it will take quite some time. you have to wait until you receive Sponsor's approval (SA) - the e-mail they send you contains the UCI (unique client identifier) which lets you verify your status online. since SA processing takes around 2 months now (from the day your application arrived at their...

i feel you, we paid 190 USD here in Romania (230 CAD) .. this converting to almost 800 lei (our currency). minimum wage salary is 700 lei.. it's a total rip-off for the "exam" they're performing.

your husband can say he's just visiting for a few months.. 3-4 or so.. they'll surely stamp his passport for a 6 month entry.. he can request an extension afterwards if necessary.

deedee it does depend where you leave from.. if he's leaving from Calgary for example, it will cost him more since it's farther away.. i hope we can find a good deal :( it's annoying 'cause we need to wait until we get the next PPR e-mail, i don't wanna risk getting it faster.

deedee the prices are ridiculous :o especially for romanians ::) i found nice tickets at 800 CAD but with 2 stops.. seems like that would mess it up since they'd make me do the landing procedure in Toronto and i'd lose my connection to Montreal so i have to find another solution :( yeah i...

SuiGeneris, i'd follow what the others did since you're a U.S. applicant. if you want more guidance on how to organize photos and all the other stuff in the app, you can check this thread, helped me a lot...

well it is theorethically true, these are the final steps before PPR .. i guess it could take around 3-4 weeks to finalize everything. it's just that i'm not so sure in your case. i found this thread, maybe they know more...

oh ok.. it's kinda risky then.. thanks for your reply, MilesAway.

since i'm a class A paranoid, we sent around 100 photos, 2/A4 page, in colour, each one of them having a description underneath. example: Date: ... Persons in the photo: me (personal applicant), X (sponsor), Y (sponsor's mother), Z (P.A.'s father), etc Location: ... however, i'm glad i did...

Hi everyone :), i hope someone can help me. We're leaving at the beginning of july and i kept searching for planes, the best offers i found had 1 stop at Toronto airport. However, i want to land in Montreal. Since my first stop in Canada will be in Toronto, will they obligate me to do the...

from my knowledge, may-june applicants from London are still waiting.. i saw your older posts, for Pakistani applicants it can maybe take a little while longer, from what i know you get 2 Passport requests and have different background/eligibility checks etc. better search for a thread...

that depends on your visa office. which is it?

woah so much hassle and documents for a visitor visa... it's sad they require so much to even consider giving a visa to the wife of a canadian.. sad indeed. nevertheless, if we were still apart from each other, i would do the same right now.

that doesn't make any sense honestly.. i think you should send a case specific enquiry to the embassy (include your date of birth, UCI and/or file number) and ask them what's up, your passport either comes in another package or they did a mistake or it was on purpose.. you should've been...

hi there! :) i wasn't sure so i checked on CIC's site: Country: Japan You do not need a visa to visit or transit Canada. what Celandrius was talking about - TRV - is a tourist visa basically, for temporary residence. however, your wife doesn't need one. honestly i'm pretty sure you could go...

So true Ravcat! And we're not discussing trivial problems here, it's about immigration! it's such an important thing for many and since we all know CIC *can* be difficult, being able to ask anything (granted you did your research beforehand, obviously), is, like you said, incredible :) taffy...

Ok, *sorry* for posting this, i have no questions about immigration whatsoever ;D I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to the seniors/veterans of this forum for always having answers to any kind of questions, wacko or not :). i frequently needed help and fortunately always got a pertinent...

wow teodorix!! awesome! congrats :D i'm very surprised they approved you! usually when you're the wife of a canadian, no chance of getting approved for a visitor visa.. interesting that you got approved! maybe you should make a new thread on the forum about your successful story, this rarely...

teodorix, you're right, the medical should expire on April 30 this year.. but according to our first set of GCMS notes, the medical was set to expire on May 12 - this was given from the CIC London department that handles medicals. no idea why. well actually, as soon as you get Sponsor's...

thanks everyone :) Impresso, when does your current medical expire (or is it already expired) ?
