Hi there, After emailing the my London visa office they kindly told me that my application is almost complete, should be finalized within the next week! :D So then I will receive a confirmation of permanent residency...and then what? I'm in Canada as a visitor, so do I just need to go to the...

I guess I should join this group too! We sent in our application in June, and my common-law partner got approved as a sponsor, after which my application was sent to London VO in August. Ever since the status has been 'application received, medical exams received'. Shouldn't it say 'in process'...

OK, I'm back with questions! I continued filling out the forms and listed Canada as my current address as you suggested (as I will be in Canada when sending the forms). I also included a little extra explanation on an additional sheet, I wrote that I'm in Canada on a tourist visa living with...

Alrighty, thanks guys! It's funny that I was not planning to put the Canadian address there, but I guess it makes sense. I was just so sure that if I'm a visitor, I cant say that I live in Canada. Although, in theory I don't, it's just my residence! Anyway, thank you for your advice and...

Hello again and sorry for the confusing title! It was kind of hard to try to summarize the situation... Anyway so I'm, once again, clueless of what to do. My sponsor (common law) and I are currently living in Australia and have been living in Europe before that. We are now moving back to Canada...

Ahh, thanks guys for helping me out :) Have a good day both of you!

Hello everyone again, So my situation is very simple, I am the only applicant and I'm being sponsored by my common-law partner from ourside Canada. In the application kit there is 'additional dependants' form which I don't think I need, as don't have any dependants. Can I just leave this form...

Thanks a lot everyone for your advice! I think I will indeed have to give one more call to the DMP's office and if that leads me nowhere, I will have to contact the Sydney visa office. I would really like to get my application done as perfect as possible, but this stupid medical thing is such...

CharlieD: I tried calling the DMP office again and attempted to be very firm about it and explain that they need to have the form. No dice. They still insisted that it's a stamped form that I need to get from Canada and that they only have forms 4519 or something similar. So, if I do not send...

Thank you easykiwi for clearing that up! I thought that was the case, but I just wanted confirmation :)

^ And any idea how long the 1st stage takes? Like are we talking about 2 months, 10 months...? I'm considering an inland application after all, as it seems we'd be going to Canada right after sending our application..so might do it inland anyway.

Thank you Scylla! :)

I hope to join this group soon! We are in the process of doing our application and if I get my police clearance gets in this month, then we'll send the application asap :)

This forum is brilliant! I was also wondering what date it was that they were asking in this...Now I know :)

Ok, I'm a newbie and a little confused one too ;D I'm not Australian, however I do currently live here with my Canadian boyfriend. All this talk about visa offices..So do we send the application first to Mississauga (don't all outland applications go there?) and then they will forward it to...

Thanks indeed for clearing that up. Note for greenish, in Australia I was told that I need at least 5 photographs, but they didn't seem to know much about things ;) So in theory I can send my application from Oz without the medical exam, enter Canada as a visitor and then they would tell me...

Oh crap, I got my hopes up! Thanks for clearing that up anyway. One more question though, regarding the visa offices. I was under the impression that I have to send mine to the Mississauga office as it deals with out of the country applications..?

Thanks Ditta! Although, I'm not applying from within Canada, we are both in sunny Australia now. However, we are planning to return to Canada quite soon soon after sending the application. So in my case, I'd just pay the $150 and include the application for work permit made outside Canada...

Hello! I have a problem with the medical exam as well. I had understood as CharlieD said, that I have to send my medical exam WITH the application. So I called DMP to make an appointment, but they said they cannot even make an appointment unless I have been give a form 1017 (I think that...

I have been wondering the same question, I will be sending my application in a few weeks from outside Canada. I find it really hard to find information about the open work permit in this case.. ! Does anyone know if I need to send the work permit application at the same time (like in the same...
