Re: uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Marianna they were asking me to submit a copy of my son's long form birth cert too. But hubby hasn't received any email yet. What kind of email did you get from CIC? I received 2, one is a request for medical sans the other one says something like "in order to...

Guys! Need help, CIC received my app on March 8, 2013. I received an email from CIC today asking me to do my medicals. But my hubby (sponsor) haven't received AIP. What does this mean?

DUI is considered a criminal offense, if the sponsor has a DUI history (2012), will this affect his eligibility to sponsor?

Hi cpaet10! I'm filipino too. For your question? Its a definite YES. You do need a Canadian visa because you're not a permanent resident yet. I was going to apply for one (still awaiting AIP and OWP, I'm currently on a visitor status) cause I wanted to fly home but in my case as a visitor, I...

Guys! How do I request for GCMS note? And what does it stand for?

Hello guys! I need some advice.. I would really love to fly home, where I'm from is not a visa exempt country but CIC approved my extension to stay on a visitor permit. We submitted our application in March this year together with my app of an OWP. I do understand that it is not advisable and...

Well 3 ways.. Be a student, apply as a visitor or find a new employer who will be willing to process a foreign worker. Whatever path your friend takes, he has to prove a lot of things to CIC based from which category he chooses. The best of luck! :)

Just an update guys: I'm a March 2013 applicant for spousal sponsorship + OWP. Anyway haven't heard anything about it of course. But anyhow my work permit expired in November 30th of this year, so first week of September, I extended my stay as a visitor and exactly 87 days later (cause I did...

I'm not from a visa exempt country, I changed my status from a work permit to extending my stay here in Canada as a visitor though I'm on implied status. So once CIC grant me my visitor visa, can I leave canada and fly home with my hubby and our son, you think? Or we can even wait until I get my...

I renewed my visitor visa for one reason only.. And that's for provincial healthcare coverage. Some said in NS you can avail it on implied status but not in most provinces. I guess that's what most of us are concerned about. :)

Heya! Here's more good news.. My friend who is in the same boat as us submitted their application on November 13, 2012 and received their AIP plus a request for medical today thru email! So which means they're working on applications beyond November 4!!! :)

Hi! When did you submit your application? And did you get an email too of an AOR before?

Shoot! I never thought about including the receipt of my PR app and the AOR along with my visitor extension application... :'( I also checked others and wrote down awaiting permanent residency approval. I thought they can verify that using my UCI number. Now I feel like sending them a copy of...

Either way works.. As long as you can prove that you are here in Alberta with immigration documents. Definitely yes for a visitor, and as for the student/work permit, it has to be under Alberta to qualify for AH. :)

Come on people, loosen up. I'm sure all applicants are excited that the strike is over. His statement is more of a wishful thinking not a statement of fact. God only knows what's next to happen...

So I was just reading the inland 2012 thread and I'm happy to share to everyone that upon reading the last 5 pages, CIC has processed applicants from November 1, 2012. Some of them even received AIP and DM at the same time :)

Just wondering.. In cases like receiving the AIP and DM at the same time, what happens to stage 2? Do they skip that process? I'm in a wishful thinking that they do since it took them that long to process stage 1, that's 11 months, that should be enough time to verify all information?

Will they mail/email an applicant regarding a submitted application of OWP? I haven't received anything. The only thing we received is the AOR which they sent to my husband via email in March. Should I be worried?

Hi there! You are on implied status wether what came first, the expiration of whatever immigration doc you have or the submission of your PR app with OWP. The only difference now is since you said you're on a tight budget, personally I will and I have submitted an app for a change of status...

@5hr3wd: how long did you wait from submission of your papers to receiving an approval?
