Hi, my application was accepted(Canada Post express delivery) on Nov 02, 2015 - how long is the typical time frame until I receive an official acknowledgement of receipt(in my email)? If anyone can recount the time frame from their own application(outland), it would be helpful. I am anxious to...

Make no mistake - I will be singing the praises of the application process, to finally have it behind me. The road has been long and hard. Thanks again.

Noted and appreciated - the post is fixed, with apologies. It has been a long, and stressful, few days finalizing the application(to say nothing of the year+ it took to prepare).

Hi, does anyone know if this will be a problem? I have already mailed the application to the Mississauga processing center. I know that there are different kinds of Spousal Sponsorship, so I thought it was important to specify: Family Class on the envelope. I did not write: Spousal, as I was...

I have heard that it is one year from the date of your medicals? Is this the day your medicals were assessed by the visa officer, or the date the information sheet was issued? The distinction is important, as my wife received her upfront medical in June, and I need to know if that...

Hi, I am on Disability Pension(ODSP), so on the Sponsorship Evaulation Form, what do I put under 'Net Income'? Do I put the yearly amount for my Disability Pension? Do I put zero? Or do I just ignore the question? Thanks.

Cannot read Taglish - please, can someone clarify? Do we need to label one photo(in each set, for each family member), or all 9? Salamat.

Yes, I have all the requirements to apply for his Citizenship certificate, but since he must be included on his mother's application(and I don't want him to be separated from his mother), it seems rather pointless. I am having problems because she has another child(from another father) who will...

They want the name, date of birth, and the signature of the applicants? Hello!? One of them is a two year old! How should we handle this? Dealing with a civilized country, one might suggest a reasonable solution - but reasonable solutions cannot be taken for granted in the Philippines...

Bump.

Hi, does someone on ODSP still need to submit the Option C print out? If so, how does one go about acquiring this? And on the Sponsorship Evaluation, where it asks for Net Personal Income - what would an ODSP recipient put here? Is disability considered income?(it is not taxable, after all)...

Hi, one of the requirements for the spousal sponsorship of my Filipino wife, is the *original* marriage certificate. But, in the Philippines, originals usually refer to NSO(National Statistics Office) certified *copies*. I am not sure where and *whom* will be assessing these requirements - a...

Hi, it all when fine - when I stressed(repeatedly) that this was an *upfront* medical exam, everything was OK, and they provided my wife with the necessary information form once they finished any follow-up tests they needed to do. St. Luke's will submit the results to the local visa office from...

Thanks. I was insistent, and everything is going according to procedure now. They only stressed that I bring a IMM1017 form if I have one. Of course, if I had one, it would not be an upfront medical, lol. But, it is done now. It is just important to clarify with the panel physician, that...

Hi, my wife underwent the upfront medical at the beginning of the month, but did not receive any proof of the examination. I was under the impression that she would receive something for me to submit with her application, from my prior correspondence with St. Luke's panel physician: Thank you...

Even the Panel Physicians request an IMM1017 form(I am assuming they mean one with personal data already added), which you CANNOT get unless you are already in the system(which we are not, since it is, again, PRE application). Unless they mean the IMM1017SCLE, which I can bring(and which, I...

Dear Minister. I am a Canadian citizen appealing for advocacy, or advice, from the minister(or someone in his office) concerning a matter of citizenship, in regards to my foreign born son. He was born in the Philippines a little more than one year ago, and is currently residing there...

Hi, I need advice regarding the citizenship certificate application of my son(my wife is making the application, while I am here in Canada). Here are the *official* requirements: 1. Completed Application for a Citizenship Certificate; 2. Original birth certificate which lists parents' names...

Then the relevant consideration is not her intended length of stay, but the fact that she is Filipino. But, I suspect you are right, that this is exactly what the visa officer will be thinking. So, I won't argue against the logic, as it is unproductive whether I agree or not. No, it doesn't...

The length of stay is not intended to show this, nor should it NEED to. That is why I have submitted *evidence* about her ties - her recently purchased house, and son whom she shares custody of(and will not be accompanying her). Is this really the profile of someone who intends an illegal...
