US H1B / Green Card Holder married to Indian Citizen takes less than 1 month to get a dependent visa - I know this from personal experience.
AUS PR / Citizen married to Indian Citizen dependant visa is on arrival provided the proof of marriage. Rest all process takes longer (not sure exact time)
What Canada is doing is torture...
This forum is great to get everyone together, but we should do something standing together so that we and future generations dont have to face this is what I feel. We can change the system if we stand together.
Not sure how many of you are familiar with arranged marriages, there are lot of families in arranged marriage not preferring canada matches just for this reason and preferring US and AUS matches only.
I mean its not just one person's problem. We are all facing it, and I find this very surprising that no one has made an attempt to do something about this issue. I have been in Canada for 15 years so far, and been hearing this all through out, I thought eventually some one will do something about it. It was not until I went through the same situation that I felt the pain and I think if we do a joint letter with all signatures on it and send a copy to embassy, PM office and Minister of Immigration in Ottawa atleast make them hear our voice... some of you might be more experienced than me in these skills, let me know we can discuss offline. DM me anyone who is interested in taking this further
