Hi,

I am on a Business visa at the moment which was issued earlier this year and now i am gathering documents for PR which i will get in 3-5 months after submitting my documents INSHALLAH.
I am sponsored by employer so thats why it will be processed on priority, normally if someone apply from offshore without employer or state sponsorship it takes 18 months on average.

Cheers

Hi Safa,

As vo has asked you for the additional documents it means that they are working on your case, vo must have opened your case on 8 th OCT but vo sometimes don't take any action on BFD if there are documents still outstanding or they have not received any information from other resources, in this situation they put another BFD date. So in your case I believe your checks are still on since you have recently send your PCC so they will send you medical request once your police checks are completed.

Cheers
Saki

Dear Saki ,

I have gone thru this web site and found it very helpfull.

i have a question to ask, if u cud spare some time to answer this then it will be very nice of u. i had applied for canad immigration thru a consultant in dubai, i made the draft dated 01 dec 2007, and gave my documents to consultant in the same month. i received the file # from High commision of canada on 11 mar 2008, but the immigration section has stamped the date as 05 mar 2008 i feel this is the date of sending the file # from london office. and the receipt for receiving the money was dated 29 feb 2008.

since then i heard nothing from them, and my consultant has been saying that its delayed for indefinite time. i m an accountant by profesion but when i applied at that time there was noproffesion list so it didnt matter, and i was wondering about the buffer date of 27 feb 2008 and where do i fall, my consultant has said that i m ok but the case is delayed. i wanted yr opinion.

Kind regards

Hanif

Hi

Dont worry about the dates thats not a big issue they have put the date when they have received it rather than the date they send it but you dont have to worry about that. You fall under old applicants so your consultants is right the delay is long but it wont be much longer now i believe as i ahve seen some applicants from 2008 getting medical request and visa this year so you are next in line.

Cheers

Bro documents would make case more stronger as you have direct relationship but i dont know about your uncle how you are related to him so its depends on the relationship.

Relatives in Canada:
 You or your accompanying spouse or common-law partner has a relative, i.e., parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, child of a parent, (sibling), child of a grandparent, (aunt/uncle), or grandchild of a parent, (niece or nephew), who lives in Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
