Yesterday i Called the CIC because i still havent got my AIP.
They told me that it is in progress and thats all they can say. When i haven´t got any mail by the 15 may i should call again....
What is the problem with my file? It´s weird...

@ Serenity
That is just the standard answer they give everyone. I got the same answer as you. I think they are working on DM's right now. They will soon start working on AIP's again as the 6 month period is fast approaching. I am sure there is nothing wrong with your app.

Confuse how to fill the forms(stress), what should we submit(stress) , pay applications fees(stress) , sent applications(stress) , stress , AOR (happy) ,stress , AIP (happy) , stress, OWP (happy) , stress, DM (happy) , interview (stress) , PPR (happy) , PR card (happy)... ;D


Few newbies after few months/years got PR card and have a good job , came in this forum shared about his/her husband/wife became a monster or they were victims of marriage fraud .
I believe all members of inland applicants 2012 will always love his/her husband/wife until death separate us....Amen

Hi Wolanila,

Did you hear anything from CIC about your DM?

No haven't heard anything. We called the other day and said they are still working on background checksand that we should hear something by the end of may or June. Typical scripted answer. They are doing the best that they can with the information they have though so I can't really blame them. We will order more GCMS notes on Tuesday. Im not worried though because I can feel it in my heart they are working on it right now

Hi.
We sent in our inland application in early February and I do believe we already received AOR (which is the first reply from CIC, right?)

I am unsure about the genuine of our relationship, as pretty much all of our computer based proof got deleted when my laptop crashed. All we pretty much included was a declaration of our common law union, him being joined to my bank account two 6 month leases of our condo, about 70 pictures of us together while travelling around, stamps of his and mine visiting each other and statements from his side of the family, as my parents decided against it as they think I made a stupid decision.

No proof of bills or joint purchases of household items or airline tickets as I didn't think we'd need them until it was too late.

Would this be considered enough proof? and if not - will there be a greater chance of us being called in for an interview or can we send additional proof?

I apologise for this essay, it'd be really nice to put my mind to ease as I keep driving myself insane thinking I left something out.

Hi Line

Just send everything you can think of or have on-hand that you can submit. There is nothing as "too much" for them, but at the same time, if that is really all you have, then it is fine as well. If the relationship is genuine, those officers are trained and experienced enough to tell from all the proofs you sent. When I was sponsoring and help my wife to work on her inland app, I was very nervous about if I sent enough info or not to proof our relationship. In the end, I just submit anything I can think of. Basically I submitted like 500 pics of us on our trips, family gathering, friends' parties, etc. We even submit our email conversion, msn chat logs, and even our "arguments" (even in genuine marriage, you argue, its human nature, so I guess the officer liked that bit of info we submitted). I have also provided original receipts of airline tickets, hotel bookings, gifts we bought for each other. The dates on those receipt are relatively close, or on the date of special events that we talk about in our application (ie. our birthday, our anniversary, etc). I submitted additional info like our joint bank account, proof that my wife is the beneficiary of all types of insurance I have, etc. In general, I even submitted the most unnecessary stuff including wedding invitations that is written to me and my wife jointly, wedding cards that our family and friends given to us on our wedding.

I hope some of the stuff I mentioned could be helpful to you that might ring a bell on something you forgot that you can include with your app.

Also, it is never too late to submit more info to your app after you already submitted. As long as you have your UCI#, you can add a note saying you found additional info that might be helpful to the application and explain to them which form, question these info corresponds with should be good.

Good luck

Have you tried affidavits and signed letters from friends and family

 

[Line.a]

Thank you very much, unfortunately we lost all chat logs before I came to canada to live with him, so that's all gone. I am gonna sit down and make a list and look through it all.. I mean we have signed two leases of each half a year for our condo, both our names are on it, same with him being joined to my bank account and almost 100 pictures, so I'm gonna have a look through it and most likely send them some more information to prove our relationship is still ongoing. Thanks for your reply, I definitely appreciate it. Good luck to you too

Yes we have statements from his side of the family.. His sister, mother and then his best friend who has been living with us for a couple months.

Unfortunately we weren't able to get any statements from my side of the family (maybe my brother if anything) because my parents and most of the family thought it was a bad idea of me to decide to move to canada. So that's not happening

What about phone records and text messages?

Don't forget about letters from friends. they count too. You can ask them to put there phone number on the letter and state that they can call them if they have any questions. The more letters the better, aunts uncles brothers cousins.
