Hi Red Jeans,

It is a wife case. Received in ISL in Oct 2010, Re-med Nov 2010, Re-Pcc+IMM Jan 2011. It is quite a standard case, we haven't received any objections at all. I thought we were one of the lucky ones when we got Re-Med but then 2 months later we got a request for new PCC + IMM forms and are just waiting since then. A bit strange to get re-med before re-PCC + IMM, isn't it? Usually goes the other way around.

Considering it is husband case and it was sent to interview, your case has been processed really fast. Inshallah the rest will go fast too. Most comments I have read about interviews is that, it adds at least one more year to your time line. I am really surprised on how fast they ask your husband to do the interview.

You don't need to include anyone in "dependents" section as both your kid has a canadian passport and your wife is a permanent resident.

Also, regarding your wife's residency requirements read the article below:

http://www.settlement.org/sys/faqs_detail.asp?faq_id=4000181

Its not true that your wife can't visit Pakistan but she can't stay for an extended period of time.

Dear Senior Members,

i got an email from embassy that your file is in process and currently background checks are being conducted.
My question is that is this the time for background checks? As my case is on final stage. Kindly see my time line and documents requested and tell me if they just send this email by default or by mistake?

Thanks.
