Hello mates, i need to ask about change in my employment. 20 days ago i have switched to a new organization and havent contacted LVO yet. However, i will contact them shortly.

My new employer will not be ready to issue me a reference letter. The only document i can send to lvo is my business card and my ceo business card along with offer letter.

Input needed.

B.P is of no importance, dont worry. They only have concerns on contagious diseases / high risk diseases like Cancer, T.B, Polio, AIDS, etc. (May Allah Save us from these diseases)

UPDATE: PP REQUEST

I am FSW applicant residing in Pakistan. LVO being my visa office. Yesterday I was asked to submit passports to Canada Visa Office, Islamabad but specifically directed me to use vfsglobal. So today I submitted my passports via Gerry's in Lahore. Has anyone else done so?
The guy there told me the visas should be stamped in 2 wks but was surprised to hear I was an FSW applicant as they usually get other types of applicants.

Actually my first medical was done in sept, delayed intentionally but completed in feburary because of addition of newborn to our family.

I reckon this is probably a new system to speed up the process.

Congratulations!

hello!

Just want to ask what is the best way to bring your POF during landing?

Example: If i bring the POF using DD (around 10K cad) and some cash(5K cad), do i have to declare it in the airport?

Thanks!
