Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask something and would really appreciate if anyone would answer me... especially those who are done with their remedical. My wife got a call from CHC Islamabad right now and the person was inquiring if she has done her remedical or not. She received her remedical request on 3rd may and got an appointment on 23rd may. We sentthe remedical receipt proof to Isl a few days after the remedical and when I emailed them the tracking number of the medical receipt and some added contact proofs and asked them if they have received it or not, they confirmed that they have. My wife told the guy on the fone that IOM sent out the results last wednesday to India. He said okay and that it takes 3-4 weeks to come from INDIA and he just wanted to confirm if she has done her remedical or not. So can anyone tell me what his phone call mean? Is it normal or something unusual? I was just worried. Thankyou

Its normal brother i also got the call from CHC-isb caller just wanted to confirm if i done my medical or not i said yes... caller said thats good :) jahan tak mera andaza hai wo hamri files ko follow up karnai say pehlay confirm karna chahty hain k hum nai un ki requirements pori ki hain ya nahin otherwise wo follow nahin karty sirf is liye and its totally normal

Yes allhumdulillah I am enjoying it and am looking forward to the day I get to take my car with flowers to the airport haha :D but I am kidding about the closet I am giving him one whole closet to himself since I have 2 walk ins so I won't be mean to him (yet) but when my saas comes she is bringing me more clothes so I might have to steal some of his room laterr lol.

Well your husband must not be complaining after waiting so long to get to be with you im sure even the 20% makes him happy ;D

Jazakillah khair sis for the duas gave you +1, everytime u write to me ill give you one ;D and you are right its good to see peoples experiences when landing, speaking of which when your hubby landed how was his experience at the airport?

Hi Rackeya sister. Yes they will accept your marriage, but it may take a bit longer for them to proceed your application and also please make sure you send them phn bill or any other proof very often which shows you are serious and happy with your relation as they may think that marriage at age 15 could be a forced marriage without your consent and razamandi.

I apologizes in advance by saying above, but sister last year there was an article published in news paper. Richard Kurk a famous immigration lawyers conduct a documentry interview with CHC on the procedure and problems they are facing.Beside many reasons CHC said; Polygammy,forced marriages,first cousons marriage and under age marriages are very common with them and they need extra time to review and validate all the information.

thanks alot!
 
Assalam alaikum,
Hope every1z fine... i hope visas are issued or about to be issued INSHALLAH n ameen..
I have some tips to offer for those who are coming here soon INSHALLAH.. I geuss every1 probably know these things but just in case..

-It helps that you search for jobs while u r in Pakistan... now a days the job situation is pretty slow over here..
Some great job sites are:
www.monster.ca
www.kijijji.ca
www.indeed.com
www.google.com

-It may take some time to get your own field of work but stay hopefull, keep searching and applying for jobs online or through recruiting agencies (search in your area, go to the ones close by and register with them). Contact your prospective employer and send them your updated and proofread resume and a cover letter.
Bring all your educational documents along with your references and recommendation letters from ur past/current employers and professors.


-If you plan on pursuing your education further or enrolling in uni/colleges here, search for Canadian universities/colleges on google. Look for the admission requirements...Contact the desired program advisers through email if you have any inquiries. Again make sure to bring all your educational documents if this is what you are interested in.

-Incase you are stuck and can't find employment.. I would strongly recommend to get admissions in colleges or universities for upgrading urself as jobs in IT for instance, may require programs u have no experience of. So short-term studies to stay upto date, does make a difference.

-Prepare yourself for G1 driving license beforehand. This site will help you for G1:
http://www.carsaga.com/driving-test/ontario-g1-driving-test/
keep in mind its for Ontario residence.. if u plan on going to another province just type G1 test preparation and ur province name and hopefully something will come up.

Don't forget to bring your old driving license please. The more years of experience you have on there, the better! Your will pay less insurance if you add up that experience while registering for G1 Licence.


FOR GIRLS:
- What household/kitchen items to pack/bring wen coming here...?
My personal experience ...
If you are goin to settle in Ontario and to be more specific in Toronto/Mississauga area.. trust me everything u need from Pakistan is here... u just have to find those pakistani/indian stores in Toronto and Mississauga area.. from cutlery to bedsheets everythingz available.. prices are reasonable but then again this could be subjective..
bring green-tea lol if u like to drink it. :P its hard to get the pakistani onez here.. and some nice kameez/shalwar or kurta type stuff i geuss.. u will need all summer, winter, spring material clothings...
If you are bringing your jewelry make sure to bring the receipts for that.. they charge you for that on the air-port.

GOOD LUCK .. u all are in my prayers :)

Ali_Shah I gave you +1. Btw, my wife got the re-medical letter on 3rd may, she went to Dr. Roohina Sattar and they gave her a date of 26th MAY. My wife explained them that CIC-I gave us 30 days timeline and since the letter was issued on 27th APRIL, 30 days will be over on 27th May. They said oh we cant do anything etc etc. But after persistent insisting they asked her to come on 19th May and then again on 23rd May for the second half of re-medical. Which I found to be very ridiculous. So she went to IOM, and they also gave her a date of 23rd May bcoz the lady doctor was gone for 1 week vacation. The environment was a lot better here plus they send documents faster then Dr.Roohina Sattar so she decided to go with IOM. anyways how long do you guys think I can EXPECT a ppr for my wife after their call?

Yep my wife tried aswell, and they said thats the best they can do. She would still get 6 days after her appointment when the letter was dated for re-request so I think it should be ok. And we will send them an email the same night when she gets the medical done and will also send the hard copy via TCS as a proof, so I don't see it being a problem.
 
People who are facing problems with re-med dates should request on the spot and tell them that you have received your re-med doc late and you need to send it as soon as possible. They consider that and always give you an earlier date.

I tried the same trick and it worked :) . I think you guys should try it too!!
