Hey Shiftpro You must be enjoying married life and being reunited with your wife! I wanted to ask you a question, when did your wife submit her passport to the Visa Office and how long did it take them to issue the Visa (or when did she get her passport back)? My husband and I would like to...

Hello July folks! Does anyone know how long it takes to get your passport back after you've sent it to the visa office? as I read on the letter by the previous post you can send a prepaid envelope, so that could improve the chances of getting it back to you sooner, but I guess my questions is...

Hi Crisetphil Well, MICC is supposed to mail a copy to the VO, but who know if they use regular mail and that could take a while, so I emailed the VO to find out if they had received the application, the medicals and the CSQ. They said yes to the app and the medicals but nothing about the CSQ...

I really wish there was something else I could do other than wait! The VO emailed me requesting a copy of the CSQ, do you guys think that means they are working on the application? I wonder how much longer it will be, the wait is killing me because so many decisions on our lives are pending...

Yay!! Happy dance for you :D One question, does anyone know how the VO sends the passports back to us? are you able to pick it up?

This is a tough one, because as they say on the CIC website, the average for this Visa office is 10 months; however, it very well could be less than that. I am hoping for that, but there is no way of knowing for sure. When did you send in your application to CIC Mississauga? Good Luck! De nada

Oh yes, it was pretty fast, it took them about 2 weeks to send it.

Its the CSQ, certificat de selection du Quebec, which u can only apply for after your sponsor has been approved

Hi Agga Well, I am sponsoring my husband from Sao Paulo, and so far it has been almost 4 months since we sent the papers and no news yet, although I did have an email from the consulate asking for 1 more document they needed that is issued by Quebec, where we live so I guess that it is very...

Unfortunately I understand you have to send ALL of those together with the sponsor app and your app. The best think would be to call CIC to clarify. Good luck

You can wait to do your medicals, in fact, once your file is sent to the VO, they may even request it. We did it all at once for convenience sake, but you can wait and once you do them, they are sent to your visa office directly. I don't know what you mean by PCC? Once the sponsor is approved...

Yes, you are correct, you can just write N/A You can only apply for the CSQ after your sponsor has been approved, because you need to attach a copy of the letter cic gives your sponsor (or email in some cases). I had the same question when filling up the form, and I believe I put N/A (not...

If you apply inland, you can send an open work permit application and once your sponsor is approved you can start working, but you should NOT leave the country until you have a decision because they may deny re-entry. It's a risky thing as no one tells you why they would. If you apply outland...

Happy New Year everyone!!! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season, and I hope lots of us start getting PPRs soon!!!

You can only apply for the CSQ after your sponsor has been approved, because you need to attach a copy of the letter cic gives your sponsor (or email in some cases). I had the same question when filling up the form, and I believe I put N/A (not applicable) which is the case for spousal...

Thanks for the update... I am extremely hopeful our process will be as smooth as yours. I know that with the holidays it may take a little more than 4 months, but I have a great feeling about this :D Happy holidays to you all!

Merry Christmas everyone, Happy Holidays, I hope you all have a wonderful time near your loved ones... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

CSQ stand for Certificat de Selection du Quebec. If the sponsor lives in Quebec, we have an extra step and part of our application is submitted through Quebec. Once approved, my husband is issued this certificate and the application can move on. Thankfully I got the certificate already and the...

Hey so I got an email from Sao Paulo this morning asking for my hubby's CSQ!!! I think the address dissapearing definitely means they are looking into the apps, so let's hope they get through it soon :D

Well I wonder if they won't bother sending an AOR since we've already contacted them... In any case, let's hope for the best and prepare for the worst. This has been my motto during this whole thing... I want to stay positive but realistic. Merry Xmas, or should I say "Feliz Natal"
