wow. So long to wait. 1991 is a tricky year. Wonder why they have initiated it again. Fingers crossed for you.

...landed. ;D Good luck to all the other February applicants.

I'm on a group plan too. I've filled out all the forms, printed copies of documents and am ready to snail mail them. I'll phone tomorrow just to make sure about it all. Thanks for your input.

I tried to fill out the online form to add my husband to my account. It wants a care card number for him, but of course how could he have one if he's a landed immigrant? I can't leave it blank, it won't accept that, and I can't put in any random numbers. If anyone knows a way to remedy this...

Yes you may have been scammed but you were part of the problem because you thought you could find true love this way. It's good you found out now and not later. Isn't it obvious why these girls join these dating sites and why men join them too? I suppose some find love this way but I am very...

One more day. He's leaving in an hour. I won't be online much anymore. If anyone wants to ask me anything just PM me. Hoping the best for all Vienna applicants. And thanks to everyone for their support and advice. Metta, Cleo

It would be interesting to do research into other countries where military service is mandatory and if the checks take as long as those from the Balkans. There are known war criminals that made it to Canada in the '90s so I'm sure they are being extra vigilant about that. And of course, can...

I like this idea of a super visa. It will eliminate people abusing our medical system. I know of many instances of this happening. Don't deny it. I will be politically incorrect and not sign this petition. It's a privilege to come to Canada, not a right.

I was just looking at some other threads, one from Beijing. Three months to process an application! That is NOT right.

@ dbaltov....I totally agree with you, but in Asia they don't have military service and war criminals. It's the background checks from CSIS that take all the time it seems. I'm lucky that my husband had his service just before the wars started, so it didn't take that long but still, we never...

Well, I'm waiting for my husband to get here...8 more days. And some of the others have already landed. :D

I guess we all feel more attachment to where we were born and raised. That's understandable. But I would never complain about anyone else's country.

Dear Canada, I love you. I love winter too because I was born in a little town in the Rockies in January. And of course everyone knows Canada only has winter 12 months of the year. Snow makes me happy. I've lived in another country for awhile and I've traveled a lot and I can honestly say...

Frida, my husband came here on a visitor visa last year. He had a difficult time getting it because it was hard to prove he wouldn't leave afterwards. ( he was refused the first time) So, when he finally did get one, he just told the officer that he was going to visit his girlfriend. But he...

You don't need a tourist visa because you are from Slovenia.

We just kept our names to keep things simpler. We might change later on but we thought it might slow things down if we had to go through all that name change stuff. Well, I lived in Quebec 20 years ago. I almost got married, but there was this law that said you had to take a marriage course...

Wow, sponsorship approval times have gone up a bit. Yeah, what Serdj said...the worst thing you can do is compare your application to others. Doesn't do any good and only causes frustration.

We actually have another Vienna Office thread. You might find some useful info on there. And most of us post to that thread too. You can see if your situation is similar. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/vienna-office-t74361.0.html;msg1060691#msg1060691

Is this about you or your friend from Guatemala?
