Congrats!!!!!

Hey everyone! So my ECAS updated to Decision Made today! Our application is in the Bogota, Colombia VO, so at least that VO is moving!

yes originals are needed. I'm in exactly the same situation as you and i had to have my wife send the paperwork with signed originals back to me in Canada (From Bogota Colombia).

If you can get her to Canada after you get married you can then apply inland...the trick is getting her a visitor visa if she is from a non-visa exempt country (Pakistan is non-visa exempt). Chances are you will need to get married , return to Canada and then apply for the spousal visa. It sucks...

As others have stated there is no income requirement for SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP. So the key there is you would have to be married before you could be a Sponsor for the spousal visa, just FYI. Honestly the spousal sponsorship is your best option (assuming this to be a serious relationship) as you...

Its nice to see the restrictions starting to ease up a bit. Of course for those of us still waiting for PR for our spouses this doesn't change things until that is completed. Of course once my wife (for example) gets her PR eventually approved (God-willing) then it should make it easier to bring...

Just to add on to this, I just got off the phone with my wife in Bogotá, and she finally got her Medical exam booked for this Thursday! we were seriously starting to despair about getting this done (she’d already done the biometrics and gotten her police certificate so this was one of the last...

Absolutely nothing on our end either Johnny.....my wife still can’t complete her Medical exam because although she is at least in contact with a doctor now, the labs that do parts of the medical are still closed for these requests. So despite being given a 60 day timetable we will obviously need...

Wow!! I really hope som wow, I really hope this is the case! this would hopefully mean my wife could finally get her medical exam done, and our applications could all move forward! (As long as the government feels it is safe to start to reopen the country...id hate to see Colombia turn into...

Yes I’m in Alberta. And wow, yes I’ve read a lot about the extra hoops Quebec applicants have to go through...good luck! Right now there’s no planes flying between Canada and Colombia anyway, (or not for non essential travel anyway) so I think we are all on hold regardless

Hmmm, that might have been me! ...and as I just posted in the November Outland thread, we got the Medical request email on March 26th...but my wife has been trying daily to get a medical exam appointment and no doctor is even picking up the phone! (She’s in Bogotá) So everything is completely on...

My wife is in BOGOTÁ, COLOMBIA, and we received the Pre-arrival letter on March 25th, and the Medical exam request on March 26th. Of course Colombia has been in total lockdown and my wife has not been able to reach any of the 3 doctors to schedule the exam. I know a lot of us are in this same...

Wow, what what VO is your office in??

our file got moved to Bogotá VO office in early January and then things got a bit delayed due to having submit some extra documents...at this point though having completed nearly every step, and the file started showign “in Process“ as of Feb 24th, we havnt had the Medical request yet so I’m...

We used G4S...and at first one of the additional documents they requested was a PAPER copy of the PC, which you likely know is not how it’s done in Colombia, so that lead to some serious stress until my guy sorted it out for us. But yeah eventually they accepted the digital copy (as they should...

No worries, here is my rough timeline (and as I’ve got a representative handling our application, the more recent notes are just what I’m seeing in Ecas) Application received: November 25th AOR1: December 12th Request for Biometrics: December 27th, Biometrics done: January 3rd SA: Dec 30th...

Hey thanks for the response! not surprised to hear this honestly....my application just changed this week in status from "application received" to "In process". So i'm happy its moving along now at least (We had to submit some additional documents so apparently they were received lol)...anyway...

Hey all...so heres my situation...our application went fairly smoothly through the first few phases (app recieved Nov 25th, SA approved, biometrics done, police certificate requested and done) ...then we got an email on about Jan 7th stating that our file was being sent to the Bogota VO for...

Thanks will do, and you too!!

Thanks for the response! Interestingly it looks like your current application is in the same state as ours, ...we also got the request for bio, and Police check, but no request for medical, which it looks like most everyone has gotten. I guess that will come. I’m heading to Bogotá next week to...
