Wow I've been ready a couple of posts and this forum is great!
I see some of you have been waiting forever, but in the spreadsheet I saw some applications that got through in 4-5-6 months!! We have to keep the faith right!?

So here are a couple of questions for you:
- I know we need to include pictures in our application right? How did you organze them? Simply put them in an enveloppe? Or tape them to a sheet of paper? Write a description with dates behind them? Under them? Or not at all?
- Medical exam: did you wait until Kingston contacted your spouse to say now is time for medical exam? Or you did it prior to sending the application? DId you do it in Montego Bay? Kingston? Mandeville? I called the Mandeville place and honestly they didnt seem to know what I was talking about and asked me to call back in 10 minutes for them to get the info I was asking.... :S Should I go elsewhere?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone!

I arrived home safe and sound. I had a wonderful time in JM and am so blessed that I was able to spend time with my hubby. This was the first Valentine's Day that we spent together in 5 years and it was amazing. I definitely had all of you in my thoughts as I know how difficult it is to be away from your loved one especially on Valentine's Day. I will have to do some reading to catch up with the forum but congrats to all of those who received news and updates from Kingston.

I just checked our ECAS and we are in Process as of February 14!!!
I don't know how I am going to handle the PPR as just with this update tears are flowing!

Have a great Monday!

For pictures - I included them in a mini envelope and at the back of each picture labeling the dates, where we were and who was in the picture (if there was fam/friends etc).

the medical exam should be submitted upfront so that it's not returned incomplete. Some people were able to submit it without the medical examination and got through with no hassle while others got their applications returned from Mississauga. To save the hassle, I would send it in to ensure that there isn't a delay due to this item There are only certain physicians who can do the medical examinations - please see the link for the panel of physicians. http://www.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx

Hi hun, to be honest everyone did their applications different.. You will have some forum member who send a lot and some that send a little.. Its not the quantity of what you send, its the quality...

2- when you filed your application it asked for medical upfront within the package...

And its up to you where you want to do the medical, BUT o to the one your reside... Ex- if he resides in kingston, then he'll go to kin and so on.. On the website you will see the physician panel you choose from..


Ps.. With the photos and other supporting evidence, follow your heart..

Hope this helps
