Hi friends,

I heard that Buffalo visa office is closing down. Is it true? I chose Buffalo in my application and I got AOR saying my application is being forwarded to the visa office that I chose. My application reached CIC on 13th of July. I see that new generic application form is in effect from 18th of July, if visa office changed for applicants applying from within Canada then would CPP-O be applicable for applcations received on or after 18th of July?

What will happen in my case? Will they themselves change visa office to CPP-O in my application or will it be sent to Buffalo?

Thanks,
Rana
 
Rana, it only makes sense for them to forward it to CPP-O. We can't be penalized for following instructions properly.
 
My CC got charged today. Didn't receive AOR. My file was received on July 24th. All the best for everybody.

I had faced a similar situation - i managed to get my school leaving certificate which has a DOB and father's name on it and re-submitted the application.....

I did not have my birth certificate. I sent my 12th Grade school leaving certificate from India as a proof and that worked.

If you dont have, you can apply for a real birth certificate from India. I used alliedlegalonline.com to get that. However, it took them about 6 weeks to get my BC from India.

thanks for suggestion .. but my all 10th and 12th grade certificates are in Hindi :( that's why i am looking for affidavit from lawyer as best option..
Do you know any lawyer who provide this service in Toronto ...
Also, since they returned my application , my PCC also completed 3 months now ...will they count it as expired when i resubmit it this time ? Do i need to get a new one again ???? :(
