Assalamualaikum,

Today, I received an e-mail from CIC-M regarding, stating my spouse(wife) application is accepted and the file forwarded to Islamabad.
Now my question is, how long it will take I hear anything form CHC- Islamabad?
and why I can't check my online status with UCI #? (should I put my last name or my wife's last name?)

Thank you,

W.Salam,

Thats good atleast your first stage is approved. Currently it is taking anywhere from 9-12 months for their first request from Islamabad so all you can do now is paitiently wait for their letter. UCI# is something new they have introced in July try it with your information first and it should show your first stage approval, and for your spouse it might not work yet because her file might not have been created yet in Islamabad.

i think she is bluffing...imm forms are good for 1 year...and it hasn't been 1 year since her AOR...then how can CHC ask her to refill imm forms...they would send her PPR directly...

I know prayers work...but then we have to be practical as well...like in my case....even if my wife gets the visa lets say in April...she wont be arriving till July/August because its her final semester.

We don't know if its true or not. But I am going to take it as a good sign for the rest of us. I am happy for her if she did get the request. Sooner or later we will get the request as well InshaAllah.

yakeen you muje bhi nahi aa raha..........lakin if it's true then it's a very good sign for us 2011 applicants.......
i think we should wait till next month to see if more 2011 people get these requests.......

May be then some Calgary people will be able to help you out as I am unaware about the agents there. I am in Edmonton so I either go to Choice Travels or Multiculture Travels.
 
I applied on the 27th of May in Mississauga, and my application was sent to Islamabad on the 15th of July.

This was complete marriage, not just nikah.

So far no update, the waiting game continues.

Just wanted to publish my timeline for other's benefit.
 
Has anyone here tried to apply for a visit visa, after applying for immigration, and successfully received it?

I am thinking of doing so for my wife, but everyone I speak to tells me this is just not possible, it will absolutely get refused.

Any comments?

I read about one member getting a visit visa while his case was in process, don't remember their name. It is listed in Humpakwatankaylog's spreadsheet of cases.

My file was transferred to Islamabad in June and last week wife applied for visitor visa. So I am waiting but I have read over here that 3 or 4 people did get the visa. Please check the "Visitor" under "Temporary Entry Topics" in this forum
