Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if any experts could please help me answer my question below.

I want to sponsor my husband from Afghanistan, I know we have to go through Islamabad which will now take about 31 months.

What if we apply from Islamabad now and then he moves to India after a few months, is it possible to change the office to India so it would take less time. Because if he goes to India now he will have to live there for one full year before we could send this application request.

Please help as I can't find any information anywhere. :'(

Salam,

I haven't heard about a case in which the visa office was Islamabad and then it got transferred to INDIA office, your husband needs to have one year Indian Visa Stamp on his passport before the MISSISSAUGA office is convinced that you husband's case can be sent to New Delhi office, When my wife applied for me this was the exact dilemma we were facing and because we took plenty of time planning our application and taking PRE and POST wedding photos, Skype Pictures before our wedding and after our wedding, pre wedding emails and post wedding emails and other stuff, we got Re-medical and Passport request from Islamabad office within a year, so do your homework and try to collect as much proof as you can before applying, Good Luck!

Hey guys, was just wondering where should I send additional info? My case is in Ottawa, can I just email them or mail them(if yes, whats the address)?. I visited my wife in Pakistan and stayed there for 4 months.
Bro try to send additional information to CHC-I as soon as possible, that is what I did, they need to have the documents before the visa officer in OTTAWA or Islamabad office begins the initial review of your application,

Postal Address is:

Canadian High Commission
Diplomatic Enclave

asalaam malikum,

Laghmani Bro how many forms they sent you to fill after the PPR?


Only the supplementry forms for afghan nationals, 14 pages in total. questions for the applicant after the age of 18 which asks the applicant about any groups, military, taliban, any members of your family in the army or groups, such as khad, etc and if you had travel history outside afghanistan. and a few questions about your sponsor as well. basically seems part of the end of the backround check.

Thanks,
laghmani

It sucks that processing time has been increased to 31 months.

My wife case is in background check for the last 2 months. anybody else is going through same check recently.

Just to let you know guys. Islamabad is also on rotating strike as they didn't respond to my recent inquiry from MP.

May Allah bring us together and shower blessing on us. Ameen

Salam All,

I sponsored my wife who is in Pakistan last year in October. Wondering if anyone here can help me get a better understanding.

My application timelines are:
Application received: Nov 5, 2012
Sponsor approval Letter received: Dec 14, 2012
Original Nikah Nama/Wife's original degree returned: July 31st, 2013 (as the letter stated copies were kept and originals were not needed) - this came from Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa (CPP-O)

My question is:

What stage is my application at?
What follows next?
How much longer am I looking at from a processing stand point?


Any help/clarification/guidance would be extremely appreciated!
 

in love with my hubby

Hi, Sundus have you tried sending Islamabad any supporting documents to waive your interview or GCMS notes? Any updates?
Thank you
