Thank you so much for the confirmation!

hello all you lovelies! So my husband sent in his passport and he received his PR entry visa and his COPR today. :D Unfortunately the address is my old address (despite me having updated in in ECAS AGES AGO). I looked on the forum and it appears that this is a piece of information that may be...

Man it has been a process. So it basically took a year from our submission. We expected 7 months! and then with the Islamabad cases arriving about two weeks after we submitted, I expected that we would be waiting until January or February at least. Best of luck to everyone in this journey. It...

Hi All! I am so pleased! We just received the passport request today! We are Finally on our way. 52 weeks after submission! WAHOOO!

Hi Andrew, we've been In Process for the primary applicant in ECAS since March 27... So, so slow....

Hi All! @Andrew-brit and @SchnookoLoly. Just a little update. it has been a while from me We received correspondence asking for our police certificate (which we had applied for, but hadn't received in time to send with our application) on August 21. We sent that along, but decided to be risky...

Welcome AndyB! Have a safe flight!

I agree with BigredMoose, If they haven't been concerned so far, then there is nothing to be concerned about. However you absolutely MUST inform CIC of the change in status (you're married now). They provided the information of where to send it in in you sponsor approval letter. That should...

So 107 days later, we received SA. We were a Dec 2nd application and received SA on March 19th. I had to contact the CIC call centre after the average processing time was up (95 days at the time, I hear it's closer to 65 now), and place a query. I then called a week later to check up on it and...

Hi RK19, YOu may or may not get AOR for either the first or second part of the process. Clearly you didn't get AOR before you received SA, but that's not a problem since you received SA, which is the most important part. They are now transferring your file to the new VO and to received AOR from...

Hi Tranjini, I spoke with them and the agent was very kind, she explained that there were no notes on my file (which is weird for a delayed file) and she said that they had 3 months to respond to my initial query. Fortunately, I received AOR today. Wooot! Steady she goes!

That seems good ot me (who knows about them) but that is FANTASTIC news! Bravo! Ontariobound!!

Hi Tranjini, I called, they sent a notice to the office. not sure how much that will help. I tried calling again today (4 days later) and can't get through. I'll try again on Monday I suppose...

I called CIC today. No decision on my SA, but the IO is placing a request that my application be looked at. Looks like we got forgotten in teh shuffle. Which it had looked like a month ago *sigh* And so it goes on...

Hi Guys, I'm beginning to get concerned. It's been 97 days and people are receiving SA all over the place, we haven't even received initial contact (our was received Dec 2nd) Is it time for me to call them and ask what is up? I know they have my file in their system because of some other...

Hi Everyone, So I spoke to a CIC this morning about the police check that is within three months of our application date, but older than that at this point because we haven't got an SA letter or UCI#. The Agent told me it is up to the discretion of the Visa office and officer to decide whether...

Yikes, OntarioBound, I'm sorry you have such an unfortunate scenario! I hope that it is as we hope and we can send the one that is valid from our application submission date, but it does not seem promising. The CIC person at the call centre certainly was unsympathetic to my situation and told me...

Personally, my concern with having more than about 2 photos per page is that the faces of the people in the photograph won't be clear, especially with large group shots to show family members attending weddings, engagement parties and the like. I'm sure ultimately it doesn't really matter, but...

Yes this is the frustrating part, we receive the PCC just two weeks after submitting the application. I contacted them to see if I could send it along and they refused to accept it because they hadn't opened my application yet. Grr. so it looks like we are off to Dublin again and another $200...

I have a question in this vein as well: My husband and I received our police records check about 1 month after our application was submitted (it is a difficult country to get record checks from). We now have the certificate, but have not yet received SA. We have been holding on to the...
