Wow! Congrats! That must be such a relief!

It's not a statutory holiday for people working for the Government of Canada, wherever they work.

It's not a private number, this I can tell you. When they called my husband (who is in Turkey), the call was coming from a number in Ankara. The same day, I suspect them to have tried to contact me also (I'm in Canada). It was still night time for me, so I didn't answer. The number showing up on...

In the instructions, they clearly mention you don't need to provide any proof if your address is in Canada. I believe this checkbox is a reminder for people having a postal address out of Canada. Of course, it will never hurt to add a scan of a PR card or a Canadian passport, so it's up to you...

No, you don't need to sign it as a spouse. It's only for a couple giving access to a third person. Your wife can fill it out online, print it, sign it, scan it, save it as a PDF file, then send it to you by email. The same thing goes for the request form (you input data, print, sign, scan, save...

May I answer? 1- You need to submit both forms. Your wife must sign the consent form (IMM 5744). 2- If you have a mailing address in Canada, you don't have to provide a proof. 3- Yes, you make the request under the "Access to Information Act". You must pay 5$ and include the receipt. 4- Your...

According to their Website, they are working tomorrow. What makes you think the Embassy could be off? Update: I see, tomorrow is Family day. This is not a Canadian holiday, but a provincial holiday in four provinces (BC, AB, SK, ON).

I believe a file will not be put in process before eligibility is passed. In our case, an interview was required for assessing it.

Yes, some good news on our side. We were finally able to access eCAS today (it didn't work for 10 days) and our status changed to In Process on February 4, the same day as the interview. It looks like the visa officer believed our marriage is bona fide.

Our file is finally In Process (since 4 February, same day as the interview). Please update the spreadsheet! :D

Please update the spreadsheets, our file is finally in Process (since February 4)! Sounds like the visa officer believed our marriage is bona fide, yippee! :D

Maximum 30 calendar days.

Ours is Paris. Strange! I ordered a second set last evening. If there is still no activity, I'll seriously wonder where the visa officer wrote her concerns down!

What medical office is mentioned in your (how many sets did you order?) GSMC notes?

London? I thought this was done in Paris!

Our experience, in two short paragraphs: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/damascusspousal-since-jan-2010-or-late-2009-t51197.0.html;msg2059003#msg2059003

It looks like you have the wrong interview date in your profile timeline... unless you had one yourself in Canada.

The worst is when it stops working 2-3 days after your spouse had an interview at the visa office. Ouch!

Still not working for me. Last time it worked was 5-6 days ago.

You're likely to receive a generic answer about having to wait for background and security checks outcome.
