Those photographs in Pakistan don't know anything :S this piss me off
These people no longer in Pakistan ::)
Way to easy to blame other people bud, if it was important who ever got the snaps should have checked themselves.

I think we were screwed either way. Ottawa gave us hope, however slowly we started realizing its the same story just and different begining.

So someone in the CPP-Ottawa thread just got a response from Ottawa regarding the processing times:


Application Received Date Review Date* By what date can you expect to receive the next update from CPP-O?

before 1 September 2011 On or before 28 February 2013 By 28 February 2013
1 September – 30 November 2011 On or before 31 March 2013 By 31 March 2013
1 December – 28 February 2012 On or before 31 May 2013 By 31 May 2013
1 March – 31 May 2012 On or before 31 August 2013 By 31 August 2013
... after 1 June 2012 After 31 August 2013 After 31 August 2013

So these guys are just working on files which were transferred to them before Sep 2011...
So this means we are looking at atleast 19 months before our files even get opened by CPP-Ottawa, not to mention the processing time beyond that.
It seems CPP-Ottawa is the worst thing that could have happnd to the CIC-I applicants, we would have been better off if our files went to Islamabad!

Guys, can anyone tell me where in Islamabad I can get the Urdu Nikkah Nama translated? Even though I have an english one as well which we signed at our Nikkah but the regional checklist asks for an Urdu Nikkah Nama. Any input is appreciated.

Asponsor
If you already have the English version [we only had the English version] then send it over as it is. There is no need for it to be attested, we did send the original Nikah Nama + Original Marriage certificate from Nadra.

I got my stuff translated & notorized from F8 markaz:
Office#2-3, Block#14-E 051-2262946,051-2850911,051-2853630,051-2856358
F8 Markaz, Ayub Market

I just received all paper from my Wife today and will going to send the application very soon.

But I have a little issue, the pictures she sent (PP size) I just checked and measure them and the size from Chin to Crown is not between 25 to 30 mm but 35 mm :( (full size is ok 35mm x 45mm) Those photographs in Pakistan don't know anything :S this piss me off, Is this ok to send like this ? or I risk to get all my file back because of this ? Has anyone had this issue before ? did you guys check this Chin to Crown size ?

Also some of the forms my wife signed and dated it in blue (all other info filled is printed in black) Will this cause any problem ?

Thanks for your help :)

Honestly speaking I feel as if Ottawa is a lost cause so there is no point even worrying about anything at this point. Just stop thinking about it and sit back. Plan as many trips as you can for Pakistan cuz we are definitely in for a long ride. I am just keeping myself busy so I don't have to think about this crap. I will be going for my one year anniversary .. These moments don't come again so just enjoy the time you can with your spouse. It sucks but we can't control anything.

Dear all - it has been 1 month since I ordered GCMS notes. Do they usually deliver them in one month or is it normal to be delayed? Do you know how I can follow up with them on these?

Friends,
I am already a Federal Skilled Worker applicant under FSW1 and waiting for Medical. Now, I am married with a Canadian PR. Please suggest me should I wait for Medical or I should apply under family sponsorship too? If I choose family sponsor, does it delay my Medicals under Federal Skilled Worker??
