I am about to send our docs to my hubby next week. He will pay the fees online in Canada. I hope he won't encounter any problem in paying online...

Thanks a lot Messenger for all your help...We're done with our med last June 10. Hopefully by next week my hubby could send our docs to Mississauga...

God bless us all...

Hi abscott

The sooner the better they say. Make sure you have signed all points on your part and tell your husband to do the same and double check them. The payment is easy he will have no problem what so ever!

Good luck dear
Tom

Hello everyone! It's been a long while since I've been online!

My husband and I are here in Canada...I'm Canadian, he's Italian. I'm working hard and we are waiting and waiting for something from Rome....

I just wanted to ask you all what your online statuses say? So far, ours has said "Application Received" for the past 3 months. It worries me a bit...does it mean that they haven't even LOOKED at his application? I thought by now it should say "In Progress" or something of the like. Maybe I'm just worrying about nothing. Anyway, I see that most people are still waiting, too, so we don't feel to bad, but we would just like SOME kind of update...otherwise, we feel a bit lost!

I hope everyone is doing well! Thanks in advance!

That's normal - my family's has said "application received" since October. It probably won't change until just before the visa is issued.

Hey Everyone!!! I emailed the Sydney office since there still had been no change in ecas it still says " Application recieved" , asking if it was in process and if the Sydney office was on strike they replied

"Dear Mr Foster

Thank you for your sponsor's e-mail of 13 June 2013. Your application is in the processing queue. In due course, once it has been reviewed by a Visa Officer we will be in further contact to advise the next stage of processing.

Yours faithfully

Immigration Section'

So they ignored the strike question, hopefully it doesnt take too long as the meds expire in January!!!!

thanks Tom...as always for all your help...

Please help me with this. My 23 y/o son has enrolled now in College but 1 yr course only at Canadian Hotel & Tourism Institute a branch of a school in Surrey here in the Philippines. We included him to be accompanying to Canada and we'll be paying $550 for him. Under what dependent type will he be?

thanks a lot...

Thanks Kuudir2! I was so so happy last night that I couldn't even fall asleep! And I even forgot to say, I got the passport back, with the PR visa on it!!!! So it's not a PPR for me, it's a VISA!! I'm already in Canada, so I'll just drive across the broad and come back then I'll be all set!
The entire process for me only took less than 4 months, despite the fact that I waited a month to send out the passport! Unbeliveable!
