Thanks PMM and Canadastar for your answers. You have been of great assistance throughout this process. I know I sound like its already over.I felt very excited this morning and couldn't believe my eyes considering the frustrations and long waiting times other members in the forum go through in...

Hi there. This morning I received passport request through my email ;D (cc'ed to wife-sponsor). It basically said (translated from french): " We have reached the final stage of processing your application. In order for us to issue PR visa you have to provide us with the following documents" 1-...

Kuku you are right! I guess it is easier from the US no question, still people get denied even in a situation like mine. Bottom line, each case is different but everyone has to take a chance and try. Luck plays a big part in the decision even when you have all the paperwork. It's funny how...

Hi. My advice to you is to be optimistic. My case in similar to yours in certain aspects. My spouse is Canadian Citizen and we filed for PR in March 2011. While the PR is pending I applied for TRV @Washington DC office on 11/15/11 and got visa the same day. I was discouraged by the post talking...

Thanks SimpleMan. I don't know about getting a new birth certificate but I will ask to family members to look into it. So you mean withdrawing my asylum after receiving my new EAD will not be an issue as long as the EAD remains valid. Let me ask you this worst case scenario question then. 1-...

Thank You for you advice! I sincerely appreciate it.. In the case of me withdrawing my asylum application any idea on how to do it? By the way Miami-Field Office is still holding my original birth certificate. Will they return my original documents when they cancel my claim? Thank You

Thanks PMM and sorry for my late reply. To be honest I was worried about my asylum case still pending. 1- Do you think Canada Immagration can let my wife sponsor me for PR with my "pending refugee status" here in the US? I heard that they will only consider my wife's sponsorship only If i...
