    Apparently that's the difference between you and me, bonitanita: I am NOT taking it personally. Though I felt that you folks are saturating the bandwidth with useless commentary instead of being supportive to each other even though you demand the same from others. And this is not about...

    No intention to offend you Steph C. Let's just keep waiting patiently. If you care about my story, you'd realize that I've been put through a lot of hell by CIC in the recent past, yet that doesn't entitle me to trash other people, instead I've found a lot of support and helpful information on...

    You people should start being so caustic, your comments are toxic and that's not what this forum is about. This resource is meant to be useful for sharing information, tips, advice and support, yet you insist in wasting your energy and time in negativism and infantile retorts. Obviously you...

    Sponsor "living" as a tourist abroad - which address to put?

    I believe you must reside in Canada while your sponsorship application is undergoing so you need to enter your Canadian address in all the sponsor's forms. The other alternative is that you declare you are living exclusively outside of Canada, then you would enter your Nicaraguan address. In...

    No updates on my side except e-CAS showing "Application Received" for both sponsor and applicant. I don't think we're up for any updates yet, will be looking into an end of August or early September communication. Cheers.

    How much did the PR process cost in total for you (if you don't mind me asking)?

    Funny, yet so true! ;) If you take into account other miscellaneous such as, photocopies, translations (I guess it won't apply to you if all your paperwork is in English), travel back and forth to get pictures, police checks, birth certificates, bank account receipts, etc, etc... you're easy...

    News Release - more changes to immigration system

    I hope that they'd be able to at least reduce their current backlog in all categories so they can allocate those resources to the other streams, like the Family Class.

    CIC insider/representative on this forum

    It certainly would be a great resource to have but I don't expect a government agency to officially create a presence in a public forum owned and controlled by a private entity. Still, there are consultants and lawyers who've been previously employed at CIC who could definitely offer precious...

    Cannot download IMM008

    if you have the PDF file on your computer you can compress it using a tool like WinRAR or WinZip, then email it to your husband. The file size once compressed should be no larger than 750 kB. good luck.

    Interesting numbers... but is this official data? where did you get the data to build this chart from?

    Can anyone please -- good deed for the day -- post the PDF of the new IMM 1344?

    it's probably an Internet browser issue. You can try to, instead of normal-clicking on the link, do a right-click on the link, the options menu will display, select "Save link as...", then select a location in your hard drive to save the file to, then click "Save", the file should be saved in a...

CPC-M never notified us that they had sent the package back until around December but only to remind us...
