Thanks for responding regarding the work permit. We hoped we wouldn't have to send it. So basically we can courier to them but they will send it back using regular mail?

Thanks, Suin. It says: For addresses in Canada : Standard Procedure: The Consulate will return documents to addresses in Canada via U.S. Postal Service First Class Mail (Regular Mail). Courier Service: Unless it is prepaid from a corporate account, we will not return your documents using ANY...

I've been trying to find more information about how to send and receive back a passport to NYC. We are sending it from Canada. From what I understand, because i do not have a corporate account with a courier, they will send the passport back to me by regular mail. I know if I was sending it to...

Can anyone advise how they sent their passport from Canada to the NYC consulate? I am not clear on the instructions regarding couriers.

Hi robertbola, Seeing how your application went through NYC, I thought I'd ask how you sent in the passport? We will be sending it from Canada to NYC.

Thanks, PMM. For the mailing instructions, these seem to apply for Buffalo. If we are going through the NYC office, is it the same? For example, do these instructions apply: "Be sure to purchase the Xpresspost - Canada (not Xpresspost - USA) envelope. Taking advantage of our proximity to the...

We have now received a letter from New York City requesting my husband's passport. FINALLY!!! A few questions: 1. What happens next? Once they have the passport do they do any further checks, etc? Or can we expect them to just issue the visa and send back the passport? 2. After getting the...

Hi ekristensen! Yes we did do the medical before sending anything in, so sent the medical form with the whole application. So what happened was I was approved to sponsor, then they sent the file to Buffalo. From there it was sent to NYC, but the status never mentioned medicals. Finally Monday I...

Thanks for your input. At least it means something has happend in the last 2 months since we had another update! :)

I finally have the notice that medicals were received. "We started processing application on July 13, 2009. We transferred your application to the New York office on July 21, 2009. The New York office may contact you. Medical results have been received." Does that mean they may be asking...

I finally have the notice that medicals were received. "We started processing application on July 13, 2009. We transferred your application to the New York office on July 21, 2009. The New York office may contact you. Medical results have been received."

I understand that the sponsor would be responsible for paying back anything collected by the sponsored person. What about the sponsor themselves. I am applying to sponsor my husband. We plan to have children within the next 3 years, so I expect I would collect EI (employment insurance). What...

I'm glad to hear it's not necessarily unusual it doesn't say medical were received yet. No updates in about 2 months now!

When it said Decision Made for mine, I called CIC to ask them what the decision was. 1 888 242‑2100

Wow that was fast! Mine is the following: -Application received May 26th, 2009 -Sponsorship approved June 24th, 2009 -Started processing in Buffalo July 13th, 2009 -Transferred to NYC July 21st, 2009 I've heard nothing else since then.

Yes, I have looked at In Process. It says: We started processing X's application on July 13, 2009. We transferred X's application to the New York office on July 21, 2009. The New York office may contact X. Medicals were not mentioned, however.

So far still no update. Not good to hear it doesn't sounds like NYC updates ecas much. Does anyone have experience with NYC where ECAS was updated?

Hi KevinsJane, I believe we were at similar stages with our sponsorship being approved and then the application being transferred to NYC for expediting. Have you any updates since then? Mine was transferred to NYC on July 21st but no update since then. No word about medicals, either. thanks...

My application has been transferred from Buffalo to NY to expedite. Does anyone have experience with this office? How are the processing times for PR applications?

I now got a letter it was expedited as well. I'll be curious to see what other communications you receive next, as I seem to be a few weeks behind you.
