Hello Forum Mates;

Please I am looking for anybody who can link me up OR help with a short let accommodation in Winnipeg for 1-month (20/06/2015 to 19/07/2015) for a family of 5.

Even it is a link to a short term agent that can help.

I intend to so a short landing when my Kids are on holiday and return to sort out some issues before finally returning to settle down in Winnipeg.

I will greatly appreciate any help that can be rendered for this?

Please send me a Personal Message (PM) if you can help in anyway.

I just received an e-mail from LVO (RFI) to submit the following: -

1) RPRF
2) Updated Information Chart
3) Medical Results
4) Updated copies of passport bio pages
5) 6 month statement of my salary account

My Information is as follows: -

Application Received: 31/07/2014
PER: 25/11/2014
Updated Background declaration: 11/02/2015
MR/RPRF/PPR1/updated Info. Chart/bank statement: 12 March 2015

Second line not added

My queries: -

1) How to appear for medical exam in Karachi, Pakistan.
2) They have stated that I will receive a separate e-mail with instructions for medicals. Should I wait for it? or should I contact IOM Karachi now?
3) I don't know how to update the Spreadsheet.

Dear Rahzee,
Congrats man! +1 for getting this far
I had received approx same mail from RFI,
1. To appear in medical exam call IOM on 051-111-466-472 or 0306-2922575 or 0307-5371776 and book an appointment for CAN medical.
2. No need to wait for it as you would receive it in a day or two as it will have a form which you need to take to IOM. So book appointment asap as i got appointment after 15 days all most (they are quite busy)

Requirements for medical (further the lady one phone would guide you)
Two passport size photo with white background
6720 fees in cash (for one person)
polio medical card from any govt. hospital
2 copies of passport
original passport
and a medical form sent in MR mail

one good news now IOM is offering emedical services (Atleast khi one is )
best of luck

Story Starting Story Finishing:


It was actually Sep 2010 when I got an admission on Masters on a mid-ranking university of Canada (for fall 2011). On that time I was not aware that this is not the main hurdle I will have to face for entering Canada. Since, during application for student Visa, I got to know that success rate for student visa from Singapore Visa office is nearly less than 10%!!!

I made a lot of research for the careful student visa application. But I got refused mentioning that- I have not proved I have enough bonding with my home country (not sure abt the actual cause).

I was really depressed since I was expecting a lot about my career and did a lot of hard work with this visa application.

After that, my elder brother applied for Saskatchewan provincial nominee program (SINP-which is another PR program) on Jun 2011. After my application, this program turned into a slowest one ever.

During Jun 2012, CIC declared that they are not gonna open their regular FSW skilled category program on this year. They will introduce a new faster program on Jan 13 which was then shifted to May 13. Minister promised for several times that this program's application will be processed within a months.

I got myself optimistic and started preparing myself for this program (GT IELTS etc.). The program declared before 14 days (20 Apr 13) and many rules were very new like educational assessment/IELTS each band 6.0 etc. I tried to do every work within this time and dropped my file on the very opening day.

Initial steps like PER,AOR were clearing very smoothly. I was getting relaxed since minister's promise was playing on my mind....But after getting AOR from SG it was almost unbearable for me to wait for some news...

So things were not going in my favor...waiting waiting....No news....No update for any FSW13 SG applicants...

After waiting over 1.5 yrs I started prep to apply for my spouse's application from CPC-O on Aug 14.

Meanwhile I got nomination from Saskatchewan for further processing on July 14 (need to apply within Dec 14).

After this I got second line on ECAS (Oct 14) and I was getting anxious for MR....But alas, many SG FSW13 even FSW14 applicants were getting MR/PPR but no trace abt mine one....

Finally I had to know my MR news from GCMS report on Dec 14 (which was issued two months earlier) .....

[size=14pt]And now received Visa and CoPR on my hand.....


I know almost all other Visa office applicants are now on Canada from FSW13.

Even after this waiting of five yrs one thing I must say guys, patience can bring ur most desired achievements...That's what is my lesson.

I am sorry for the long writings, One message I want to deliver—that is- Don't lose hope....keep patience from ur heart....Have faith on God....U will get what u want....Since he is great!!!...He knows the best for u...

I sincerely show my heartiest gratitude to all of my brothers....sisters for their support....My painful waiting was converted to happy moments (seriously) passing with u....it feels me amazing, when somebody says that my silly suggestion helped him atleast a bit!!!

And receive my apology for whom I was not able to respond timely/correctly....Sorry guys....Dont mind for my behave, sometimes shortage of knowledge ....

I am a telecom guy....I know there are a lot of brothers/sisters from this domain....I may require employment support/suggestions from my brother/sisters (will not hesitate to ask to my family members, alright??!!! )....If I have opportunities then surely I will try my best in future too....

Will be in touch....

Keep praying for each other....

You are such a great inspiration and I am so glad you have achieved what you set out to do in 2010. Despite the knockbacks and delays you stayed resolute. And your acknowledgment of God's will in the process is commendable. Sometimes will loose sight of God's timing and are impatient when things don't go according to our own plans forgetting that 'God makes all things beautiful in His own time'

It is your season brother and I pray that the favour of God will go with you to Canada and open doors of opportunity to you. All the best for the future for you and your family brother!!

And to everyone that's waiting, keep up the faith and know that if its meant to happen it will happen!!

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum and look forward to actively participating!

My application under FSW 2014 was received by CIC on December 23rd 2014. I received my PER email on March 12th 2015. To my knowledge my application will be processed by the London Visa Office.

What I really need to know is if my employment status i.e. if resigning from my current job will have an impact on the processing or outcome of my immigration application.

I need to make a make a major decision within the next few days.

Thank you.
