    Authorization to return to Canada.

    Hi One or two pages is okay keep it short but address all the issues. You don't have to go into detail about the claim you are making a statement about the reasons why you should be granted authorization to return to canada and stress the fact that he was a minor. Check the operational manual...

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    I also think is very good news. Your ARC has probably been approved but they cant issue a COPR when the medicals have expired. The expiry date of the medicals is tied to the expiry date of the COPR. You are almost done, Keep us posted

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    The VO may just extend the medicals, they are able to do a one year extension, that's what they did in our case and we didn't know, we only found out later when my MP inquire about it.

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    Hi Maybe you case is a bit different because your husband has an exclusion order and you may not need the ARC. My husband had a departure order that turned into deportation when he did not leave Canada within the 30 days after receiving the negative decision from his refugee claim. He...

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    Your medicals can be extended by the VO. My husband's medicals were extended , they didn't inform us we just found out when my MP inquire about the application. You can send an email to VO and ask them if they received all the documents you sent. In my experience the VO does not tell where in...

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    Wow, which visa office were you dealing with? Maybe the sponsor can contact the MP, if the file is in Ottawa they may be able to put some pressure. I know the current Minister is talking about faster family reunification, on March 8 he released the report to the Parliament so the information is...

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    We still don't have a response, my husband sent all the information in April last year and when I inquire about it the VO said that "a review is still ongoing", in other words waiting to be reviewed. I spoke with my MP , he has been checking the application and I have also been following the...

    VIENNA OFFICE

    I sent an email to Vienna in February and I only got a response this week, they took 22 days to reply back and in the past they normally responded within a few days (3-5 days) so it looks like things are really slow there.

    Authorization to return to Canada.

    When my husband submitted his ARC the payment could not be made in Canada, he followed the instructions for his VO and he bought a bank draft and submitted a scanned copy of the draft with his Arc statement to the Vienna Visa office , he sent everything by email.
