    Beirut FAM applicants forwarded to CPP-Ottawa

    Hey Ghinak, If you went that same day than I am pretty sure that you may have seen her there. In regards to that seminar, maybe the B file number is for the skilled workers program possibly because my file # also starts with an F; but in any case my wife didn't know about it. They did give her...

    Hey Ghinak. Thats exactly what happened to my wife as well. She got the passport request letter and submitted her passport March 9. Nothing was updated in ECAS until after we received the letter but then again the next day everything was updated. Its definitely a great feeling getting that...

    Hey BeirutJoe, Not sure if anyone will have much info to share regarding the fed skilled worker program. This board is about family/spousal sponsorships. I just checked and there is a forum for the fed skilled worker program and I am sure you will find a board for Beirut applicants. Best of luck

    Beirut - Spousal sponsorship - 2015

    It is soo nerve racking because I can almost feel like this process is over but its not. Its been 5 weeks now since she submitted her passport which is longer than the 30 days they said it would take. Is there any reason that it would take up to 2 months? Has anyone ever heard of a case...

    Hey Everyone. Hilda congratulations on receiving the golden email... Just a matter of time until you get that visa in your hands. That brings me to my question. Can anyone tell me how long after submitting the passport you can expect to hear from the VAC? My wife submitted her passport a...

    Based on what I know and my experience, they will review your file one step at a time. They will not go through the entire application and ask you in one email/letter to submit all the missing/required documents. As Mikey said, you cannot enter Canada without a valid medical. In the final...

    how long did it take you? Visa from Lebanon to Canada

    Sorry I should have corrected myself, it was an email they sent but in ECAS they refer to it as a letter. Just like the email they sent telling us our application has been sent to Beirut for processing.

    how long did it take you? Visa from Lebanon to Canada

    Thanks Natoula. Yes and I was actually quite surprised it took only 10 months, I was figuring on waiting at least 15 months. Like I said, it all depends how much you can prove that the relationship is genuine. If you have all the information they ask, I would say less than a year. Keep in...

    CdnandTrini you are right regarding the ECAS status updates. After my wife went to the Canada visa office to submit her passports, I checked the status of my application and low and behold, they have added the updates of her medical as well as the letter sent requesting she submit her passport...

    I cleared out some messages and freed up some space in my inbox. I didnt realize the capacity is roughly 4-5 msgs. Not sure I understand your message but I don't really think it matters. Maybe the initial process of when it is sent to Mississauga might be a quicker turnaround time for...

    how long did it take you? Visa from Lebanon to Canada

    Hey Natoula, I submitted my application back on June 2, 2014 and was received in Beirut July 23, 2014. I just received an email yesterday asking for my wife to submit her passport and 2 pictures as part of the final stage, essentially saying they have approved the application and will be...

    Thanks madman. Yes the VAC office in Verdun is where they requested her to go. I wont be getting my hopes up until she physically has the visa and her passport in her hands. If the case is she got accepted for a PR, then to all those still waiting and checking the CIC status update, they may...
