Hi, Is there an option available to apply for a Visitor's visa in-person at the Canadian consulate in Los Angeles. If yes, do we need an appointment or if someone can help explain that process. Thank you.

Dear members, I’m trying to get information on how I can sponsor my wife and stepson for Canadian PR. I’m currently working in US on a TN. My wife (Pakistani citizen) and stepson (Pakistani citizen) are here with me in US on TD visas respectively. I have been outside of Canada for the last 5...

thanks for such a detailed reply. I'll definitely follow your thoughts on this. Hopefully other people find this information useful as well. Cheers.

Thanks for replying to my request. Below are the answers to your questions. 1. How long does your mother-in-law want to visit? 8 weeks (2 months) 2. What is the purpose of her visit? My wife is pregnant and the delivery is due for next month, so we need family help in this situation as I...

Dear Forum members, My Family In-Law (5 people, Father and Mother In-Law, 2 Sisters-In-Law and One Brother In-Law) applied for a Visit Visa (CHC Islamabad, Pakistan) which unfortunately got rejected. All of the children of my In-Laws are under 18 years old. My father In-Law runs a restaurant...

The application was submitted via VFS on Dec. 19, 2016. So it is over 30 working days or so. So it seems CHC took their time to process the application. Is it possible for someone to pickup the passport on behalf of an applicant. Does the applicant needs to write some sorts of a Letter of...

Dear forum members, My InLaws applied for the Visit Visa in late December 2016. I was able to link the Paper application to the online account. The online status hasn't changed in a while, it still says "OPEN" however today they have received a message (Text Message) stating that the passport...

Any feedback or advise. Thanks for looking into this.

Dear Forum members, We are planning to apply for a Visitor visa for my Inlaws (Father and Mother InLaw, Brother Inlaw - Minor, 2 Sister InLaws). My father inlaw runs a very successful business and has been doing this business for over 20+ years. Has quite many properties and a regular tax...

Hi Femzade, Test and Interview and went very smooth. I was told to get one of the stamp translated into English. The officer asked me couple of questions in regards to my job. Otherwise it was a pretty straight forward process. It took us close to 1.5 hours to go through the test and interview...

Hi Calgary-timeliner, The timeline should be available in the google document that is floating in this forum for Calgary, however following is the quick recap. Applied: Nov 2013. File Transferred to Calgary: March 2014 Test: March 2015 Oath: April 2015 Thanks for your kind thoughts.

Hi forum members, Yesterday, I attended the oath ceremony along with my family. We arrived 15 minutes before the set time and we were let into the room around 10 minutes over the mentioned time. Our PR Cards were taken away and we signed few forms. They didn't check the landing papers or any...

Dear All, My test was on Feb 11, 2015 and as everyone else I have received the oath notification for April 13 as well. Congratulations to all the folks who have received oath notifications and wish everyone good luck who will soon receive test notifications. Cheers.

Still nothing yet. I submitted the Exit and Entry stamps translation to CIC the same week of my test. Call Center last week confirmed that the document was received and the status is still in progress. So hopefully I might hear something from them in the next week or so.

I appeared for our test (as it was a family application) on Feb.11.2015. There were around 20-25 people that I could see in queue. They explicitly called my name (along with wife's name) to come upfront for an interview. However everyone else just waited in line to be called by the next...

Today I have received the Test Notification to appear for test on Feb.11. I am a November 2013 Applicant. The Test Invitation was issued on January 16. I wish good luck to all the applicants. :)

Unfortunately still waiting.

I'm also a Nov 2013 (family) applicant. Still waiting for the test invite. The progress I have seen for October 2013 applications seems promising. Hopefully the remainder of 2013 applicants will get the Test Invites soon.

If you go to the US Embassy (after taking an appointment) they can stamp your visa as "Cancelled Without Prejudice". You can even try to go to the nearest border post (either at the airport or at a land crossing) and explain them the situation, they might be able to cancel the Visa for you.
