghainese wife was denied a TRV without an interview. We were told nothing. I am disgusted. I cannot believe what a nation of bigots and racists Canada has become. Do you know how long spousal sponsorship takes for the UK from Singapore? 7 days. From China...

How ludicrous. She is my wife! What is mine is hers -- at least that is the law in Canada! How can *she* own a home? We would both own the home. As far as a job goes -- that is also equally ridiculous. What does a job mean anyway? If she wants to stay in Canada she could just as well not return...

I'm a Canadian citizen living and working in Shanghai, China for almost 3 years. I recently married a Shanghainese woman and wanted to take her home for a couple of weeks to visit my family, children and friends. We submitted an application with the Canadian consulate here in Shanghai with all...
