Hello all! Hoping to have some insight given this excellent post by OP. I am completing a supervisa application for my elderly mother, she last visited more than 10 years ago. She is recently widowed and we are unable to travel to visit her in our home country. I have a couple of questions. Any...

If she is in Canada when she gets her passport request, there is an option to mail the passport for visa stamping and CoPR within Canada. All of the instructions and the address to which you send it to will be in the PPR email/message. In my husband's, at the bottom of the PPR letter were...

Congratulations to you and your husband! And all the best for the future! ❤️ :)

Well it's all done :D my husband received his passport and CoPR today, VAC received it on Thursday from Vienna (took exactly a week to process) and since Friday was a holiday he got it delivered today. He'll be landing on Wednesday, I can hardly believe this is real!! Thanks everyone for all of...

Hi everyone. My husband got his passport back today along with the COPR!! The whole thing is finally almost over for us, he'll be landing on Wednesday at Ottawa airport! Thank you to everyone for your advice and words of encouragement, this forum has really been a great source of information...

Thanks Rina! That makes a lot of sense :)

Hi again everyone! I don't know if any of you have noticed the changes to GCKey? Just logged into my husband's account today and the portal looks a bit different, easier to navigate actually. My husband has submitted his passport to the VAC in Sarajevo to be sent to Vienna for visa stamping...

This is just anecdotal, but a friend of mine had sent photos of wrong dimensions with her application to Mississauga, they did not return her package for this but did ask her to submit the corrected photos later on in the process. Hope it's the same for you! If in doubt I think it's better to...

Thank you! :) I'm very excited can't believe it's finally coming to an end lol and don't worry I'm sure you'll hear something soon! It's very odd how they do things...you can't really predict anything. I expected we'd have to wait ages after the pre-arrival letter, it's not uniform at all when...

Haha oh totally all day today I’ve been thinking is it possible that it’s done?? I have to admit I did a little victory dance when my husband told me he got the email :D He’s going to be sending his passport on Monday, and I think we’ll wait until it gets back because we want to book his...

Congrats Rina! My husband also got his PPR this morning and will be arriving in 2 weeks (as long as the passport submission is quick and easy)! Yay! I wish you all the best, I know this whole process was super stressful for you! Good luck to your husband in Canada and your new life together :)

My husband received the passport request letter this morning from Vienna. We had complete silence from December 7th until he got a pre-arrival services letter on May 25 (last Friday), then everything just moved quickly from then on. Full timeline in signature.

Thanks so much! Also thank you for being such a positive member on this forum :) you always make sure to congratulate everyone and I think that's wonderful! Best of luck with your application! You're not far behind! edit: that's a lot of exclamation marks! But I'm excited! :D

We have decision made on ECAS today!! No PPR yet or changes in GCkey

Pre-arrival received today from Vienna VO, the full timeline is in the signature!

Just received pre arrival services letter in GCkey. Timeline is in signature :)

Uff guys, I hope Vienna’s not slowing down again :( I remember reading somewhere VOs try to work through as many apps as possible before the summer influx of short-term visas. Really hope they haven’t been hit with those yet. We’re hoping we hear something soon as we’re past the 7th month now...

October applicant...also waiting for pre-arrival. Hopefully Vienna has good news for us soon!

Same thing was in our notes. But I read in the GCMS guides on this forum that if you see Eligibility: Not Started it may actually be a good thing and they have looked at your eligibility already. If they had concerns an agent in Mississauga would have already noted that an additional check would...

Hey everyone! So we ordered GCMS notes on March 9th, and they arrived exactly one month later, that's yesterday April 9th. I didn't expect to see anything in the notes to be honest but was curious if any actual notes were made on the file. What we've been able to deduce is that the application...
