Hi everyone, its been a while since I posted but I have been reading up on everyone's progress regularly and updating the spreadsheet behind the scenes, so Congratulations to everyone who has received good news.

I'm busy studying for the exams in Canada right now as I have less than 2 months of prep time remaining.

Now on to the most important point: I need to hand over the ownership of the spreadsheet to someone reliable, so anyone who is interested, please step forward. If there is more than one person may be we can have a vote for a couple of days. If no one volunteers than I will keep ownership but may not be able to update as much as I try to do now.

Finally, all the best to everyone waiting. If anyone needs to contact me at any time please feel free to PM me or else I'll be monitoring the forum but more silently.

Oh wow !!! :)

I am also planning to go to Saudi Arabia soon for some 6-8 months. So, should I request the VO to change my VO to London :( or will it be ok to stick to NDVO, provided they allow it?

I will inform my VO about my updates, once I am ready to move there. How people send their passport when visiting other countries on work permit? is it safe & allowed? or any other way to submit the Passport?

-Shadab

Applicant can choose VO of either his/her country(Citizen) or the country where he/she resides ....but for country of residence..u should prove that u r allowed(visa) to stay there for a period of 1 year or more.

So if u going to saudi with vIsa which allows u to stay for 1 yr or more then u can change ur VO to London or stick to NDVO....If ur Visa is valid for 1yr..but if ur not allowed to stay their for 1yr..or say ur just allowed to stay for 6 months then ur not eligibe for changing VO.

Now that ur file is in PROCESS and NDVO is working on March appicants I suggest u not to change ur VO.

And if ur going to saudi on work permit...or ur leaving ur current Job then u have to inform VO abt it.

Thanks for the nomination Canadestin but I think it would be better to vote after people volunteer. I don't want anyone to feel forced into taking the ownership. So any volunteers before a vote?

Dear all,

I have received my PP today with Visa.

Adminstrator kindly update my status..

Hello Friends,

Just to update, my representative requested for address change to my VO, which they changed within 48 hours after they received request from my representative they simply asked my representative reason for changing address...

My representative also sent a CSE which we are expecting by end of this month...My status is still RBVO

What's up with the spreadsheet?
I have just tried to view it and I received a message saying editing it might harm my computer.
It is also in Arabic.
When I downloaded it to use the filters. I noticed that all the names are in the wrong order and not in application date order as they were before.

Has anyone got any idea how I can fix this, please?

This is only valid when you first apply to determine your VO

So if u going to saudi with vIsa which allows u to stay for 1 yr or more then u can change ur VO to London or stick to NDVO....If ur Visa is valid for 1yr..but if ur not allowed to stay their for 1yr..or say ur just allowed to stay for 6 months then ur not eligibe for changing VO. Not applicable, once VO has been determined

Now that ur file is in PROCESS and NDVO is working on March appicants I suggest u not to change ur VO.

And if ur going to saudi on work permit...or ur leaving ur current Job then u have to inform VO abt it.Completely agree

@ Moabbasi : You cannot change your VO once it has been decided INITIALLY. You may request the VO but cannot ASK to change the VO. This power lies only with VO under "PROGRAM INTEGRITY".

@ Canadestin , Pl check the OP-6 Mannual Section 9.7 : FILE TRANSFERS
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op06-eng.pdf


I quote:

"Visa offices are not required to transfer files for any other reasons. Such reasons include cases of
applicants who comply with subsection R11(1) for the specified visa office, at the time the
application is received at the CIO, but subsequently leave the territory of the specified visa office.
In these cases, the original visa office should proceed with a final determination of eligibility and
process the application if eligible. The visa office should not transfer the file to another visa office
unless the transfer is warranted for program integrity reasons. Leaving a visa office's territory
alone, does not warrant a file transfer.
In this case, if an applicant requests a file transfer, the visa
office should inform them that the application will not be transferred and that they are required to
submit a complete application to the visa office originally specified within the 120-day deadline
allotted by the CIO."

@ Canadestin, no hard feelings......I hope you understand.

Hi Shadab,

You must be aware that Indian PP cannot be send/receive out/in of Indian Territory...it is Illegal. A lot of discussions has already been made on this topic.

The option for you to send receive your PP from Saudi is to authorise someone (friend/family member) with proper papers. Entemaria has recently done this for his family by providing Authorization papers to his friend. Or you may come physically to India to get it stamped....the problem with this option is you would not know how long your PP would remain with VO.

Some applicants have successfully used (I do not endorse) Couriers...but if caught at Customs you may be subjected to heavy fines...Rs. 50,0000, 2 yr imprisonment or both. Also remember, the address should be Indian...Vo will not send out PP outside India.
