    Hi Imran, Packing bags is the gateway of last resort. I will not pack bags without exhausting all the options available. I have left my job in India and now if I have to leave job in Canada and go back to India for just Visa stamping then this whole exercise will defeat the process of looking...

    Hi Hooverback, CIC might not want us to disclose Personal Private Information in the Public Forum ( File Numbers / Legal Names etc.. ) . So I believe instead of a group e-mail, it might be better to send individual e-mails. One e-mail in an Inbox might be easily ignored but so many mails...

    If nothing materializes then that is the gateway of last resort. If CIC is not listening to our concerns then I do not see if there is any other option. After waiting for so many years to reach this mile stone we can't loose this opportunity. Just in case of any Identity issue : We can keep a...

    CIC is quite capable of accessing our data globally . Sri Lanka Visa office asking us to Send our passports to NDVO is an example of this capability. File is getting processed in Srilanka and Visa will be stamped from New Delhi. So eventually they should ask us to send our passport to any...

    Hi ptaral, Content and the main theme of this letter looks good, but we might need to change some lines / tone of this letter . E.g add some good Salutation. e.g : Instead of Hi Guys. We should write Dear Minister. I will try to rephrase some of the lines in this letter and then we all can...

    Just my thought : They will need passport to just stamp Travel Visa on it , I don't see there is any other use of asking for passports . So if they ask for passport we can tell them that its already stamped with 2 yrs Travel visa ( Ideally they should know this and they should have devised...

    Hello Friends, I visited Service Canada office last week . Service Canada does not allows you or your Family members to enroll for OHIP - Health Cards unless you have Full Time Job which is valid for more than 6 Months duration.

    In case of Open work permit 3 Months waiting is from the Start date of your JOB. e.g you Land on 01 June and your job starts on 20 June, so 3 months waiting period starts from 20 June.

    Hi Chintan, I think your view might be correct and a Ray of hope for all of us who are looking forward for enrolling in OHIP . I called Service Ontario today and they insisted that I should bring a job contract which says that work is valid beyond 6 months to be eligible for OHIP coverage. At...
