JULY 2014 OUTLAND APPLICATIONS!

[Pulak]

Me and my wife got our PR on 2012 and came to Canada , received our PR card and went back to Bangladesh. There on 2013 our child was born. Now on 2014 we came back to Canada permanently with my child(tourist visa for the child). I applied for my child's PR on August 2014. First part of the process is complete, that is I am eligible to sponsor my child. They have send the application to Singapore visa office for further process on September. Do you have any idea how long it will take to complete the whole process? I have already applied to extend my child's visit visa.
Thanks.

When you chose a drop down it will be Client ID number, should have shown up with your SA.
As for proof, my husband and i used letters from my best friend and both our parents as well as a list of numbers they could call of people we both met. I may also suggest any other pictures of the two of you together outside of wedding photos and maybe a letter from you and your husband talking about your relationship. They just want evidence to know you two are truly wanting to be married forever, so anything that shows extra commitment will help too. I also provided a skype log of calls and wrote that I had thousands of facebook messages if they require more evidence. But we have also been living together for over two years.
As for online or mail I dont know. Did they mention what form they would want? Because whatever they suggest is what i would stick with. If they offer both mail and email i would use email to their specs simply because it is faster.
Good luck!

Just signed in on my husbands ECAS for the first time, (Always used mine before hand) and it shows the mailing address as our house number, 000 then our street number 1234 and then Private Road, but it is really supposed to be;

000 Private Road 1234

Will that cause an issue??
I mean are they actually going to MAIL anything? Or email? because we sent all his passport copies in before hand, same with medicals and such. It also says you have to CONTACT them to change it. I'm 10000% sure we did our address right on everything else. I just dont know if US postal will get that right and mail to the right location. What do i do?

You could always email them the address and ask them to update it because you want to make sure it's correct in their system. It might take a week or so for them to update it, but they shouldn't have problem doing it.

Unfortunately I don't think we can really give you a timeline for how long the rest of it will take. I believe children's applications are processed on a different timeline than spousal or other familial applications. Perhaps you might be able to use the search bar and type in "child sponsorship" and see what comes up. You might find someone else from the same VO in a similar situation and possibly get a handle on what their timeline looks/looked like.

They mail you your COPR, so you really do want to make sure it is correct. Even if you send passport copies, photos etc before hand some offices still ask for them again. You can call them to change it.

This is a ton of help, thank you so much. As for my choices for actually checking my ECAS it's more that I'm unsure of the 2nd one when you actually put stuff in before your UCI and stuff. Like what would I be considered since my only options are Business Class, Simplified application process, Quebec skilled workers, CEC, Skilled worker, and Provincial Nominee. Sadly, I have NOT been able to figure out this one. When my husbands was still accessible (for some reason it isn't?) I was okay using it. As for information to be included they wanted didn't specify what form they wanted them in but added both mail/email. Your advice was really close to what we thought of when faced with the issue of lack of pictures. Thanks again for letting me know what you went with!

Do you know what number it is i need to call?
Or who do I email?

Call Centre telephone number: 1-888-242‑2100
Their hours are 8AM to 4PM but you'll probably want to call right at 8 when they open.

Email address: CPC-CTD-Ottawa @ cic.gc.ca

 

[AshleyAnne]

Can you call that number outside of Canada?

 

[AshleyAnne]

I'm so tired of seeing "Application has been received"!!!!!!!

 

[the one]

i just have one question , dose it take so long from"in process" to "decsion made"?

 

[Christoph100]

Can you call that number outside of Canada?

Unfortunately CIC's help desk can not be called from outside Canada

Okay, so I have to email them then, correct?

 

[brucem]

i just have one question , dose it take so long from"in process" to "decsion made"?

There is no real answer to that, some take as little as a couple of weeks as CIC have already been working on a file and not been updating ECAS, others it can take a few months as it is all dependent on how quickly they are able to complete the necessary checks etc.

 

[the one]

thank u brucem for ur answer , my ECAS was updated to "in process" thats why im asking for that,i hope its not taking so long
