Your mistake may have been doing your medical too early. We received the passport request 7 days after it went in process. 7 days later we had the visa in the passport. However, we didn't have to get the medical redone. The key is that you have to land within one year of the date you did your...

Just a note about submitting passports - we WERE NOT allowed to submit in person. The PPR letter did not list that as an option. I emailed them to ask if we could and they said no. We send by Fedex instead. The passport got there on the 28th and they emailed me back on the 30th saying that it...

I received my spouse's PPR today by email. They must have sent it to me because we submitted the authorization of a representative document naming me as the representative. We went "in process" exactly one week ago, on November 16th. Seems pretty fast. Singapore received our application package...

It's too long of a process for me to re-hash it out here. There is plenty of information on this site and on CIC's site on how to do it. Just search "order GCMS" or something like that on this site or "ATIP" on CIC's site. Basically it is a print-out from their computer system that has all of...

Our application moved to "In Process" on November 16th. Recent GCMS notes indicate "Recommend WAV" under Eligibility notes, along with positive comments regarding our relationship. Hopefully this means a PPR soon, or perhaps a letter requesting additional documents. I will post again when...

Thanks for the suggestion, but this field is on everyone's GCMS notes. It's a standard data label in the system.

This field is in the GCMS notes under the "FAMILY CLASS SPONSORSHIP" section. Does anyone know what "CSC" stands for? I've scoured the web but can't find anything.

Listen buddy, I was making a joke about it not being long in comparison to the long immigration wait times we all have to endure. Don't jump to conclusions when you're not capable of 4th grade comprehension in your second language. Keep your political crap out of this forum. I don't appreciate...

Here is an audit that was done of the Singapore Immigration Program in October 2010. Some of the info is a little out of date, but in the immigration world 22 months is not all that long. Pretty interesting stuff. Especially their organizational chart. The long-suffering Bangladesh applicants...

It's actually down to 20 months now. They just haven't updated the website yet (still showing to December 31, 2011). That's for 80% of the cases, too. The latest full figures for Singapore (to March 31, 2012) are as follows: 20% 30% 50% 70% 80% Total Cases Singapore - RPC 7 9...

These are for the 12 months up to March 31, 2012. Measured in number of months from the time the overseas processing centre receives the application from Mississauga. For example, 50% of the cases were processed in x months, while 80% of the cases were processed in y months. The figure y would...

Here is my take on NS, coming from the perspective of someone with very deep roots in the province (9th generation) but having also spent significant time in many other Canadian provinces and other countries. Others may disagree, but this is my generalized point-of-view. The culture here is...

These stats are from April 8, 2012 and don't include parents or grandparents (just spouses and children). They respresent the number of people sitting in the various queues at that point in time. Selection Decision Final Decision Total ALL OFFICES 46,930 14,544 61,474 ALL OVERSEAS...

Sounds like he fled the abuse of his new Canadian spouse. Smart move. From what I can tell the abuse continues to this day. Like others have said, her pushing this into the public eye and pressuring the politicians is turning her mistake into a headache for the rest of us who have to spend hours...

We received almost the exact same message on a recent inquiry. "Paper Screening Stage" seems to be a catch-all phrase for "sitting in a very large pile waiting to be opened for the first time." It is nice that they replied back so quickly, though. We appreciated that aspect of it.

These are for the last 12 months and exclude withdrawals and bulk refusals resulting from legislation. It's just the percentage of permanent resident applications that were processed and refused. I ordered them from highest percentage of refusals to lowest. These include all PRV types. I may...

The job situation in Nova Scotia is not good. Unless you have friends or family here or a lot of experience I would look elsewhere.

Thanks. So before that happened there was no address listed in ECAS? This is how my spouse's address appears: House Number Street Name City, Province Canada Postal Code

Could you please describe your progression of address changes in ECAS, from the very beginning? My spouse's (applicant) address initially showed "C/O <My Name>", followed by my Canadian address. After the stage 1 sponsorship was approved the "C/O <My Name>" line disappeared, but my Canadian...
