    Applying for visit visa after PR card has expired

    Thanks for the responses. Embassies in Pakistan aren't like elsewhere. It isn't that they can't be bothered, but that embassies are like fortresses that don't allow human contact. Even within the country things are done by post..so this is tricky. Applying for a travel document may be the best...

    Applying for visit visa after PR card has expired

    Also, I should mention they have no desire to fight it or try to renew PR. They simply want to obtain a visit visa.

    Applying for visit visa after PR card has expired

    Thanks for your response. Are you saying it is absolutely necessary to do this before applying for the visit visa? Also, I can't seem to find the form on the CIC website. Is there a form that can simply be sent along with the visit visa application? My parents are in Pakistan so some of these...

    Applying for visit visa after PR card has expired

    Hello, My family became permanent residents in 2005, but for personal reasons my parents were not able to make the move whereas my sister and I did (we are now citizens). My parents would like to apply for visit visas to visit us this summer. Their PR cards have expired, and naturally they...

    Roohina Sattar is terrible. Don't try finding her. The other option is MUCH better.

    Apart from the initial objection you received, your timeline is the same as my wife's. She received PPR a few days ago so hopefully you will get it soon as well.

    Some good news to share: My wife received PPR today. I can't believe this nightmare is almost over for us. I wouldn't wish this on anyone and hope you all are able to complete the process soon as well. Our timeline is: Applied: Sep 2010 File transfer: Oct 2010 Re-med: Nov 2011 Re-PCC, IMM...

    I hope so. Logic dictates the letter should be PPR but if there was actually anything logical in this process we would all be living with our spouses. By the way, CHC was definitely working today because my wife's online status changed today from 'application received' to 'in process'. I don't...

    Does anyone think this could be PPR letter? Your application is currently in process and is in queue for review by an immigration officer. A request letter was sent out to applicant on 20 March 2012 and we await reply to our request letter. The timeline is (wife case): Applied: Sept 2010...

    CHC, Islamabad Spouse Sponsorship Timeline 2009 -2010

    My wife received an email response today saying "a request letter was sent on March 20 and we await your response". It can't be PPR because through TCS it would have arrived already. But I can't imagine what they want now. We have already done remed, re-PCC, IMM etc. This is so frustrating. Her...
