Id like to share our experience with this as well. We made a dedicated trip to Canada to submit the documents for PR renewal in country, as is required in the application. We went almost as soon as the 9-month-before-expiry renewal window opened. The application was thusly signed and dated in...

Rossei, thank you for your response. I really appreciate it +1

A couple of quick questions, I am considering submitting a super visa application for my mother and law to come to Canada for the birth of our first child. I applied for a TRV for her a little over a month ago before my wife became a PR. It was rejected, but I believe I can address some of the...

Hi Everyone, My wife is due to give birth to our first child in the middle of May. We would really like for her mother to be here for the big day, however we have encountered some challenges obtaining a visa for her. We applied for a TRV a little more than a month ago. My wife was an inland PR...

Sorry to belabor the point. Echoing MisterBob's remark, please don't spam the threads. Everyone else works hard to keep the relevant information where it belongs and to keep the house clean. Starting a new thread affords you the benefit exposure on the main FC page, as Ponga remarked. People...

Thanks sbakhour. Does anyone else out there have experience with submitting a sworn affidavit with a sponsorship letter? I'm hoping that this is what the Bogota VO needs to tip the scales in our favour. I know that CIC says that you don't NEED one for a TRV application, but I'm having trouble...

Hi everyone, I recently applied for a visitor visa for my mother in law to come to Canada for the birth of our daughter. The first application was rejected, probably for a couple of distinct reasons, one of which that there was not a lot of money in her account, and I only sent a copy of a T4...

I'm terribly sorry to hear of your loss If your sister is in Canada, she could call the call centre at 1-888-242-2100 to ask about the status of the change on the application. If I remember correctly, the parent and grandparent application is submitted in Canada, so there may be fewer issues...

This should be a warning to everyone who has gone past the application date on the CIC website without hearing much, or anything. They are asking a lot of people for additional documents and personally, I was given a 3 month deadline for proof of cohabitation and ongoing relationship. If you...

I called the call centre two weeks after I sent in our additional documents, it was sent by courier so I had confirmation that it was delivered to CPC-M on a certain date. The agent told me that day that the package had not been entered into their system, and that sometimes it can take up to a...

April 2, Calgary. Strangely the DM letter came a short time after the interview request letter, we got them both yesterday.

I would send an email as soon as possible to the office on your landing appointment letter with this exact info, that you aren't available due to exams on those two days. For this, they will reschedule you. Congrats

I recently received a phone call from one of the ATIP agents at CIC, related to a different access to information request. At the end of our conversation I asked why it takes 30 days to get GCMS notes. She told me that there is a team dedicated to GCMS, and a team responsible for complex cases...

Congratulations!

I would recommend making yourself available if at all possible. From what I've heard from other members, it's not as easy as picking a tee time at the golf course. If you do reschedule and MISS that appointment due to some unforeseen circumstance, you could really be putting this whole wait in...

Today we got our landing appointment letter, even before the DM correspondence!!! One step closer, I can hardly believe it after the agonizing wait AND having to do the follow up package. It took CIC a while but they finally started working again. To everyone else who is waiting, hang in...

Sorry, that was supposed to be September 21, 2013

Just got AIP and SA together!!! It took almost exactly a month between sending our additional information package and receiving AIP!! The call centre agents told me before that it can take up to a month for the packages to get to the right person. ...almost there now :)

...And for your viewing pleasure, Chris Alexander's weak response to a pointed question about inland sponsorship today in the house of commons (thanks to the producers of "The Backlog" Documentary for this). Starts at 38:17 http://www.cpac.ca/en/programs/question-period/episodes/37551661/ If...

My spouse is from a country where the police checks are done by a third party, you don't do the police check directly through the police force. So here's my question, does ECAS ever show that the police checks were received? Ours shows medicals received but makes no mention of the police...
