Does anyone know which number to phone for visa-related enquiries in Pretoria? I received my COPR (confirmation of PR document) and the immigration visa in my passport. And I got my passport back in time for our trip to Canada this weekend! But now I'm wondering if I should use my immigration...

Do you know how it works if you require a visa to enter Canada? I know that in addition to the Confirmation of PR letter, you also get an immigration visa in your passport. I have both these things, but the immigration visa is valid for a single entry only. The reason this is a dilemma for me...

Thank you!

Thank you! I got the passport request today. I'm just unsure about how to complete a section on the Annex A form. It asks you to fill in the name, surname, height and eye colour for yourself and everyone accompanying you to Canada, but there's a space for your spouse's details. I'm the PA and...

I just saw that my CIC profile has been updated to say "Decision Made"! I also received a pre-arrival letter on Wednesday. Hope this is good news :-)

Hi there Did you check on GCKey whether the message "No medical necessary yet" has changed to "Medical results received" ... or even to "Medical passed"? The doctor electronically submitted my medical, so my status immediately updated to "Medical results received". And a few days later it...

That's great - congratulations!

T Thanks Chansa. It helps knowing I'm not the only one waiting :) The immigration consultant we saw before we applied said the whole process usually takes 3 - 4 months for South Africans, and I've seen some people say 6 months is a good average. I just can't help myself from checking the CIC...

Any idea how long it takes to go from Medical Passed to Decision Made?

Hi all I applied for an outland family class (spousal sponsorship) PR. Any idea how long it normally takes from application to PPR? Timeline: App received: 19 June 2017 AOR1: 19 July 2017 Schedule A & PPC: 20 July SA: 29 July App to VO: 4 Aug AOR2: 4 Aug Background check in progress: 20 Sep...

Hope you get yours soon too!

I received my medical request today

Finally received a request for medical today! Timeline: Applied: 19 June AOR1: 19 July Schedule A & PCC: 20 July SA: 29 July AOR2: 4 Aug Medical requested: 13 Sep

A few of us are still waiting for the medical requests. I think some visa offices (VOs) work differently from others. My VO is Pretoria.

I have a similar timeline and order of documents requested. I'm still waiting for the medical request. Are you still waiting as well?

A couple of people here have noted the same thing - that our applications are forwarded to the VO before we receive a medical request. I've submitted Sch A + PCC. Shortly after we received SA and my application was forwarded to my VO on 4 Aug. Still no medical request but I assume it will come soon.

S Received ours on the same day :)

My application was transferred to my local VO two weeks ago and I haven't received a request for medical yet. My local VO is Pretoria - I assume they follow the process in a slightly different order from the rest. Where is your local VO?

Hi there Same thing happened to me. I uploaded the PCC and Schedule A on 21 July. Although my application says that the documents have been uploaded successfully, my profile still says action required. I haven't received any messages since the request for my Schedule A and PCC so I don't know...

Hi there Merge all the files into a single PDF document and upload this one file.
