    Denial of extension - Question

    I have a similar situation. I asked my question here http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/applying-for-extension-what-address-t33956.0.html;msg214099#msg214099 If you apply for a visa extension, I understand that once it is received you have "implied status" until a...

    Thats what happens when I don't pay attention :) What I wonder is are they actually the number of days taken before they even look at the application, and are the failed applications turned around faster?

    Applying for extension - what address

    I have documents to attach, will the online system let me do that? All my forms and documents are together; I intended to pay online, print the receipt and then ship the whole lot to Vegreville by courier. Is processing faster with an online submission?

    At the end of December the visa extension processing time was at something like 88 days, 79 at present.

    Applying for extension - what address

    No, but I do need an extension, actually I think we could be married before the processing of the extension application starts (during implied status) in fact it's very likely we would be married before a decision had be made by CIC. Processing at the moment looks like 79 days As I currently...

    Applying for extension - what address

    Just so people understand what I am doing: I am a Brit (visa exempt) in Canada, with a six month visitor record. I am applying for a visa extension so my Canadian fiancée and I have enough time to get married in Canada. Once married we will submit my PR application. Unlike many people here, who...

    Applying for extension - what address

    When applying for a visa extension you need to send the forms and supporting documents to Vegreville. But, the document check list and the instructions (for extending a visa) show slightly different addresses. While I believe that both addresses are ok to use, can I ask where you sent your...

    This may sound like a dumb question, but...

    HSBC opened an account for a visitor, all they wanted was a copy of the passport (main page) and an address. Did not even have to deposit a cent.

    Extended Stay for visitor - how likely?

    Crazy questions: Why not state that you want to get married? Can anyone confirm that their visa extension was refused or approved because they wanted to get married? If you apply for a visa extension, the processing time is currently at 79 days - even if you were refused, you should be able...

    am I pushing my luck?

    I have always been told "There is never a guarantee that you will get a visa, or visa extension", I arrange my life with that in mind. I have no idea what you mean by this, but I would be very careful about that "arrangement", we all know that unless you have authorization to work, you should...

    New Online Service CIC extention to temporary residence

    Hands up, has anyone used the online service yet? Siouxie, I know it is only an assessment tool, but it doesn't inspire confidence if it gets the basics wrong.

    When do we have to extend his TRV?

    I assume a recent paystub is all that would be required to prove earnings, or would they need more proof?

    New Online Service CIC extention to temporary residence

    Can someone check the visitor assessment tool - I think it is not working correctly. I tried "in Canada", "visitor", "extend my stay in Canada as a visitor", "A visitor record". When you get to "Find the expiration date appearing on your visitor record" If you choose "after todays date" it...

    DO I APPLY AS LIVING INSIDE OR OUTSIDE CANADA?

    You actually have no "right" to leave and enter, you are assessed by immigration any time that you enter. The POE officer can turn you away if they want to. There are many things that need to be in place when you enter - money, enough for the visit - a good reason to visit - and you need to show...

    DO I APPLY AS LIVING INSIDE OR OUTSIDE CANADA?

    You can apply "outland" which is faster than "inland" - It does not matter where you actually are. You might want to turn off CAPS lock :)
