Finally some progress. 2 days after e-mailing them they requested my wife re-do her medicals. She called IOM in HCM city and they said earliest they can do med cert for Canada is June 2nd. Don't know if this near the end as they didn't ask for passport. Trying to find out how to do limited...

still waiting... it's past the 13 months standard processing time for Vietnam. Going to fill in the constituent form and fire off an e-mail to my MP now along with submitting an online case enquiry.

Yes my MP e-mailed me today to fill out a constituent form - request for assisstance so that he can do an immigration enquiry. I also submitted a case enquiry letting them know it's past normal processing time. I thought I had a rock solid application. Living with my wife for over 3 years, 1...

thanks. It's been 14 months and no interview requested. I'm past normal processing time of 13 months. This will be the 5th time I've ordered GCMS notes. Hopefully something new. They've done nothing to my application since July when they recommended wav and eligibility passed.

I noticed they changed the consent form for GCMS notes on 10-2016. I printed off a bunch of 07-2016 consent form last year and been using them right up until March 2017. I ran out of consent form and noticed there is no section for the sponsor to sign unlike the 07-2016 form but similar to the...

did they change consent form for GCMS notes again on October 2016? I printed off a bunch of consent form from July 2016 which I've last used on March 2017 and received my GCMS notes. I ran out of consent form and see the new consent form dated 10-2016 and does not require sponsor's signature...

I'm still waiting. According to my GCMS notes interview was waived and officer recommended eligibility be passed all back in July. Since than nothing new has been done on our files. Our Visa office normal processing time is 14 months so will see what happens next month.

Agree. I applied in March and medical in February. If medical expires they either can extend it or request you do a new one. Did you get an interview request? Next month will be a year since we applied and no interview request so far.

Just applied, 4 times now, on an outland application while outside Canada too. Cost $5. I got my wife to sign the consent form. Snap a picture with my camera of the signed consent form and uploaded it to ATIP.

Only reason I know about these surprise visit cases was because someone from Canada came to Vietnam to live with his wife couple days ago. His wife wasn't home but he was and he said they asked him questions and took pictures of his apartment. I hinted about toothbrush and he said his wife is a...

CIC do both inland and outland surprise visits. You can read about the cases on Canlii. One case that comes to mind is the CIC's surprise visit with both husband and wife not home. Instead their supposedly sister who turns out to be a cousin with psychological disorder is home and tells the CIC...

6 weeks for marriage paperwork is normal in Vietnam. Took me 6 months to get our marriage certificate and that is over 1 year from when we did the marriage ceremony. I've spent over 3 years now in Vietnam and 10 months since we submitted our application. Hopefully you can see why your...

She may be testing you by accusing you of fraud to see how you'd react.

I hope so. My place ain't easy to find. Every courier have had to call for directions. It's hidden deep in an alley. They can see me walking around half naked and my 7 month pregnant wife with our 1 year old daughter with all her toys littered all over the house. We still have those stickers...

was curious about these CIC visits so dug a bit deeper. It actually happened for some. And they do visit villages. My 1 year old daughter always calls me 'ba' which means father automatic visa for my wife lol...

I wish they came visit my wife, daughter and I. And everyone else if it speeds up the application to prove our relationship is genuine. Our house is insane. We live and support her 70 year old parents and including all my wife's brother's and sister's family we have anywhere around 30 people...

congrats Singviet!

These changes are great but more transparency and customer service in the process would be surely welcomed. Can't understand why my application still in the eligibility stage while others in Vietnam that applied afterwards got interviewed already or approved. I've seen some get interview...

congrats Richard Lin! Sounds like your file is going well with the background check. Hopefully you'll get passport request soon.
