visa is valid as long as the passport is. If passport is expired, you need to apply a new via.

It is nobody's job to answer your why questions. It is YOUR job to explain your why questions to VO. Remember that! If you don't like the process, you can withdraw anytime you want. It is not a RIGHT for your wife to immigrate to Canada just because she marries to a Canadian citizen, it is a...

Going to the court will be directly against your intent to complete the process as soon as possible. You probably need to wait for 3-5 years before the hearing could be started. And, it is not even possible at this stage, they have not reached their decision (assuming that decision is...

you don't need to worry how they are to perform the background check, that is their job :)

Yes. It took 14 months all together.

Don't get upset. There is nothing you or anybody could do during SS stage. You just wait until it is complete. It took us over 7 months to complete. It is really case by case issue that you cannot compare timeline with other people. Patience is the virtue.

60% of the applicants completed SS in 9 months but there are about 10% took more than 2 years. It is really case by case.

Expect SS will take around 9 months.

approximately 2 months. No way to check status. Pay attention to your incoming email from IRCC for any missing information, e.g., rejected photo etc.

Congratulations to your baby boy!

Thank you. The weather is actually pretty nice here in Ottawa and I already feel the fall in the air;) We have a good amount of beers stocked:D

Thank you. We spent 28k (RMB) with Hainan Airlines, one way ticket, Beijing->Toronto->Ottawa. It seems there are plenty tickets with this price, we just booked tickets 7 days before departure. That is insanely expensive!:mad:

In our case, HKVO will send you Pre-arrival after they believe your relationship is genuine and then start BGC. BGC can take from a few days to several years and is case by case. In our case, it took a bit over 7 months.

That is normal from HKVO, we got the same request. You have to fill up everything since you were 18, not just past 10 years and courier it back to HKVO.

My wife landed last Tuesday (7.28), everything was smooth except the flight was delayed for 2 hours. CBSA, IRCC and customs at the airport are very friendly. For those who are still concerned about travel restriction, I call tell you that those are only problems created in your head and not real...
