Hey,

wanted to know since one has asked abt a visit visa. Is it possible for a wife to visit her hubby in canada on a visit visa? since they cant always get vacation to visit in pk?
As loner bhai said, unless you have a strong cover letter from your employer and/or university mentioning that you will be returning back to attend after vacation, and have strong ties to go back to and have lots of travel history you are likely to get a visit visa; otherwise forget it because 95% chance is that it will be rejected main reason being is that you are Pakistani.

P.S: They have just introduced 10 Years multiple entry visit VISA for India. I am just posting this for people who like comparing India vs Pakistan. Just trying to show how well advanced India is and what their reputation is worldwide!

An immigrant from Poland who was married to an American barged into the police station out of breath. “My wife, she try to kill me” he stammered. “Are you absolutely sure?” questioned the police officer. “Of course I sure” he countered insulted “you think I dumb, look what I found in her purse” he said pulling a bottle out of his pocket, “look it says polish remover!” ;D

there is an error in your message...you say you have the boarding pass from Karachi to Toronto, then you're saying you do not have the boarding pass from Pakistan to Toronto. Pakistan or Karachi is the same thing. So what is it that you don't have for?

Submit all the copies that you have. The entry and exit stamps on the passport should show that you visited and left Pakistan.

You should be getting Re-med request soon. Many members here got re-med request within couple of weeks of recieving these forms. But there have been cases when the re-med request after months. It all depends on your case and the immigration officer looking at your file

As suggested, submit everything you have to further support your case, your cant bring back the boarding passes you have lost so whatever you can make sure to include them. Also, make sure to print the new IMM forms from CIC website, they have updated all the forms as of July 2011 or else they will send them back and will ask you to refill them again.

It doesn't matter if there are any changes or not. If you are sending a form dated after the update, then you must send the updated form or else it will be returned.

wes, this is the message your referring to right?
Note: As of July 18, 2011, applicants for Permanent Residence are asked to complete the new Generic Application Form for Canada (IMM 0008). Applicants are encouraged to complete the form electronically and validate the information to generate 2D barcodes before printing. To ensure you have the most recent application form, please use the link to the application form below.

so before july 18 is all good hopefully.........

I am sure there is a window, because people start preparing these forms atleast a month in advance and they understand that as well but if it's like two months or something they will send them back. You sent them two weeks ago, and the update was sometimes in July so I think you should be ok.
