Hi Guys,

I was checking "http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/apply-where.asp#u" link and found that the FSW applications are being sent to Abu Dhabi office for UAE applicants. Earlier it was London, so does it mean that CIC is trying to speed up the process by assigning local VO?

Regards,
Sarvesh
This applies for FSW under EE effective from Jan 1st 2015.

Hello,
Need urgent help!
I will be landing Canada next week and I have issue with proof of funds.
No one one in UAE(banks and exchange house) are issuing travelers chq and DD in Canadian dollars.

I am Carrying currency currency (cash) approx $ CAD 10000.
Since I have to show POF around 22k.
Please advise on balance amount.
Which bank do you have your account with? You can ask them to issue you a DD payable in the province where you intend to land in Canada and subsequently open an account. Alternatively, try to contact the Scotiabank rep office in DIFC (contact details can be taken from their website). They can help you set up the account and advise you on how to transfer the money in to this account.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Tima69

Hi Guys

Hope you guys are doing great. l had sent an email to LVO regarding my application as i didnt receive any update since 17th Nov-2014.
they replied me as below

" Thank you for your email.
Your application is currently in a queue awaiting review. Should any further information or documentation be required we will contact you.
Kind Regards, "


Can you please advise what they mean by this as PCC,RPRF,Medicals,PPR1 and sch A form all submitted back on 10th nov-2014 and medicals updated on ecas on 4th nov-2014.
What they mean by Review after all is done.Is this normal because its almost 2 months since medicals and RPRF fees.

It SIMPLY means to just wait for 2 weeks for a decision on your application.

Why she'd mentioned your Philippines address in her application, if you are employed in UAE?
Either she needs to inform CIC about this change of address or if you have already received email from CIC to send your own application kit to them then write your current address.
