    Permanent Resident seeking Visa to travel to USA

    I realize if you look at the US immigration site they state that PR status means nothing and that your request is based on the passport you hold. All very true.....but for us, without a PR card my wife would never have been given a visitor visa to the US. She holds a Vietnamese passport...

    Well as I said....it could not have been easier. We were directed to a desk where a very pleasant lady welcomed my wife to Canada. She then did a quick review of her paper work. Then proceeded to hand my wife a number of pamphlets and a book with all sorts of information to help new immigrants...

    If interview is waived does applicant receive a letter/e-mail notifying them?

    I think a possible reason for no notice of interviews being waived is that they hold the right to call you in for an interview at any stage right up until the end if they feel something has changed in your file. This is what I have gotton from reading any comunication with CIC.
