Hi,

My wife (sponsor) and I have been at this process since last year and only a few days ago I recieved an email from the CHC in Accra that “Your Immigrant Visa(s) appear ready to be issued, if there has been no change in your family configuration. If there have been any changes, please contact our office before proceeding”

I have been required to send my passport and documentation with 15 days using either DHL or VFS. Which have you used in the past?

Also the last bit of the email states to specify details of all accompanying family members including myself. Can you clarify if I need to include my wife? She is my sponsor and will not be accompanying me to Canada as she is already in Canada.

I've also been asked to sending my passport photographs (2) and that of my family members which will be used for the PR cards. Again, I'm i right in believing that my wife's photograph is not required as she already has a PR card.

Thanks for your help

Yes you are correct, they do not require your wife's (sponosor) details or photos' for her.

They want details of anyone else that was included in the PR application that will be accompanying you to Canada (children, etc).

Thanks RYIT. Cleared up everything. Wish I had stumble upon this forum months ago! Would have made my waiting time less stressful as one would have been able to discuss with people who are going through this or have passed through this process.

I hope I can be of help to others with my experience.

AOR is acknowledgment of receipt (when the received application), SA is sponsorship approval
