Interviews are rare for Sydney, especially for Australian passport holders. With you being in Canada, IF they call for an interview there is a good chance they would do it over the phone anyway. As others have said, Sydney is powering through applications at the moment and there's a very good...

This can be within a few weeks or you might not get one at all. A lot of people never get an AOR but this is nothing to worry about. If you tracked the delivery of your application then you will know on what date they received it. It's not uncommon not to know anything is happening until...

You've been luckier than us then ;) We've had three calls with MICC and each one has been a nightmare - and this is for the sponsor in QC that is francophone. One thing they were very good at was in calling us back with information. I don't recommend calling them unless its absolutely necessary.

I expect it is normal. I got the same - just a request for me to confirm via email that the passport is still the same one being used for travel, and Appendix B to be completed and sent back. I suspect that this happens to holders of Australian and New Zealand passports. They shouldn't need to...

The sponsorship guide and the country-specific guide for your wife tell you everything you need to include. If the guide says to send copies, you send copies. if it says to send originals then that is what you must send. Every country is different. Follow the checklists and you can't go wrong...

They are currently taking 25 working days although some people get their decision slightly faster. Watch for the fees to hit your credit card. Once MICC has charged your card you can expect to get a decision within two-three weeks. If it gets past 20 working days you, or your spouse, can call...

This is correct. Once bankruptcy has been accepted, the only assets he will have are the ones the Official Receiver allows him to keep. Fortunately, the UK doesn't stop people from leaving the country (unlike many other countries where you cannot leave without permission from the OR). The OR...

Declaring bankruptcy just prior to leaving the country isn't a good idea. Think very carefully before you take such a serious step as there are considerable consequences. For a start, while bankruptcy could clear most of your debt it doesn't necessarily clear them all. If any of those debts are...

This is the first challenge to get your head around ;) Everything included in the sponsorship pack is for the sponsor to complete - you are the sponsor. IMM 3999 is "Sponsorship of a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child living outside Canada" - you are doing the...

Yay! Good news (I know that excitement ;) ) If you are lucky they might update ecas to "in process" sometime LOL

Email is the only way and there isn't anything you can do to speed things up. If your application has taken longer than the processing times that are posted on CIC's website you can email and ask for information. If the application is still within the normal processing times then all you can do...

Yes, be honest, even if it was just temp work. Make sure you don't leave any gaps in your personal history.

One thing that might help to keep your spirits up - it looks like Sydney doesn't just put applications aside when they wait for more information. I had delays, as you know, on the Quebec side and since they say that the CSQ must be received before the application is processed (for those of us...

Thank you, I really hope so :-) That's hard and I really feel for you. Seeing people getting through the process really quickly while we muck around with bureaucracy is tough. I know how I was feeling until the PPR came through. Hopefully, your situation will be sorted quickly.

Like others have said, she must stop work as soon as her working holiday visa expires. These visas have a finite date and cannot be extended. If, however, she is from a country that allows applications for a second WH visa and she is within the age limits, she could apply for another one - this...

I guess you know that you are posting these questions, many times over, in the wrong forum since you are posting the exact same questions in the international students forum. The international students forum is the only one where you will find people going through the same kind of application...

You simply follow your country guide. People here can give their opinions but unless we applied in the same country as you then we are all only guessing. Some countries require police certificates to be sent with the application and if they are not then the application MAY be returned as...

This forum is for family class applications. You should ask your question in the forum for student applications here http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/international-students-b2.0/

That ecas is a bit of a joke really. We got all the way through sponsorship approval, file transfer and the Quebec application before ecas even said my application was in process. BUT, for your question - YES! I've received PPR and will be posting Appendix B away first thing in the morning...

I think what you wrote there is the important part. His application is in process, you wrote saying he needed his passport back, they sent it back. I don't think it means anything except that they responded to your concerns that they had held the passport for too long. When the decision is made...
