yes you need to submit 6 photos of size given in checklist (35*45) and send original ppc.

Okay, The way I see at it is that CIC should have the courtesy to let applicants know that they have at least received their application and keep them informed along the way because we did pay them all the fees $1040 I think it was, so it should be part of the service don't you all agree?. Some get AOR's and some don't, some receive faster processing times, while others don't, this is just not good enough in my opinion, CIC should be consistent and fair to all applicants, fair enough every applicants case is different, but all I ask for and what we all want is to be kept informed, it can't be that hard can it?, we are all in the same boat here, it's just hard to try to be patient when CIC doesn't inform you, and it makes it hard to plan anything for the future when your not sure what's going on. If they did the right thing by everyone then we would all be a whole lot happier and at ease, less impatient and stressed, plain and simple. Just wish it didn't take soooooo long!!!!!!.

Also, Mississauga Case Processing Centre doesn't have a phone number or email, the only way you can contact them is via Fax or Snail Mail, I guess if they did have a phone and email they would get thousands upon thousands of people from all over the world bombarding them with questions and complaints, so I can understand that. Has anyone tried Faxing them?, would it help?, and what are the chances of them responding back?, just to give me an idea. I know you can call the CIC Call Centre number but I thought I might ask peoples opinions on this first.

Well, that's my thoughts and frustrations so far...... :

Hope everyone gets fast approvals! and enjoy the weekend.

If u are calling from inside Canada, you can speak to an agent at 18882422100

However they are unlikely to give you any details as they haven't reached your submission date yet. Also every agent tends to say something different....

Good News.. I called CIC today and I am approved as a Sponsor and my file is on the way to Vienna.. The person on the phone said that there was a letter mailed to me today with some additional documents they need and i will receive it in 5-7 days... I asked "is there any way you can tell me what the letter is about?"... he looked into it and told me IMM 5481 and IMM 5540... when I looked it up on CIC it appears that I sent these already.. Not sure what they want.. I sent a letter of my current employer.. but for 1 month I had another job... perhaps they want a letter from that one? and a letter from the government that I was indeed on Parental leave? I really do not know... The man said that sending these documents will not effect my timeline in Vienna. So that's good.. I will look into this more and perhaps call the call centre again in 1 or 2 days to see if someone else can fill me in more. I Might just pick up those papers I mentioned and send them along with whatever I have to give.. That way, they have all they could possibly need and I don't need to be bothered again.. It can't be THAT critical if I have been approved and the file is on it's way... This must be just for their side over in CIC-M. We'll see.. I hope to get an AOR from Vienna sometime soon! SO I GOT APPROVED yay!!!! I told my wife.. she is THRILLED!!! Final step, here I come!

I am glad you got approved. Those missing documents must be the reason why it took so long to get approval. Congrats!
