hey, yeah, you include your kid as well , it's your dependant. but hey, wait, if you're a canadian citizen, i think he gets canadian citizenship straight away? please make a new thread about it and seniors will respond to you. we're in the same boat i see, finally someone applying thru...

congrats benni & uskyoot! ;D we haven't received anything. CIC is moving very VERY slow... when i think that we have the Quebec BS to go through as well, i wanna punch a wall or something ::)

you're the sponsor and your spouse is the principal applicant/sponsored person. so obviously you didn't have to complete the additional family form since it's for the sponsored person, not you. i really don't understand the confusion here. there's only one checklist that comprises documents &...

you don't need to wait a second! mail that app right now :P the clinic where you do your medical transfers all your results to the canadians directly.

just becuase it says that on their site, doesn't mean they finished with alll aplications prior to May 8. CIC received some applications from this thread on May 1st/2nd and they didn't receive SA either.

Yeah, if i would be a VO, i would understand. i really hope they will. when did you submit the app?

Facebook conversations isn't the only thing, i would say photos are more valuable.. we submitted ~ 150 photos with both our families. i guess if you provided good explanations it'll maybe be fine, but i'm really not sure... maybe others that are more experienced can give you better advice...

honestly i don't know .. seems like it's a fairly complicated situation.. him being from Turkey means he'll be scrutinized more .. so a lot of proof are necessary.. what kind of photos did you send? how many?

You're welcome :) it's very important to sign in all the provided spaces (CIC may return your whole app if not - it would cause delays eitherway). additionally, make sure to have the most recent updated forms. good luck!

CIC's moving very slow.. it's very frustrating.. weird no one else got AOR .. 55 days my ass..

You can explain them why you don't have any wedding photos (his mom's death), i guess it's a reasonable excuse. I was in a similar situation and i didn't do the church wedding because of it. I just explained them why and mentioned i'll do it at a later date in Canada. On another note, make sure...

yes. on the last page, there are 3 places to sign: one for you, one for the co-signer (leave it blank) and one for your wife - this one she needs to sign.

you don't have a co-signer. imagine you'd sponsor a child and you and your spouse are in living in Canada - you'd have a co-signer (her). but in this case it's no co-signer. don't remember what i did in my app, but i think i left it blank.

yes. send them an e-mail notifying them of the change. include UCI, file number, name, date of birth, etc. also i think you should also attach a photocopy of his new passport.

shinningstar, that's how it was ordered from the beginning.

it's not really fair.. given the fact that we PAY them.. but in the end they're humans like us.. anyway.. maybe you'll receive AOR together with SA ;)

i'm in the may thread, our app was received may 9th and we still haven't heard a thing from CIC. there are 3 that received only AOR (not SA), and they're past the 60 day mark.

how is it cheaper in Western Europe? i know someone from Germany that paid 350 euros on her medical for Canadian immigration (family class). maybe it depends on the country? i have no idea how they calculate it, but you're right vania, doing it at a private hospital would have been cheaper ...

well, it really depends on some things - where is your wife from? depending on that, she can easily come to Canada (from a visa exempt country) or apply for a tourist visa.. but she can be refused if she doesn't show enough proof of ties to her home country (a job that waits for her when she's...

Raj, i don't like the new data set. it doesn't show refusal rates anymore, neither processing times for 20,30,40 % of apps, etc... this dataset doesn't say too much to me ::)
