Do you believe our spouses can come maybe?
This has nothing to do with our cases. Extended family members are grandparents, uncles, aunts ...etc. (different story)

We absolutely have no problem to travel and reunite with our spouses and kids.
Our main issue is when will the passports return?!!! also we've missed the chance to travel through Turkey that would be longer trips and over priced flights.

what's happening in Turkey my friend booked his ticket and going through Turkey October 10
what I know beother is turkey has restructuring with Iraq for the flight so I think it's hard for now to find a trip from Iraq to Turkey , it's weird because I hear one of my friend just travel today from Erbil to Turkey . Also I found some flight through pegasus airlines .

Flights were available on system all the time, even when Turkish airlines were not conducting flights to Erbil. You can book your flight and pay for it online, but when the flight gets cancelled, you won't get refunded. A lot of people have bad experience about Turkish Airlines in such situations. Please be careful!

The only route that works for us now is Qatar Airways (Erbil-Doha-London-Toronto); don't think about transiting through US.

Well, that is another issue! I know we don't have good choices at this time but there should be a way! Don't forget that we have Immigration Visa type and our final destination to travel to is Canada. See below exemptions:

Exemptions
You don’t need a visa if you have one of the following:

  • a visa for Canada, New Zealand, Australia or the USA (this can be used for travel to any country)
  • a residence permit issued by Australia or New Zealand
  • a common format residence permit issued by an European Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland
  • a resident permit issued by Canada after 28 June 2002

Indeed! today is day 36 my passport is under process (stamping visa and CoPR)!
We should have sent it on our own via DHL direct to Amma visa office. This VAC Erbil failed to send the passports in the first week of September. According to the online tracking status our passports reached in September 24. So technically it is only 10 days they work on our visas.

Some friends managed to do that and they have already got their passports back.

Yes of course and it was negative
Was the test a requirement of the airline? My husband is flying Turkish airlines out of Queen Alia, and Turkish does not require the covid test, just a temperature test. I can't find any information saying that the Canadian gov requires a covid test either!
