What's ATIP?

I have been out of canada for so long it's hard for me to think about voting but you can bet your ...that I'll become a lot more involved when we are 'allowed' to move back. This is almost criminal for the government to hold people's passports for this long without even a timeline or guarantee...

Thank you everyone for supplying as much information as you have. I'm really pissed now. How the hell would we have ended up in the 'complicated' pile? My husband and I have been married 14 years and have three children (who are duel citizens!) How could that be any simpler?? They questioned...

Anyone getting anything out of Manila??

Thanks everyone for the advice. I emailed Manila and the reply back was that we are currently queued for review. Not sure what that means?? I guess we just keep waiting :D Heather

BTW, what address do you use to ask questions to the embassy? Heather

Hi, Actually we're in Japan so we didn't need to send in my husband's passport, only Appendix A. :( Heather

Anyone else from December still waiting?? We got (and sent in the next day) our PPR two months ago and have not heard anything since. Contacted a MP and they said our call forward day was Aug 31 but still no change in the status. Just about driving me crazy. Heather

Thanks. Actually I'll still be in japan. I'll plan is not to move to canada until the spring but he will have to land before then or his visa will expire. Heather

Anybody know if the sponsor has to travel to canada with the immigrant when they land?

Heh Gumper, Congratulations! Can't help on the personal info stuff either as we only got AppA and the letter saying they weren't convinced I was going back to Canada. But I did want to follow up on that and let you all know what happened in the last few days. On Friday (Thursday Canada time) I...

Thanks GT. I got mine but it also came with a letter saying that they didn't believe that I would return to Canada with my husband. I'm furious and have no idea how to document our intent. Did send in emails between a potential employer and myself and emails between real estate agents and myself...

Hmm, I just went back and looked at mine and it listed Manila. Did you apply as an inland applicant or Outland applicant? Heather Ps. Congratulation by the way.

Thanks. Will keep you informed. Think I will also phone the mp in lethbridge, where we plan to live, tomorrow and see if they can help. It's been so long since I've lived in Canada so I think that is the best thing to do. Heather

Well, I'm going to send in what I've got and go from there. I could probably sick some cousins on those edmontonian mps but thought I might like to experience the process myself after we arrive. What a joke! Took me a few months, or maybe even a few weeks, to get my permanent residency in japan...

Well lucky, I have contacted the school board in Lethbridge really early to find out what paper work we needed to bring and what kind of ESL support my kids will have. Also, one of my sons has Aspergers and I was trying to find out what kind of support we will get once he is in the system. What...

Hi, Yes indeed they did. Paperwork in support of Subsection 130(2) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations which states something along the lines of...I haven't produced sufficient evidence of my desire or plans to return to MY OWN *&%$%& COUNTRY. Sorry, not yelling nor swearing at...

Thanks gumper. He actually has to 'land' in Canada by the one year mark of the medical but is not required to move to Canada right away. He has to reside 2/5 years there to retain the visa. That means we have two years to get it together. However, our plans are to move to Canada in April of...

Ok I'm going to throw up I'm so angry and frustrated. We just got app A but also a letter saying they don't think I'm going to move to Canada. You spend $1500 on all this crap and they don't think you're going to move?? I'm the one that wants to go. But how do I prove this?? We can't sell our...

Hi. We are a dec applicant. But right at the end and our sponsor approval wasn't until end of jan. Again, thanks for letting me know it comes by email. I'll try and watch my husbands email for it. I've already let him know to keep an eye on his junk box.
