Hello, I have a question what is the schedule A form?? I only received schedule 1 and they are asking me to complete schedule A? Can anyone help plz?
Here is schedule A sanoua.. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/imm5669E.pdf what is schedule 1 isnt that schedula A if so then the above link would work for you too yara1999--just print and fill it out! And yara1999 the RQ i've heard is the easiest thing to fill out just some questions about the sponsor where they live/work--can be done in 5 minutes.

Best of luck! All such great news from everyone!!

Btw, my husband landed on Friday. Immigration didn't keep him long, his flight landed at 7:15 and was out by 8-8:05 asked simple questions as who u coming to, what address, how much money you bringing with you--and they gave him a bag full of info and a form for him to fill out for his health card. They were very nice, they say welcome to Canada and you are on your way out :) We had such a great weekend with family and friends and went to the CN tower yesterday. Everyone, this nightmare does come to an end and then it feels sooo good, like it never happened--i am as light as a feather and everyone is in my prayers hope you all feel this! Keep the faith alive, keep positive :)))

Hello Tina85,
It is good to hear from you, I have few questions to complete your row on the chart if you don't mind:
- When was your application received by CIC?
- When did you get a letter to renew medical and RQ?
I have no idea about the security background check, but I hope it doesn't take long :)

Good Morning Everyone,

i havent been an active member of this forum but rather a silent one , my husband received this email today- we filed August 2011 , our file was transferred to damascus in Nov of 2011. My question is , the residency questionnaire is the same as of the sponsor questionnaire? and where can i find Updated Schedule 1 form ? i wish they provide a link to these forms so there is no confusion.

Dear Sir,

- What day in November 2011 the file was transferred?

hehehe nice one

It is funny Anoushka how we were all desperate for a bit of information, and then everybody got an email, and seriously our minds were taken off misery of the unknown, to at least expecting a new development very soon.
I have visited my wife twice after our wedding and I was going for a third time, and she has been encouraging me up until she got the email to renew medical, now she is like: "don't come anymore, just for when I get the visa, so you take me with you"
I know and I hope it is going to be a memory for all of us soon, and I hope when each one of us gets united with his life partner, we will pass by here and say goodbye and good luck to the ones who are just beginning the trip, because life goes on!
Good luck to us all ;D

As for the Schedula A and Schedule 1 forms:
- They are not the same: (Schedule A) has 12 questions, while (Schedule 1) has 16 questions
- They both have 4 pages each and almost same content.

Mabrook Joe,
And you know what man? never regret the past, everything happens for a reason!
I was calculating how long you have been waiting for this to happen, it is indeed longer than some of us, but again now the suffering is almost done for you, enjoy the moment and look forward to the future of you and your family, relocating to Canada isn't the end of the journey, it is rather the beginning, so good luck.
Please let me know when you get your wife's visa so I could update the chart and green your row ;D ;D ;D
I have put under comments: requested passport!

Thanks man
it"s my dream to relocate and go back to my home,,,i've been living in canada for almost 17 yrs,so going back is a happy moment for me,but my suffering is coming from knowing how good is the system for who live in canada and how bad it's when you step out,,,anyway good luck to all and happy life in canada.

dear Yass, you are right the attachements were included in the email, i looked at the email in my iphone and the attachements were not showing so i was freaking out lol. from this forum what is the estimated time after we submit all the paperwork , 2 or 3 months? what about an interview when do they ask for that?
to answer your questions- CIC Received
my application on August 8,2011 and it was transefered to Damascus on 10/27/2011 not November.

Yara,
Thanks for the dates, I have updated the chart.
As for the time frame, there is nothing written in stone, but the average timeline as per the CIC website is 17 months since the date the application was first received, but some took their visas before or after!!
But the common thing amongst all of our friends here in the page so far: non of them had an interview! which is good :D
