    No Option C Printout--Advice?

    Very simple, attach a separate sheet referencing the corresponding Checklist item (#17 on the sponsor's check list) and explaining what you have mentioned here in your post, i.e. that you've been living eight consecutive years in Japan, that you have not filed your income taxes in Canada for...

    processing time mississauga

    The office at Mississauga doesn't usually send acknowledgment of receipt so you don't normally hear from them until sponsorship approval. Some applications may take longer to be assessed for the first stage (sponsor assessment). If you included your email address in your application form, make...

    I am REALLY confused about the medical form IMM1017 - How and When?

    zardoz, happy to read that your medical form situation got straightened out, but that doesn't speak well for the medical examiner's efficiency. Anyways, for the other poster who is considering using that examiner's services, he'll be well advised to look for an alternate physician if one exists...

    help:Medical Request Letter/Acknowledgement Letter from Canadian High Commission

    what do you mean "they're asking you to bring..."? who are "they"? Please be more specific about your case, apparently your file is going through the Islamabad Visa Office, is this correct? Have they called you for an interview? You state that you haven't submitted your forms, so does that mean...

    Which Class of visa apply in my case

    I suggest to complete the immigration assessment form on this site in order to find out your options, but as Scylla already said, you do NOT qualify for sponsorship under the Family class, unless of course that your spouse holds Canadian citizenship or Permanent Resident status. Here's the...

    I am REALLY confused about the medical form IMM1017 - How and When?

    Same answer as given to the OP: You do NOT need a letter or form previously filled to take your medical for Family Class examinations, unless: 1- The visa Office handling your file follows a different procedure for medical examinations. You may get more help if you specify which VO you're going...

    Mexico

    yup, that's encouraging, alright! Mind you mc's case is probably very different than everybody else (by definition!). Still though, if your case is straightforward enough (no deportation/removal, immigration history, divorce, etc.) your file has a great chance of getting processed very fast, I...

    Lena, my wife is also from El Salvador & I am the canadian sponsor. My wife file was received in June 2012, but her medicals expired and she got new ones done in August. I was approved as sponsor in September, from then the file was transferred to Mexico around October 15. The application went...

    Form IMM1344E - Relationship to principal applicant

    No, it's the other way around. if the person being sponsored is the parent of the sponsor, then it follows logically that the sponsor is the Child of the principal applicant, so "Child" should be the correct response.

    Mexico

    everybody should chill! this is the mexico thread but because the Mexico VO handles all Central America apps then ppl should be sensitive to that and avoid generalizations. Yes, every country has specific instructions so the applicant should become familiar with the instructions applicable to...

    Medical Exam

    Read the Guides and if you want further help, specify which country/Visa Office you're applying to. Medical exams for Family Class applications are done up-front, meaning they need to be done BEFORE you submit your application, so your medical examiner will provide you a copy of the record as...

    Does my U.S. citizenship matter or make difference?

    Since you are the sponsor you are not required to produce police checks, but your wife, the applicant needs to. She'll have to provide FBI checks and go through a full medical examination. You will be asked to submit proof of your Canadian citizenship, as well as proof of your relationship to...

    I sure hope so, Dazz. Our file went "In Process" on January 17 and to this day we haven't received any other news. Following another thread i'm hoping that in two-months time we'll receive some news, don't ask me how I know that, it's just a hunch. So we'll continue patiently waiting...

    thanks canadiangirl78. I realize that "In Process" can mean anything happening during normal application assessment at the VO, so I think I'm still in for a long ride, still being early on in the process. There's this <a...

    Can anybody remind me what "In Process" on E-Cas is all about? Our file went to that status in January and it´s the first time since AOR back in October that I´ve seen anything changed there. Wonder what the timeframe until PPR should be... Your thoughts.

    I am REALLY confused about the medical form IMM1017 - How and When?

    update here: looking at the panel physician's manual, it says this on page 7: "UFM examinations are performed when clients report to a panel physician for their IME before a visa application has been submitted to CIC. Clients who undergo UFMs will not have a Medical Report (IMM 1017) issued by...
