Good Morning All and Congrats to all who got their visa

I'm a Canadian citizen. I'm currently have a sponsorship application in place for my husband. Our visa office is Accra.

They request additional information from us in June 2013. We sent this information in August 2013. Our application was sent to Accra office on Aug 2012.
Here are some of the info they requested:
-Repay deportation fees (my husband bought his own ticket, so there was no fees to repay...we sent them proof)
-Police and RCMP clearance
-Bio page of passport

Since we sent the info, they didnt get back to us. Our lawyer sent them an email several times for update but they didnt reply.

Any Suggestions please???

Hi and welcome

This is the February thread for different VO's. Try here there is a Accra thread :http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/thread-for-acrra-ghana-applicants-t64640.0.html
There are more people there with Accra experience and they might have similar experience!

Good luck

Hello guys!

It's been a while since I went to visit this forums. It's been quite here lately hasn't it? I have a quick question for all filipino applicants that has already went thru the passport request stage. On what address did you guys sent you passport with the additional requested documents (if there were any)? In the email that CEM sent me on August 1st, there was 2 addresses written in there. Same building, same level, but the other one says "Visa Section" and the other one says "Family Class Section, Immigration Section". And in the letter there were no specific instructions on where to send the passport and the additional requested documents. My wife sent it to the "Family Class Section, Immigration Section" address. It's been more than 3 months, other march and april applicants have already landed in Canada, and some Feb. Applicants are still on the PPR stage so im kinda confused and worried. Any help will be much appreciated!

P.S.

Messenger, your daughter is an angel sir! Everytime I see her picture on FB, there's only one thing that goes to my head, "I am looking on a picture of a little angel that went down to earth to give some joy to people."..

I sent mine to the family class section as well and it got there fine. You might want to try order some GCMS notes and see what's going on with your file.

Hey DaveSav!
Nice to see you still watching over this thread even though you're done with the whole process! And that was a relief to hear. I was kinda getting a bit paranoid thinking that my wife might have sent it on the wrong address that's why we haven't heard anything from them. Did you received any email from CEM stating that they have received your documents and passport? I read something over their site that they wont be able to notify applicants after they have received the additional requested documents and passport. It's really bugging me for almost everyday thinking that we are already on the PPR stage since August 1st, but no news up until now. Did you received any email pertaining to the visa stamping on your passport? Any emails from CEM saying that your passport is all good and set to go?

The only email we received from them after sending in our passport was a request for a Singapore police clearance but no confirmation of the passport being received. Did you have any other outstanding documents they are waiting for or was everything sent with the PPR request?

I did end up emailing them a few weeks before our meds expiring asking them what date our meds expire and if they could extend them if the application isn't done by then. We 'magically' received the visa a few days later and they called us to pick it up. You could try do that as well, or even send them an email saying it's been a while and you are concerned about them receiving the passport, see if they can confirm they received it. They were able to confirm for us earlier in the process via email they had received our Lebanon police certificate when i asked for an update.

Dear kazuma.

Nice to see you back here indeed. Thank you very much for your kind works and for liking my little one! She is definitely a cuttie pie like all babies. And I am very proud of her!
Hope your apps are coming ok. Vienna our VO is playing us for fool. It seems a long wait yet

Hi Kazuma!

We have the same situation, my husband sent his passport as long as with his other requested documents last August in this address:


Family Class Section
Immigration Section
Canadian Embassy, Manila
Level 6, Tower 2, RCBC Plaza
6819 Ayala Avenue
Makati City 1200
Philippines


We were also worried that they didn't receive it because until now we don't have any news and his medical is already expired. We tried to email them then they confirmed the documents were received & they extended my husband's medical expiration to Feb. 4, 2014.

Yeah, I did emailed them too to notify them about the expiration date of the meds of my wife last September. Never heard anything from them. I just received an automated email saying that they have received my email. Other than that, nothing else. This is really bugging me up to the bones. I have been checking my ECAS almost everyday, 4x a day, and its still says "Application Received".

Try to email them again, put URGENT expired medical on the subject, make sure to include your wife's file number and other important information that they may need. Also try to order GCMS notes, that's what I'm planning to do if I don't hear any news from them until next week.

Same here, still application received & I feel frustrated too every time I check my ECAS..Let's just pray & be positive that we'll receive the good news soon!

So I thought I would update everyone. I got DM on November 22nd, and I'm still waiting for the COPR. Really hoping it comes in the next two weeks because my Medical runs out on February 5th.
