I seriously think there is a little chance for the lad to get a visa. This is the norm of countries like US for giving visitor visa i.e. leave one person behind which ensures the family wont permanently settle there.

So the only possibility i can think of is, when the guy himself secures e.g. admission at a good college or university in canada. No simple means of temporary resident visas in my opinion.

Thank you bro for your kind help.

I applied my spouse trv visa in june07 2013. Any idea how long it takes to process the application.

Official website says it takes 40 working days on the average.

do you guys think applying online and paper application time line differs?

 

[fkl]

Yes, definitely online applications are processed much faster. You can take a look at the following spread sheet for student visa applications from pakistan for Sep 2013. A lot of it has been discussed in a relevant thread on this forum too.

At least getting to the medical stage is remarkably faster i.e. for online applicants with no ambiguities, it at times took just 2-3 days to get medical call, where as for paper based applicants it was much longer.

Basically CIC islamabad after doing basic completion check on your application, scans all docs and uploads into their system. Doing this manually takes time, where as there is no such thing when you apply online.

Also, if there is a mistake in your application i.e. a doc missing or an additional requirement, you would know right at the point of application. Otherwise in case of paper submission, it is possible (happened with many people including myself) that an additional form was required, hence your application was incomplete, and was lying dormant for months in the embassy. It was only returned unprocessed when you asked about its status and had to start all over again.

This does not happen in online option.

Lastly, when applying on paper it is a mandatory requirement to submit a good number of originals including passport. In case of online application, you only submit scanned copies, and even passport is only requested latter, when it is almost confirmed that you will get visa.

I think there is some issue in your browser or adobe reader. What is version of adobe reader installed in your system.
TRV forms are only supported by Adobe reader 8.1 or higher.

You are needlessly worried. Schedule 1 Form (IMM5257_B) DOES NOT HAVE A BAR CODE PAGE. It is the IMM5257E (Application for temporary resident visa) form or any other main form such as work permit application or student visa application, which generates bar codes.

Just for your satisfaction, i have a valid submitted application in the embassy which includes 5 schedule 1 forms for myself and family (and my application is filed and i have a file number i.e. there is no mistake in the application) and i checked with the local copies saved on my computer.

The only possible issue with adobe is that the embassy docs require adobe version 8 or higher and you cannot use them in the 'in browser (chrome, IE) ' tab. You just need to download them locally and open with adobe and i believe you are already doing that.

Just fill, validate and submit schedule 1.
