thanks - so how about if she gives birth in the philippines? do we have to engage the PR process again for the baby?

hi all - my wife's PR Visa is approved. she is 4 months pregnant currently. two questions: 1) OHIP coverage takes 3 months to kick in. we plan to fly to canada march 10 and 3 months from that date takes us to due date; any way to fast -track OHIP coverage for when she lands? 2) Another option...

ok this is what i suspected. we considered having the baby in phils but as per the visa, she needs to be in Canada by April 13.

unfortunately based on what i have researched she would not be covered by Blue Cross as her pregnancy would be defined as a pre-existing condition (same with other insurance carriers) does anyone know of any way to avoid the 3 month waiting period or ensure she is covered medially while pregnant?

Hi and thank you! OHIP is the Ontario Health Insurance Plan. Normally when an immigrant arrives, they must be in Ontario for three months before health coverage starts. My worry is that by the time she arrives, she will be six months pregnant and we will be in a race against time to get her...

hi everyone good news we received our visa today. one challenge though as my wife is pregnant and my understanding in ontario she must wait 3 monhts upon landing for OHIP. any ways around this?

Hi everyone - we just checked ECAS and saw this: We started processing xxxxxxx's application on August 18, 2010. Medical results have been received. A decision has been made on xxxxxx's s application. The office will contact LILIA ANNABEL TAN WEE concerning this decision. Please tell me...

hi anyone - any advice please? also if my wife has an older passport (non machine readable), any thoughts on how much longer that will add to the overall timeline?

hi everyone, i am really hoping someone can help or provide advice. I was approved to sponsor my wife on 8/9/10. In ECAS it shows that they started processing my wifes application on 8/16/10. Up until now she has not received an AOR or PPR. Should we just go to the Visa office in Manila...

i will be travelling back to the Philippines for work next week - should i maybe accompany my wife to the Visa office and just drop ger passsport off even though we have not been formally asked for it?

i see that some people were asked to submit their passport just two weeks after their file was transferred to the visa office following sponsorship approval - i was approved as a sponsor in early August but no one has yet reached out to my wife for her passport (3 months have now passed and...

my wife has not even been asked to send in her passport yet :(

thanks :) so did your husband drop off his passport because he was requested to? we have not received any requerst for her to drop off her passport, the only contact we have had was they called her in late Sept to say they were going to mail back some of our records of correspondance (emails...

I'm also getting more nervous - our application has shown "in_Progress" for PR since August 6th - I have already been approved as sponsor but have seen people who submitted in Sept and even Oct in the AOR/PPR phase ... should I be requesting CAIPS notes or holding on a little longer?

hi all - so still showing 'In-Progress" since early August - and now a new wrinkle, my wife is pregnant (i was in the Philippines for work two months ago) :) so my question is, is there a way to contact the visa office to make them aware of this in the hopes to fast track her application? the...
