I am very happy to report that finally we have received the request for the passport to be sent in as "the file has been approved and is now ready for visa issuance". This after almost 900 days and literally 60lbs of paperwork!! A huge big thank you to all who contributed to my various...

Hi ImmOfficer - thank you for the link I will be going through it. If anyone else has additional info or comments these are welcome. Our clock is at 851 days and counting.

Hi RobsLuv - you reply is very helpful - please could you supply a valid link to the Op02? I have tried to find it myself without success - is it still available? I would like to read more on this. Thanks in advance

Hi ImmOfficer - thanks for your reply. Yes the maths could not be simpler as you have phrased it - however perhaps it is the English that should be better phrased in the link I am reading. In the link I provided earlier -...

Hi PMM - thanks again for your reply. I am alittle confused by your reply. I wanted to know where you read that this particular charge "Assault with a weapon or causing bodily harm" attracted sentences of ten year or more. Your last reply actually supports what I think is correct - that...

HI PMM - thank you for your reply. From what I have found on the internet as per my link - the timeframe states a term not exceeding ten years. Where do you read that the sentence for this would have been ten years or more? In the file/transcript that we have in hand (we were able to get...

Hi All - I am really hoping that someone out there can shed some light on the situation we now face. A few months ago I joined the forum and started this thread - http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t19077.0.html . We emailed the London office a few days ago...

Hi Tara - I am glad to hear someone has had a good experience with the london office as I have not. What visa did you apply under? We applied for a conjugal in early 2007 - won the appeal in 2008 but are still waiting.

Hi Kitty - sorry to give you bad news - but we have been waiting since May/Jun 2007 - yes 2007 - for a conjugal partner sponsorship with a minor criminal offense. We were denied in 2008 on the basis they didnt accept the relationship - we appealed as we have been together over 5 years - and we...

Thank you Azadi so much for posting that letter - I have copied it and am sending it out to them today (we have been waiting 27 months now). I have used the same contact name shown - was your letter sent recently? I am hoping that that contact name is still valid.

Please could you provide the CSIS details - I didnt know you could write to them. We have been waiting 27 months now for approval and its so stressful!

My conjugal partner was able to enter Canada and he was given a TRP for a limited time - we are about to submit a application for an extension of this TRP as the sponsorship application (outland) is still in progress - 27 months now. Considering how long we have been waiting already I am...

Thanks so so much Emmy - I am today typing up a letter that I will fax to CAIPS to get this info!! We have been waiting 2 years for a conjugal sponsorship - I have explained our situation under the London Visa Office Entry. Our lawyer has never even mentioned this to us - yet we are so...

Just a question from a new member - what does CAIPS stand for?

Thanks for the reply. With regard to the category of conjugal partner - while i may not be harassed if I went to live with him in Ireland - the issue was that A - I could not live there legally as he was still married - sure I could have stayed on a 6 month visitor visa and kept renewing it but...

Hi All - I am really hoping someone here can help with comments on our situation. We applied in April 2007 for conjugal partner sponsorship in a outland application. My part of the sponsorship was approved and the file sent to the London office (i am a canadian citizen). At the same time we...
