you need to translate the stamps on your passport and bring your notice of assessments.
Hi,
is there a date age for the stamps translations? I mean, if I have my stamps translated a year a go, can I still use this translation or they require a most recent translation?
thanks,

I had two passports, and I brought them and the copy of the bio pages. Be ready to briefly explain the travel stamps on the passports. The interview was very brief after all.

Good luck

Here's something interesting. We are now able to check the application status of our kids. We even tried last month to check online on their applications but they didn't have any (it said "no ecas available for applicants under 18 years old" and my kids are 10 and 5). Interesting part is, their processing date is different from our's. Our processing start date is 22nd Oct 2013 but their's is 11th Dec 2013 and this date (11th Dec) is close to when our file got transferred to Scarborough local office.
