Leon, I saw this somewhere on the website and didn't quite understand. If, for example, my medicals will expire in late October, does that mean I will get my PR visa before then, so that I can 'land' before that day in October? What happens if I don't get my visa before then? Do I have to pay...

Salut! I just found this topic....thanks for starting it! My Quebecois husband is my sponsor and I am a US citizen, thus I'm applying outland through Buffalo. We've received federal sponsorship approval and are awaiting the CSQ. (I was told I would receive it within the next two weeks). My...

That's such great news! It seemed like a daunting task..... Best wishes for smooth sailing.

Thanks, all, for your replies and wishes!

Just checked the website today... They changed the date on the application times for processing page to May 4, 2011, but the Buffalo office still says they're taking 11 months. When I look at most of the posts on this site, it seems it's taking less than 11 months. Why do they keep showing 11...

Wow! That's great news! I hope my VO is very nice and reasonable, too! I hope he/she is not plain lazy, though....they might take too long to process my application! ;)

CharlieD10, What a great way to put it! I never thought about the "severing ties" aspect. My Canadian husband is sponsoring me (US citizen). We sent in two legitimate job offers for my husband from family members who own successful businesses and mentioned that he would head up early, before...

Oh dear... I thought I was giving a lot of details about our relationship, but I certainly didn't add a separate letter. Now I'm worried. We did include meeting, first date, moving together, activities & trips, proposing & informal marriage, etc. I also included how we met and how I felt as...

Re: Thank God for this forum My FBI clearance was expired, too, and I didn't realize it until I started reading posts on this site! :o I haven't received my AOR yet either so I'm hoping that the request I just sent for an updated clearance will be back quickly so I can send it in to the...

I read somewhere else on this site that the visa office must wait to receive the CSQ from Quebec before even starting the processing of an application. I guess it sounds right...makes sense, but has anyone else experienced this? Just wondering because I didn't realize that would delay our...

Sparkle, I'm new to the site and just noticed all your work on the spreadsheet! Great job! Can you add me, too, please? My husband is Canadian (Quebecois) and is sponsoring me (US Citizen)...we both live in TX. I can't remember all the headings so I'll just freestyle it: Appl. sent to...

Simdlee, Our ecas Perm Res App Status was updated to "Application Received" a little over a week after the Sponsorship was updated to "Decision Made". But we have not had any activity since then...about 2 weeks or so.

Same here.... Mine reads exactly the same way "application received". However, the links found under the "decision made" section for sponsorship said they had forwarded the application to the visa office and the letter we received in the mail stated specifically that our office was: Buffalo...

No..sorry! I couldn't find another field to enter the Quebec portion in, so I put it under Docs Request. No additional docs were requested; nothing was reported missing. In fact, our initial letter and approval of Sponsorship noted that our application was complete (per the initial review)...

Thanks, Leon. Yes we've definitely shown plans. Is that all that is necessary? We sent in the form showing he intends to reside there with his Sponsorship Appl. and job offers, as well. We just weren't sure if/when he should go up there ahead of me, since we have no advance info on when/if I...

Hi, My husband and I sent the receipt we printed out on-screen (R+ 9-digit number) and it was accepted. It did look the same as the e-mail we received. The receipt was accepted and to date we've not had anyone question payment. Just thought I'd add some support!

Question about husband sponsoring me to live in Quebec... We started our applications from the US where my husband is a permanent resident and I am a citizen. As we completed the applications we noticed wording stating that my husband had to be living in Quebec when I received my PR visa. We...

Hello March Applicants! We're a bit late to join the group, but we're here to share the wait along with everyone else! ;) Our journey thus far has been: Sponsorship Appl & PR Appl arrived in Mississauga - March 15, 2011 We checked e-cas daily for nearly a month....and eventually...
