Yeah Ario, you're totaly right. We shouldn't put our lives on hold. We have a lot of things to enjoy and to explore on our limited space. Don't forget though that not all of us are that free to live life to the full at the present (please don't ask for more as I am talking behind the wall). So...

Hi Vancouverite, unfortunately, you can't save data typed into that kind of form. Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records. It's not about your pdf, but it's a convention thing. Thanks

Noted. My pleasure

Hi Ario, I had my daily dose of good laugh while reading your reply. I really need endurance as the waiting is taking a painful direction. The worse is when you can't do more (projects) where I am living now expecting to leave to Canada very soon. Everything are put on hold. What a life? Then...

Hi Abdi, I'm glad to hear that you're as well on the waiting list. My boat!!! At least we can share our frustrations, our sorrows and our waiting experiences. Well, before the Visa Office called you for an interview, your application must be approved then an Immigration officer will schedule an...

Hi Ario, thanks for making this even more clearer. I guess I shouldn't be wondering about these loans, help or gifts for my travel expenses rather than cooling down my heart (with water) to learn to how to be patient and wait until Pretoria will call. I know this waiting time can be long and...

Hi Afimiko, this is a complex case and should be dealt with precautious. As far as I have read through the CIC instructions, the medical result last for a year and expire after that period. More chance that they can request for another test be done. For your working situation, I don’t know much...

Hello Afimiko, your sisters were so lucky and got a "gift" from IOM. I have read on the CIC website and it is clear that the refugees can get a loan from the Canadian government for their medical tests or a loan from IOM to cover their flights tickets. This will be reimbursed once they are...

Thank you Afimiko and Ario for your good experience. The loan is not a problem and can't be as it will help us to get to where we really want to be. And I hope the repayment terms must take in consideration the time to find a suitable job whenever/whatever the time it can take? and the amount on...

Hi Ahmed, Hope I did understand your question about the visa office in Egypt. Canadian visa office Cairo, Egypt Responsible for immigrant applications from: Egypt, Sudan, and Palestinians resident in Gaza Responsible for visitor applications from: Egypt, Sudan, and Palestinians resident in...

Hi Ario, thank you for sharing these with us. It keeps our blood pressure at normal level, waiting until the medical test will be done. In the same time we hope Pretoria will not forget about our files. Thank you guys

Many thanks Ario, Once again I realise that the light is/will be and the end of the tunnel. Our experiences of waiting is the true meaning of The Audacity of Hope! Question: What will follow if by any chance the PR is granted? In a case of a sponsored refugee with no passport, not enough money...

Thanks a lot Afimiko. It's good to hear those kind of assurance. I just wonder if they really read their emails? Why don't they reply? We can't ask more than that!!! I hope we have to hang on there until "our time" arrive... Is that true that Nairobi visa office works much quicker than...

Hi PMM and Abdi2525, Thanks for sharing your experience with us. It helps somehow to keep the hope alive. 42 months for 80% of applicants? Ours is almost at the estimated time frame. Our application was received in Pretoria in November 2007, tow years later we got the interview. Now almost 40...
