Amman - Spousal Since January 2012 or Late 2010

[feverdreams]

how did you get in as a visitor ? did you apply for a visitors visa ?

I think he had applied at the time that they had allowed Syrian residents who had spouses in Canada to apply for a visa due to the conditions in Syria. The Visa's at that time were issues within days. So I assume that is how he got his Visa

well i didn't plan to apply to a visitor visa, but once i head that my application is not in Damascus as i was told by my wife, i did.
I applied just before the closure of the Canadian embassy in Damascus. For humanitarian cause, Canada gave visa for Syrian residents in just one day at that time.
I've been in Canada twice before, maybe that was a factor too in this as i was granted the visa while have pr application in progress.

visiting Canada is great and always been specially with ur loved one. staying one month spending ur budget and then travel back to where u work
its very expensive specially when I earned my income in Syria and currencies gap is humungous
I already applied to renew my visiting visa
to get a work permit i need a job offer and its difficult already for my field of work
i am a house husband now
i really feel like i am burden on my wife cause she goes to work and i watch tv cus i dont want to apply to study at college which would triple my high spending already

Also I have heard that if your in Canada and applied for a PR outside Canada, when you finally get your PR visa, you have to exit and reenter Canada to make it official ... have you heard this as well ?
that might happen. i called the cic many times (good thing not the same agent always answering the phone )
i've been told, once its done, i will get ppr just like everyone of you guys and when i receive my passport with pr visa on, they will figure what to do.
its not gonna be a problem, specially i live few miles from the US border and when i get a pr visa getting to the us is as easy as it is.

In many ways you are a very lucky man. Inshallah your PR will arrive soon, and you can put this whole experience behind you.

I just contacted the Visa office in Amman, and of course the lady wouldn't transfer me to the Visa section. Second time I called, I was transferred and asked to make sure if my applicant can move from Damascus to Amman due to the violence happening and the lady said "He should email them, he should email them" then I replied "We emailed about 10 times with no reply...and again I got an answer of "He should email them, he should email them"..then I hung up...useless "B....." I'm so fed up with this retarded system.

Why don't you get your spouse to apply for a visitor visa, like iwatchtv ? .. he got accepted

My husband was in the same situation and I didnt get any help. However, I spoke to my lawyer and she said in his case a visitor visa is his best deal and he will recieve a reply within a week due to the violence in syria! You just have to fill the application with an invitation letter. Indicate in the invitation letter that you will support him and that you are worried for his safety!

The only reason I didnt continue with the visitor visa was because it got too dangerous where my husband lived and he returned to Iraq!

 

[iwatchtv]

if received an invitation letter from spouse and applies for a visitor visa. in this case, its likely to get it because of humanitarian grounds vs the fact that its less likely for already applies pr to get a visitor visa.
however, you got nothing to lose but the fees because it doesn't affect you pr application at all.
good to hear from you guys

As i observe. The Iranian applications had been transferred to Ankara and it was quite faster than Amman's. Maybe because the immigration visa office was there already. I hope as now the immigration office is settled in Amman, it would be as fast as Ankara's.
hope for the best good people

Ankara has the fastest processing time for the middle east, 6 months. They are processing PR's for 5 countries (Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, Turkey, Turkmenistan) in addition they also process business categories (only) for the following : Cyprus, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria.

I only hope Amman speeds up to their pace, since they deal with less
Inshallah

Well, august is sort of vacation month in Canada.
like everybody i talk to says i am going camping this august.
Hope that visa officers in Amman don't like camping much, so can process more applications
