It seems that they want an FBI form and one from every state you have lived in since your 18th birthday.

Good advice, thanks for the list...but in our case we have no correspondence to offer them for review as my sponsor lives with me (we met in the same city and dated regularly for about two years, normal phone calls, no emails because what would be the point)...hopefully the fact that we live...

Doesn't it say on the instructions? I remember reading something like "mail it to your sponsor so that your sponsor can mail everything together to the processing centre..." or something to that tune. My sponsor lives with me so we just mailed it all together anyway...

you would think it would take twice as long because double the trouble, so to speak, more stuff for them to go through as they gather intel on you.

Here's another question: does dual citizenship on the part of the sponsored party represent any sort of hindrance to the application process? If someone is applying from a country where he or she is currently based but is also a citizen of the US, for example? More junk for them to check? Would...

I'm no authority but I assume that ND has a huge backlog. I am applying from an office that has lately been known for its quick processing, luckily. I would give it some more time before you start worrying for real.

no, I said I sent a few photos, and wrote "for more photos see the following link: www.xxx.xxx.com" I have about 800 photos of my wife and I, so what, they want to look at all 800?

so should I haul arse to the local Canadian visa office which will be processing my case and hand over a stack of photos just to be safe? might be a good idea...and here I thought I was being smart and economical:( on the other hand, if we already got a reply from Mississaugua stating that the...

Well they never said do not send links, they just said what NOT to send as documentation (ie video casettes, etc). Go figure.

I did add a few hard copy photos just to be safe, though. oNE of us at the wedding ceremony, one of us on vacation together, etc...

That's just what I meant...well, they didn't say NOT to provide a link, they just said provide photos. I can always print as many as they want and haul them over to the embassy if they really want hard copy, but what with the Canadian government always saying how concerned they are about the...

Anyone?

Has anyone here provided proof of marriage by listing website links (picassa, flickr, etc) to photos of you marriage? Thought this was a good idea, convenient for the people processing your application and less hassle for the applicant what with developing and sending hard copy photos. In the...

the background check seems to pertain to police certificates "guaranteeing" that you have never been convicted of a crime within their jurisdiction. They are certificates that show you have a clean record with the police (never arrested, etc). And I think you need one for every place you have...

I am applying through the Warsaw office. As for photos of wedding, etc, I provided www links with plenty of photos. Hope they like them!

same here..I don't remember anything having to be in caps....

well, we are legit so there should be nothing to "convince them" of:)

So what happens after your sponsor gets a letter saying from the processing centre saying that your sponsorship application is approved? (considering you both live overseas, outside Canada?) What is the timeline? Interview at the embassy?

Hello, CIC's online system shows that our application (wife sponsoring husband) was received in early Oct, then reviewed on Oct 28th which is the exact day a decision was made and the response mailed (which we have yet to recieve). CIC will not show noline what that decision actually is. Is the...

Can anyone help with the following question?? Background: many many years ago, while an irresponsible college student I eloped with a Canadian girl while vacationing in her home town in Canada (the culmination of a grueling long-distance relationship borne of a summer spent backpacking around...
