Hello Dr Hasib/ Mayank,

Its been a long, I haven’t got any update as yet. DHL guys acknowledged that it (my file) has been delivered on 9th Feb 2011 to CIO nova scotia.

I haven’t checked my Bank DD from bank, should I go and check whether that has been encashed or not.

I am worried, its over 2 months and 16 days. Why these guys are not sending emails or acknowledging that they have got my file or not.

Just general question generally how long does it take to complete all the formalities and how long CIO guys take to time to provide file number once Bank DD is encashed.

Thanks,

Surendra Pal
 
Dear Surenpal,

I advise you to first contact your Bank & know the status of your BD . If it encashed then its fine...if not then NER may be there...

Again i advise you to contact CIO at

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/canada/csu.asp

Currently CIO is sending PER email in 25-35 days...but as you applied on feb..so at that time CIO took 45-50 days to get PER email.

Hope this help ..

Regards,
Mayank

Hi Surendra,

In addition to Mayank's comment, it could be if you have mistyped your email id or else if they mistyped your email id in their database.
Write to them using CIC forum: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/canada/csu.asp

Dear Mayank,

I have contacted the bank and got to know that DD has not yet encashed.

As instructed by you I have email on the link below asking the reason and status. How long do take to reply on such emails. finger crossed hoping for the best.

Dear Moabbasi,

I have checked in the copy of my forms that email address is correct.

Thanks,

Surendra Pal

Dear Zeenat;

All applications must be sent to CIO office only, once they review the file illegibility they will be the one to send it to your appropriate VO, and only then your direct contact would be your VO,
I did the same mistake and they returned back all my file then I send it to CIO and now it's under process

Hope this clears the way for you, you should start preparing other forms with new dates, don't wait untill you receive the old documents.
 
hI

For post 26 june 2010 applicants, do they need to send 2 sets of application, one for CIO and one for VO to Novo scotia or just one set of application forms ?

Plz reply quickly now if possible
 
You only send ONE FULL SET OF FORMS, plus all the other documents requested in the CIO and VO specific check lists. CIO Nova Scotia will go through your documents and decide if they meet the Ministerial Requirements, are complete in every way. If they are, CIO will forward your whole pkg to your VO. If/When anything further is required, you will be informed. Hope this helps.
