My fiance and I will be going to Canada for approximately a year. She is on a study permit and I will be accompanying her on a multiple entry visitors visa. I would like to avoid buying return tickets if possible as I would like to keep the exact date of our return flexible. Are we going to be...

Got my fiances visa today, mine was not included so am still waiting for mine. They did phone me yesterday and ask another question though and then said that it would be ready soon, so hopefully mine will come early next week. Anyway looks like the waiting has finally paid off so we are very...

Didn't manage to go in to collect today, will have to wait till tomorrow so won't know anything until then.

*Update* My fiance just received an email stating her passport and visa letter are ready for collection. It is not clear whether this includes my passport or not, will have to see when we go to collect tomorrow.

*Update* Okay they phoned my boss as well, and asked basically the same two questions.

They have not contacted my company, they already know to expect any contact though as I have kept them informed on the whole process as it goes along. It is a fairly small company and I am quite important to it so it is easy in this respect. I had to provide a letter of employment as part of the...

*Update* Today the embassy surprised me with a call to my cellphone, they caught me a bit off guard as I am sick at the moment. Anyway they asked two strange questions and then said they will give the answers tot he officer. 1) "Does you company have somebody to replace you?" 2) "How do you...

Yeah I delivered it the day after they asked for it, August 7th. Have not heard anything whatsoever since then. It is now over 8 months since we started the application process, most of which we have spent waiting on them. It is really starting to drain me.

CHC pretoria does not accept phone calls, the only way to contact them is via email, which they ignore 99% of the time, I still have valid queries from march that are unanswered.

Haha I wish, we are waiting once again, the wait seems to be never ending and is really draining me.

Never mind I see some of them do sell without a ticket. I guess I will just go ahead and buy one then.

The south african visa office just sent my fiance the following, out of nowhere. Our medical aid does actually cover us internationally so I am not sure why they are saying this, ignoring that though as I would rather just give them what they want then try cause a fuss I would like to ask the...

There is no guarantee that they will ask for an interview at all.

I don't know if they accept documentation via email or not.

Progress update from my side. They sent an email yesterday telling us that they are "ready to issue your application for a Study Permit" for my fiance. We rushed through to Pretoria to collect it but apparently ready to issue does not mean that we can actually collect it yet, so we will have to...

They told us we would have to do that at the interview.

I understand how you feel as this is a lot like what we went through, it is not nice at all having to wait like this as your whole life is really on hold. If you decide to move the course start date then you should obtain a new acceptance letter with the new course start date and write a letter...

I'm really not sure on that sorry, I have only my single personal experience to go on, so I can only tell you what happened with mine and what I think based on that but it is not really easy to generalize based on one case. They are not very informative/transparent about anything so it is very...

I will let you know as soon as they contact me again(Which might be another 30 days), until then there isn't really much to keep you posted on. I don't think anyone will be able to tell you exactly how long the medical takes(The supposed average from the website seems to be 6 to 8 weeks) but I...

My fiance and I will be looking to rent a house in toronto in the next few months and I have a few questions which I have been unable to answer via research of my own so far so if anyone can clear any of the below up it would be appreciated. 1/ We have two large dogs that we will be bringing...
