Hey Bea07, You might want to check out the November thread and add your info to the November spreadsheet! It's nice to watch the progress of other applicants applying around the same time as you! :) K November thread...

dima20d, you should check out the November applicant page and add you info to the spreadsheet! I'm sure other November applicants would love to see your progress and may have similar lines on ecas and MyCIC! What's your visa office? November thread...

Instead of buying a round trip flight you can buy a separate one way ticket back to South Africa - you get more money back when you cancel a flight vs. not taking the second half of a round trip ticket.

I included a letter from my boss stating that she knew of my intention to return to Canada and that my employment with her would terminate when my husband received his PR. I also had letters from family and friends offering a place to stay/financial help/use of their car/etc. when we arrive; a...

Maybe the officer is just slow to update the system and notify you! Try to stay positive!

Thank you so much! Having the exact right search words really makes a difference with the CIC search tool! I know, on the application, I'll have to change my address to our Canadian one when we arrive. Will my husband (primary applicant) have to do anything regarding the application? Or does he...

I hate to start a new topic but I can't find any recent posts on this topic and nothing helpful on cic.gc.ca (no surprise there). My husband is waiting for his PR outland, but we need to return to Canada in a few months for a family event. We expect to have COPR or at least PPR by then, but...

I've heard of people being in Canada when they receive ppr and they ended up sending their passport to Ottawa instead of their VO. But I don't know any details about that.

I believe Brazilians who had a visa for Canada in the previous 5 years (not sure about this number) or are currently holding a valid visa for the U.S. are eligible for eta. My husband is thinking of traveling to Canada with an eta as he has a valid american visa and also had a Canadian visa...

Hey Malikagui! I was having computer problems, but I did receive your message. I just replied now, but I can't see my reply in my outbox; let me know if you received it! :)

Check out this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/november-2016-outland-spousal-applicants-t459598.0.html There is a spreadsheet that you can put your information in. It's good to watch the timelines of other November applicants and to see if they're...

You got your SA just two days before us! Are you using the November thread too? ** 2016 members ** 1. nsjk16 - SA Mar/15 - PPR Oct/17 2. Jaytheo40 - SA Mar/31 - PPR Sep/27 3. Canadianbrazil - SA Apr/15 - PPR Oct/17 4. minimouse - SA Apr/16 - PPR Sep/15 5...

If you haven't received your SA letter yet, but it says decision made, don't stress! It doesn't mean refused! They seem to send out the SAs in batches and its possible that yours is coming out with the next batch!

Looks fairly standard. Have you received your SA letter yet? If not, I'd expect it soon since your sponsor side changed to DM. What's your VO? You should enter your info into your profile now that you're over 10 posts. Are you a November applicant? Have you added your info to the spreadsheet...

It could be that, and maybe many people are taking holidays this month too. I'm trying to be patient. We've really just begun the waiting period, but I can't help but check mycic and ecas at least once a day! lol

Your example is a little confusing... Granger would be Hermione's maiden name; Jean would be her middle name. Her last name would be Granger or Weasley or Granger-Weasley (depending on if/how she changed her name when she got married. Given names: Hermione Jean, Last Name: Granger I included my...

I can't say how CIC will view an eloped marriage - on it's own I can't imagine it being a problem but depending on the other circumstances it could be. If you do elope, on you application you should definitely explain your reasons for doing so and your plans for a traditional wedding in the...

bump. I'd put "other - implied...", from start of visa to present. But I'm really just guessing... Does anyone have a more educated suggestion? Also, will there still be inland/outland? I understood with the new changes that there would be one process for both; one new set of forms (released...

We were able to remember the events where my husband met some of my friends and family and went through old calendars and phone messages to find the exact dates. It helps to have a software on your computer to download and search through old texts if you're going to try this option; I used...

I don't believe a courthouse marriage alone looks fishy, I think it also depends on the surrounding circumstances. We included a written explanation of why we didn't have an engagement party, why there was no traditional wedding ceremony even though I'm religious, why most of my family wasn't at...
