Sorry to hear that Andrew-Brit. >:(

Sandands, thank you - that reassures me! :) Congrats to all those receiving DM, however I am with Andrew - Brit - screw you London >:( >:( >:(

Hi Taffy7 - so, if your dependent is not immigrating with you, did you still have to do a medical and a police check for him? We are being asked for a medical and a police check for my partner's daughter, even though we have no contact with her, even though she is in fact 19 years old and even...

Lol, I hate their stupid letters too!!! They are incredibly unclear and really poorly written! Thank you so much for your advice. We are going to send the notarised declaration with an accompanying letter of explanation and hope for the best!!! :)

Sorry Andrew Brit, I also meant to say thank you to you. :)

I emailed them back, explaining that we are unable to get medical, Schedule A form, police certificate or passport for the daughter. Although the daughter is 19 years old, she turned 19 5 months after we submitted the application so they are treating her as a non-accompanying dependent. I also...

Sorry guys, but another question relating to this letter - it says, on her behalf, provide a completed Schedule A form, up to date police certificate and a photocopy of her passport ----- do we have to do these???? We can't apply for a police certificate for her not get a copy of her passport...

Hi guys, help needed please. Today I received the following from CIC: Please be advised that your child. ---------------------, appears to meet the definition of a dependent child. Please provide an explanation of the efforts you have made to try to contact your daughter for the purposes of...

Thank you elokuu :)

Andrew-Brit, Can I just ask? Are the applications on the spreadsheet a combination of inland and outland apps? If this is the case, is there not a significant difference between the processing times for inland and outland? I am just speculating as to whether or not some might be taking longer...

Okay Warzo, that's reassuring, thank you :)

Thanks Andrew Brit for updating spreadsheet. Congrats to all those receiving DM and nice to see some 2014 applicants in there! Advice please - partner's application was filed December 2014 and the criminal record check would have been done around August 2014 as we were preparing to send in...

Andrew Brit - update for spreadsheet - applied for my partner's notes under the Access to Information Act as we are located in UK. This was done Sunday, 8th November. Received a response from CIC on Monday, 9th November stating that they were processing my request. Thank you.

Is there not something that we can do, as a collective, to try and put some pressure on these people? I am nearing one year for a standard straightforward application and think this is ridiculous...I am incredibly happy for those receiving DM from 2015, but it is indeed a bitter pill for the...

Canuck in UK - thanks for your reply. Andrew Brit - update for you, although not a particularly interesting one and not sure if this is the kind of info you track, but I had a reply from CIC to my general query asking should we submit a new police check and informing them that my partner had no...

Dear All Congrats to all those who have received COPR! Just a couple questions - when we submitted our app in December 2014, the processing time was 11 months. When emailing or trying to contact CIC, they state that they will not communicate or respond if your app is not over the processing...

Keeping my fingers crossed you get some good news soon - your wait time is getting silly now. >:(

Thanks Canuck in UK for the information and you are correct, I am probably over stressing about this - I pretty much overstress everything! When you say the length of stay is determined by CBSA on entry does that mean that, if I were to book my partner a ticket with a 6 month return date, CBSA...

Andrew Brit - Thank you for the information. I get concerned about dual intent because CIC state that: Assessing dual intent A person’s desire to apply for permanent resident status in Canada may be legitimate. An officer should distinguish between an applicant whose intentions are bona...

Dear All, I have a question - my partner and I are planning on going to Canada from the UK in March 2016 with our children. We had hoped to stay permanently as we had thought we would have DM by then. However, my concern is this - if we do not have DM by then, what is the best way to enter...
