Why you requested it to earlier? any specific reason ? then I will apply also ;)
There is no specific reason but yes i would like to know how far the VO went into my file processing and it is the best way to see whats going on rather than email to CIC and ask the status of your process.

I guess you can order too and there is no harm on your application.

Good luck,

1 I usually takes 30 - 40 days to receive your gcms notes after your apply. U can get either by email or CD at your home address.

2. There is no harm on your application at all because during processing of your application, your file reviewed by office and put BF( bring forward date ) which means next date to review file and it could be 2 months after the last review. So when u order your GCMS notes your file reviewed before the BF date which is positive point.

Thanks

Hi Guys...Can anyone share the details to do medical checkup in Toronto, I live quite far from it so need to plan a little ahead. Appreciate any info you share. Would be interested knowing:
clinic locations, docs, booking appointments, how long it to get the appointment (busy?), how much time for the actual checkup etc.

Yesterday, I have sent an e-Mail to CIC to update my son renewal passport. But, there is no return response mail.

Is it normal or something wrong?
now-a-days no automatic reply... may be after few days you can follow up..

Can any one shed some light on this for me? i recently recieved an email from cic in response to an inquiry i made in june as to the whereabouts of my application, as it was not available online, it stares that my application has been sent on to the case processing center in Ottawa, does this mean it has passed the preliminary assessment?
this confuses me because it still shows "application received" on the online tracker and i have not been asked to go for a medical yet.
any light on the situation appreciated

Yes Initial preliminary document verification was done by Sydney team and now with Ottawa for further processing..Status says your application has been received by Ottawa office however your file is not yet opened for further examination otherwise you would see status as in process..
With concern to Medical, lucky April applicant might get first MR by end of October if Visa officer works with steady pace..

Guys.. Those who applied for BOWP, did you fill Schedule 1 form?

The one on CIC website, doesn't say "... made outside Canada".

just keep it simple. do not send unnecessary files that will confuse more instead of clarifying things.

Just to answer your question: NO

Hi guys,

It does not say that the photo must be recent. Can I submit a 1-year old photo?

Thanks.
