    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    Congrats! The date shown on your work permit- is its expiry date (exactly 2 years since it has been issued). Cic tends to give a two-year work permit for inland spousal sponsorship applications (with some exceptions, of course). And unfortunately it doesn't guarantee that you'll get pr by then.

    cpcm-extcom @cic . gc . ca email not working!!

    I believe the problem is the size of the file you're sending. If your file size exceeds 5 Mb you won't be able to send it.

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2014

    I was in your shoes last year. Got first AOR, then in a week my package was returned. Second time I received AOR a bit later. The timeline for the AOR changes all the time, some people never receive it. According to the spreadsheet, it takes around 3 months now. Try checking e-cas if you have...

    How LONG now!?!?

    I saw people were getting their DM and landing within a month after the documents were sent. But for me it had already been 2 months after they received additional docs and nothing. In general I've heard something about 1 to 3 months waiting time after SA.

    As far as I know you get the form (for upfront medical) from a panel physician after the medical examination.

    Gcms Notes

    Correct, I order the notes under Privacy Act. I don't need to use the Access to Information Act as both my sponsor and I are in Canada, therefore I get all the information for free. If the sponsored person is residing outside of Canada, then you are correct, Privacy Act will not apply. That is...

    Yes, I did. Like, 5 times already. Always received them within a month. Never paid ANYTHING. And yes, I am in Canada.

    Gcms Notes

    Actually, from inside Canada you can order notes for free. If the sponsor is ordering notes for the applicant, he just has to attach the consent form signed by the applicant.

    pls help, good or bad if CIC sent correspondence ?

    Well, this is basically just my opinion. But I think the agents do leave notes, and the officer in cic can actually see them. After getting SA, an officer requested some documents from me. I submitted them via fax and email, both unsuccessfully (at least I thought so). I had to call the call...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    You can just go and apply for a new visa online. You don't have to change conditions/extend stay, as you are now considered a worker. Not sure if there are any risks, just make sure that you submit all the documents they ask for. Also if I were you, I would've shown that you have enough funds...

    I am in your timeline- date application received, Sept. 16th, 2014. The date we could see our application in ecas is the same as it was shown In process on sponsor's side - May 19th, 2015. Also this was the same day we received second AOR. SA was received on Sept. 27th. Same day-request for...

    Same happened to me. The document with additional requested docs was dated Sep 27, though mailed on Oct 5, therefore received by me on Oct 8. I was lucky to have the documents ready. In other case, I would've missed the deadline

    Marriage to foreign national - IDs need translating?

    Oh, sorry, I misunderstood your question. I provided my passport at that moment, though my name was written there in both English and native language. For the second one I used either Ontario id or the credit card. But this is just my experience, hope anyone else here can help you with that.

    Marriage to foreign national - IDs need translating?

    As far as I know, cic asks for a certified translation of any documents that are originally not in English/French. At least this is what they say in help centre: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=018&t=4

    Hello guys, Just wanted to post an update. I'm Sep 16, 2014 applicant. My husband received Sponsorship Approval via email this Sunday, Sept 27, from the officer SMC. Today they already updated ecas. It still says "in process", but when you go further, it says "we sent you correspondence about...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    Well, I know, it is disappointing, but you won't have to update everything. Actually, you will have to update only the information they will ask for, like the form, that was outdated (not all the documents, and only if they ask for it). So don't be upset now. Just make sure that in you...

    Getting AOR doesn't mean that your application won't be returned. Mine was the next day after I received my first AOR. You can try and send updated form together with the explanation letter, just using your uci number, name, date and country of birth. I would do so, but I'm not an expert, so...

    Domestic tuition fees while waiting PR

    I cannot provide the exact link, though from my experience with UWO, being married to a Canadian citizen makes you eligible for domestic tuition as a dependent.
