I know lots of people who fight everyday but still can't live without eachother. I have never seen any hubby wife who never had a fight. If there exists any hubby wife (fight proof), I believe they are not human they are Angels lolzzz It's all about patience level Sum have it more sum have it less
of course!
Like I mentioned above you fight for those that you love the most.
but what upsets me about those who think that fighting more often is okay
I don't agree with the idea of fighting everyday and having the thought that after a while it
will go away.. if one side is taking too much of stress and let it go.. then you never know when
the relationship will collapse..

I am sure you all understand my point cause a relationship with too much arguments doesn't last long.
why would one want to live with someone who you have to fight with everyday?

I'm not sure yet, it's something I have to experience.. me & my hubby fight almost everyday
on silly things because of the distance, but when we were together we were like 2 doves living in harmony lolzzz
I do sometimes enjoy our fights too lolzzzz maybe because I know it's nothing serious and I don't take it to the next level.
Living in Pakistan without spouse and this long process can easily make people in Pakistan lose their patience sumtimes (+ everyone
around them asking about the visa :S)
but if my hubby once here starts fighting with me everyday lolzzz I'll throw a bucket of cold water on him everytime, to cool his nerves down.
We'll have lots of mopping to do lolzzzz

I need help. Has anyone on this forum know or have completed a Canadian Passport for their child (abroad). Because on the application for section 4 it says to provide certificate of canadian citizenship (original) and to provide the number and date of issue. How did that work out or what should I do. I thought they wont give you citizenship certificate until close to a yr? But I heard you can still get a Canadian Passport as long as you have applied for the citizenship proof? What would I fill out in section 4 then?

I also forgot to mention but I need URGENT HELP FROM PAKISTANIS ON THIS FORUM.

CHC-Islamabad has sent me a letter in regards to my child's citizenship certificate application.

It says Original Birth Certificate (from government office) for child and Original Bay Form or Family Registration Form.

Can someone help me I dont know what these are. My son was born in Pakistan but none of his parents are Pakistani. Is the Birth Certificate issued by the Hospital with the back of the certificate stamped and attested by many people acceptable or is there another birth certificate I have to get? I live in Peshawar if that helps.

Also what is a bay form or family registration form. Is that for only Pakistanis because this is what CHC-Islamabad is asking of me

I just found this forum and so glad I did. I'm sponsoring my husband who is in Pakistan (back when Processing time was still 26 months). Since lots of you here are experienced in the process, I wanted to ask a few opinions.

I submitted my application in November 2011 myself, made sure everything was complete, sent original documents of my husband and all photos, etc. About 2 weeks later, I got a phonecall from CIC asking to confirm my annual income. Thank god I had a copy of all the documents I sent and told them the exact figure. They told me on the spot that it has been approved in Missisauga now. My status became "In Process"

In January 2012, I got an email from CIC stating that they had received my application in November. 3 Days after that email, I got a letter "decision made" and the letter said that I had met the requirements for eligibility as a sponsor and that my file had been forwarded to the Islamabad High Commision Visa office.

I sat still and hung on tight. January 2013 came and I still heard nothing, so I called up the mayor and had a case worker there to help me figure out where it is. She gathered info and told me it was in CPP Ottawa.

1- Now it has been almost 14 months and I have not received a single message or anything from CIC. I was looking into the ATIP and Privacy Request where we can request info but I don't know which one to request my info under...the ATIP act or the Privacy Act? And what kind of info do they give you?

2- Also is this normal to hear so much in the first few months and not hear anything back for a very long time?

3- Does anyone here have their files in CPP Ottawa? Do you think they take longer than Islamabad or shorter time?

4- If I have a slight address change (municipality decided to add a word before my street name), should I update online or call...do you think calling will get them to pick up my file and be like "oh there is this file too" or they just get angry that they have to change my address slightly on everything?

Thanks so much in advance guys!!

Welcome to the forum!
I applied in March 2012, almost 4 months after you did, to sponsor my husband but got decision made 4 months later in July 2012. So, I am happy to see how fast they transferred your file.

Yes it is absolutely normal not to hear anything for such a long time. I hate it but its the fact!

I don't think there is any harm in updating your address. I am not sure whether to call or email but please call the call center and speak to an agent about this.

I have not ordered the notes myself but I am planning to order them by July this year if I don't hear anything. Maybe other members can answer your question about how to order notes. Good luck....
