it essentially depends on the Border officer , so even if they say 2 -3 months they could be granted the maximum allowed or they could be asked to show their return ticket and allow them for the specified period. there are instances they just don't ask the anything, and just allow them for the...

I believe initial approval is done in Ottawa and forwarded to the CHC responsible for the option selected in section 9 of IMM5257( country where applying) good luck !!!

I think you are better off buying a return ticket with the option to change with less fine. One way tickets are often more expensive and the maximum return date you will get is about a year so if you are not sure how long they will stay, buy a return with the maximum return date and you can...

funny as it may be, make sure the file name is nothing but IMM5257.pdf good luck !!!

based on the time line you provided, she was allowed the maximum time of two years (seems close to it depending on her visa validity/passport expiration) assuming she came in on April 23 2014 and the stamped date is feb 23 2016. there is nothing to worry about as they dont always give the...

Wait for the GCMS notes to see specifics and my recommendation is to apply for super Visa. (assuming you meet the LICO) you don't need a lawyer in my opinion,and i believe you are right in saying the main reason might was due to lack of ties at home(which is not a big deal) write a new...

was it super visa that was given? i had something similar, applied for visitor visa, was asked to provide insurance and PG1 super visa was given for 10yrs. CIC now issues visitor visa up till the expiration of the passport so i guess its a new development which is good good luck !!!!

i would suggest to do the application and depending on how you apply i.e online or on paper, you may/may not need to submit medical insurance. if online, the question will list insurance as a required document so you cant submit without it. If paper application, you might be able to submit...

I would imagine visitor visa would be faster as there is no need for medicals but then it all depends on the volumes received at the given time. PS: sometimes if you request for a visitor visa,CHC could process it as a super visa and request for medicals and insurance so be prepared. good luck !!!

No one can really tell so you just have to be patient. good luck !!!

@canadavisa12345 did you say 9 months and still waiting?something is not right. i applied for my inlaws nov last year and it only took 1 month from the time of online submission to passport collection.

i would suggest patience. she already emailed them through the portal and sometimes could take up to 15 business days for response good luck !!!

Hi There, there is no special form for co-signing for super visa however ensure the below are fulfilled. 1 - Make sure both your names (yourself and spouse) is listed in the forms i.e. whom they are visiting etc. 2 - Write the letter of invitation and sign together. you can be generic but...

are you applying online? if so, they dont need to got to VAC until they have been requested to submit passport. i personally prefer online as it seems more streamlined good luck !!!

@Pari123 i don't think 2months is unreasonable. just make sure you have all the required supporting documents good luck !!!

Just be prepared for travel insurance if the application is automatically processed as Super visa. It happened to me, my folks wanted to come just for a month, boom, was asked to submit insurance for 1 year and they were both issued 10yrs PG1 visas good luck !!!

the processing office is determined by the location from which you are applying i.e Country of Residence I would recommend you have them apply and choose their country of residence as they will be temporary residents in the uk and proving ties might be a bit challenging good luck !!!

i would recommend you be patient has its most likely not yet reviewed/approved in principle by Ottawa so Delhi will not have anything nor respond to any inquiries. I can tell you from experience they reply within 10 business day if a file is with them good luck !!!

Medical is upon request by CIC and travel insurance is during the initial application (ensure you have the online wizard correct so as to have the option to submit the travel insurance as a supporting doc) good luck !!!

I dont believe they base the requirement on how long the sponsor has been a permanent resident or not. remember, they still have to prove ties to their home country and its more about them returning after their temporary visit versus your ability to support them in canada good luck !!!!
