Do you mind post the URL where you shared about your vistor visa experience ? I was trying to find your post but no luck.lorrein said:BTW I read so many people in other forums saying that is almost impossible to get a visitor visa while you wait for your PR. Well, I got my visitor visa and my visitor record, I can stay here and even go in and out of the country. I just submitted a well done application and voilà! If you are planning to do the same I already shared in another post what I did
I would suggest that you start the process soon (if you can do your first month waiting for the appointment while travelling, would be ideal), you would only lose 2-3 months on the lifespan of your passport, but ensure you have coverage once the passport has been requested for the PR visa.lorrein said:Hello everyone!
Long time without check the forum!
I have some questions: My passport it's gonna expire on February 2016
Some VO do not give AOR2, the next step is once you In Process on ECAS, that is when you know your file is being worked on and then from there, hopefully a decision made and the Landing papers to follow, right now all you can do is wait, and wait and maybe wait so more lol.daaca said:
Has anyone contacted CIC to ask if they have physically posted their application from Mississauga to the VO. CIC told me they still havent sent mine.jamsham12 said:
Id figure within a month, the file should be transferred to the VO, but then again if Medical results are received is shown on ECAS, does that mean it was updated my Missassauga or the VO, if its the visa office then I would assume they have received your file.realismsleeve said:
My medical is received but application hasn't been by the VO, i was approved a month ago, the CIC agent was not clear but I think they said it has not yet been posted to my VO and I was SA approved 1 month ago.Some people have AOR 2 already so I am not sure why some are posted and some not, maybe it is done by geographical location. I expect a wait for it to be processed at the VO but I expect Mississauga to post it sooner than this.jamsham12 said:
Those CIC call centre agents are the most incompetent people i have ever come across.realismsleeve said:
Optimum word is "Call Center".. Meaning hired by contract, Out sourced, Not government employees. They only have minimal information at their disposal.You call with a question, there is script for that lol. Unfortunately call back with the same question expect a different answer because it was interpreted differently and they used a different script to answer from.jamsham12 said:
I left my call more confused than when I started, I was told the wrong SA approval date and my question wasn't answered. I guess it is the luck of the draw how competent the staff is who answers your call.Christoph100 said:
