    1 and 2. Don't forget to call to confirm, and that way you can also ask all the questions you have. Considering you got your blue book in July, I'm inclined to believe this is a scheduling call and not your hearing, afaik they call you to let you know how the hearing or ADR works before they...

    I'm not sure what you mean, if you mean how long it takes until you get a hearing after you get your blue book? Anywhere from five months to over a year. They will always tell you what happens next, so at some point you will receive a letter letting you know that they will be phoning you to...

    That's a standard message, they let everyone know that any evidence should be sent at least 20 days before the hearing date, you can also find that in your IAD information sheet that they mailed to you when they acknowledged your appeal. Start gathering any evidence you have, you will need it...

    From what I noticed from calling them, they don't ask where you are, they just ask how are you related to the person appealing, but since your wife is appealing, you may want to have her call, I don't know how much information they will disclose to you since you are not the appellant, I know it...

    Passport to CPC Ottawa - May 2017

    I mailed my passport on the 5th of September and they received it on the 7th, the problem is I didn't write my tracking numbers down, I'm just so used to getting them on the receipt (even for prepaid envelopes) and then by the time I sealed the envelope the cashier figured that I "can't get the...

    You can't choose ADR, the IAD will look at your file and they will decide whether or not your situation is fit for ADR, they decide that when they believe it can be solved in under an hour, if they think it will take more time, they'll pick a full hearing. You can't check your appeal process...

    All I got was an e-mail, I never linked my application (tried that forum post and it never worked).

    That is so not fair! But hey, you might get PPR tonight. I got mine at a really odd time, it was a Saturday at 8PM (promise you they don't work those hours) so perhaps it was an automatic e-mail based on bring forward dates?!

    You don't need a lawyer, I was told the average person actually does it all on their own, not everybody can afford a lawyer and a lawyer is not a guarantee your appeal will get allowed, they just have more experience. Just start collecting everything you can to prove your relationship is...

    Unfortunately there's no way to make it faster, from what I've seen on this forum, the average wait time is pretty much a year, @gehtrew did get their appeal allowed incredibly fast, but that's not the norm. I waited basically a year from filing for the appeal to having it allowed. But I suppose...

    Hey! Congratulations! Your wait is finally over! How long did you have to wait from sending your passport to getting it back?

    I wouldn't get too scared, it seems they add that to most letters, they do that so people don't think they are absolutely 100% getting their visa, because something could change and they could get denied, but that usually only happens if there's a change in the person's situation (e.g. convicted...

    Hey Mary, does the automated service only give you the status of your application or can you get any other info?

    If you are talking about all the documents you have sent to CIC before your appeal and that would be in your blue book, no, they don't send you a copy of your file if you are no longer appealing.

    I always felt super bad for bothering MPs with questions but I guess that's their job (or least whoever works in their immigration department). I might even ask if they can contact CPC-O to get my tracking numbers, I mean, all they have to do is open the envelope :(.

    Oh, I know that they never reply to e-mail enquiries from applicants but not replying to MP is news to me, maybe they'd have replied if the MP had phoned or something. Anyway, when you receive a passport request it means they are ready to process your visa, the only reason they'd conduct any...

    Just hang in there, it gets better. I know it seems like a nightmare - and it is tbh - but in no time you'll be with your partner and all of this will be in the past.

    That is so unfortunate, I'm actually afraid of that happening to me. You should contact your local MP like Mary said, in a case like this, it might actually make a difference. I think you are supposed to get your passport in within ten days from the day the visa office receives it, 106 days is a...

    They'll send you a "Notice to appear" letter containing the date and time they'll be phoning you. Could take a few months.
