    Personally I hardly have printed photos. If I am ever asked to send photos I will just burn enough soft copies onto a blank disk (CD or DVD) and send to AVO. I am sure AVO knows well enough that we live in a digital world or e-world if you like. No matter how heavy the files are, a blank CD...

    Someone at AVO has been consistently making this mistake. The form they're actually referring to is Schedule A: Background/Declaration IMM 5669E. IMM 0008 is the generic application form. Check on the CIC site again. They're human after all.

    I wonder what business Immigration has with birth certificate if you want to travel? Is it not the same Immigration who issued the child an International passport after demanding a copy of the NPC birth certificate? Is the NPC officer saying that the child's birth certificate will be demanded...

    Maxidoo is the MI6 agent who escaped Express Entry by the skin of his teeth last year (his application landed at CIO on December 31, 2014). He is awaiting PER now. Bros Maxidoo, please disclaim these "congratulations" o! ... so that your real ones can come in due course. ;D

    1. When the PR visa is issued, it comes with an expiration date - which is about 8 to 12 months from issuance (people have been given varying dates). It is advisable not to wait till the expiration is very close before you travel or plan your trip - in order to avoid unforeseen circumstances...

    You can actually renew your passports long before expiration. Immigration Service will stamp CANCELLED on all the unused pages of the old one thereby invalidating it ... one cannot have two LIVE passports. If you do this you should then update AVO using Case Specific Enquiry attaching data pages...

    You seem to have a plan already (which seems quite workable to me). Saskatchewan (the province) has a low population and Saskatoon is the Toronto of that province. You may be surprised that you'll do just fine there. :D Anyway, when you change provinces, you need to get health cover afresh in...

    My guess is that you did the National Population Commission birth registration many years after your kids were born ... probably the reason why AVO asked to see the hospital birth certificates. Maybe to check if you actually registered the same humans that were born by you. :D Mz Johnson I hail o!

    I bet it is because they asked for updated POF. If they're ok with your updated POF and medical they'll ask for your passports next and ask for the payment of RPRF/Landing Fee then.

    You can renew as early as six months before expiration ... or even earlier as I was informed at Immigration office. The only thing is that they will have to invalidate the older one by stamping. They'll also have to retrieve it, but if you have a good insider you can keep your invalidated...

    For BBM or Whatsapp group, send a personal message to Pipis Husband. AVO requires that you send passports which have at least 6 months validity, so when you renew just update them using a Case Specific Enquiry attaching the data page of the old and new passports...

    I have a friend who is currently in Canada. His wife was pregnant when they went for medical exams. They didn't inform AVO. The medical exam results usually say so anyway. When the time to travel drew near, they went to the hospital to get a doctor's note certifying the wife fit to fly (since...
