Since its been a bit over a year since you applied, go ahead and apply for notes. See what's going on and then make a decision of sending additional docs...

A member on the other forum posted this joke. (Found it funny)


Understanding CHC Islamabad:
A man could not wait for his spousal sponsorship visa for Canada and finally made a boat to sail to Canada but the boat capsized in the sea before he reached to his destination. He was lucky that the waves cast him up on a desert island.
After months of loneliness, a beautiful coloured bottle washed up on the beach. The man picked it up and caressed it, admiring its beauty, until a genie came out in a puff of smoke.
“Thank you for releasing me from my prison,” the genie said. “I grant you any wish you like. I can't do magic, but I'm very strong and wise.”
“Wonderful,” the man said. “Build me a bridge so I can get to Canada so I can meet my wife.”
“Oh, come on,” the genie said. “Do you have any idea what a massive engineering adventurous accomplishment that would be? There's not enough steel or stone in the world for that. I'm just a simple genie. Wish for something realistic.”
“Okay then,” the man said. “I wish to understand the mind of people working in Canadian embassy in Islamabad.”
“Alright,” said the genie, sighing. “ What kind of bridge, Did you want a suspension bridge, cable bridge, or arch bridge?”

Actually i am planning to go to Pakistan. So i thought to prepare things before so i can send additional docs. Does it somehow make negative affect if i sent them?

Agreed, however don't stay for too long if you are sponsoring your family member because as I mentioned in my post earlier they CAN possibly object that you have no intention of settling back in Canada.

When sponsering an individual, there is a limit. Family member was a citizen stayed a bit over 6 months with child in pakistan. Immigration and Health Canada, gave them a hard time upon return.

Rest is your choice...

i dont mean this completely on you (As i am quoting you)...

no-body here knows for sure where there file is from 2012 cases that is... all of it is pure speculation... we thgt it was in isl, than the whole ott thing exploded, and then we thgt its in isl and not etc etc... we all have to wait with no sure fire certainty and assume where our file is... ott or isl... eventually it will be in isl... and processed out of there not ott... ott itself is back logged big time from buffalo, so dont expect anything to come out of there soon...

safest bet is a TON of Patience and then some more after getting your stage 1 cleared... mostly i have seen cases getting done around 15-16 months of time on average... wait for that time from the date you got the letter/email saying your file has been transfered whether to isl/ott (or where ever you believe it is at, i believe mine is at mars :) )... if in that time you dont hear nothing, apply for gcms notes and see whats happening to your case... then you should be more keen about how things are... if your file is processed b4 that congratz, but you have to wait atleast that long... we all are unfortunately... nothing can be done about it but wait or pray...

it is a very *censored word*ty situation, we are all stuck in between on our lives, cant make decisions that need to be made or could have been made very easily otherwise... but we have to live with this bitter pill... in one way or another find a way to put up with it... or you will lose your sanity...

so best thing is drop by once a while and take a peek at how are things rolling... i see sep/oct/nov 2011 cases getting remeds or ppr's at the moment mine is in may 2012 so no point fretting about it right now... gotta wait till may 2012 cases are hearing news and then if it goes to july or august 2012 and i dont see anything on my file i will panic, till then just waiting...
Perfect.
