    Damascus/Spousal since Jan 2010 or late 2009

    Hello all, Thanks for your warm wishes and Happy New Year! I've been asked before on how I managed to get my wife over and my answer is : Visitor's Visa. I've been told before on this thread that chances are slim-to-none that a sponsored person could get a TRV. Most of the comments were based...

    Hello Rezan, I wonder as I've noticed that many of the memebers in this forum had submitted their RQ long after their applications were received by Damascus. Is this the norm?! In the meantime, mine or my wife's was requested 2 weeks after they started processing the application. Not sure if...

    Hi Rezan, Police Check on the Sponsored Person, right?! Well, if that's the case, in Jordan, they require 2 checks: once from the Intelligence Department and another from the main Police Department. Both were given to my wife and included in the application. Now, if the officials in Damascus...

    Damascus/Spousal since Jan 2010 or late 2009

    Hi Rezan, It's not what I meant actually! My case is not, by any means, more special than any of the cases discussed in this forum. What I meant was that in cases where the female sponsor is sponsoring the male, officials tend to scrutinized the case given the fact that many people are, in...

    Hi Eli, I feel bad for you, really. I think because you're sponsoring him from Iran has something to do with the length of waiting time. My understanding is that when the wife is sponsoring the husband, officials give the case a little more attention or scrutiny than if it was the opposite. I...

    Thanks Eli So, if that's the case, three of my close friends went through the same process and their spouses got the visa on average within 3.5 months. All three are Canadians and their wives are from Jordan. That's the reason why I thought it wouldn't take more than 4 months to get the Visa...

    Damascus/Spousal since Jan 2010 or late 2009

    Thanks Eli, What concerns me is the processing time line and what I mentioned in my post was that I'm making a bet that my wife's Visa will be issued by then (Dec. 27th, 2010). Based on this bet, I will be flying to Jordan to have the wedding ceremony. Now, the Damascus office...
