Hello everyone I got this message this morning and its awkward that Ottawa VO transferred my application to Los Angeles California instead of them processing it. This is the first time I hear that Los Angeles VO can process Family sponsorship applications. Does anyone have this situation.


This is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada. Your application has been transferred to the visa office in Los Angeles, CA, USA for further review of your eligibility and admissibility for a permanent resident visa.



The Canadian visa office in Los Angeles will communicate with you via e-mail. The email you receive will come from email addresses that end in “@international.gc.ca” or “@cic.gc.ca”. Please add these to the “safe senders” list in your email program. You should also check your junk mail folder in your email program and/or in your email website in case important emails get filtered into this folder.



Please note that the visa office in Los Angeles cannot respond to case status enquiries at this time. We ask you to be patient and wait until that office contacts you within the next two months. Your patience will permit the visa office to begin work on your application more quickly.



However, if your personal circumstances change, such as the birth or adoption of a child, a marriage or a divorce, you must inform that visa office immediately. They must also be informed if any of the following change:



· Change of email address

· Change of residential or mailing address

· Change of immigration representative (if applicable)

· Decision to withdraw your application

· Approval of Arranged Employment Opinion by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada



Please forward all future correspondence as follows:

I did read some article that said they will move applications around to ease overburdened Visa Offices which must be the case with you.

Thank you for your reply and hopefully it would be that case since the PA is traveling overseas for vacation and it wouldn't be nice to interrupt the vacation to come back to usa and then go to LA.

May I ask how long it took them to attach your Schedule A? And how did you send it?

I eventually sent it via courier to them and it was attached 2 days later. This is after trying to upload 3 to 4 times via web form etc

It is highly likely that they are gonna ask the "updated" police check. The same thing happened to me as well. So I would recommend you to start the procedure to get a new police check.

Good luck

Somenone from another group called the call center asking about the PCC (because her would expire soon and it would take about 6 months to get a new one) and the lady said that even though it comes with an expiration date, for their purpose it is valid for a year!

Hi guys, so my PA's account updated like everyone else with the request for medical that he never received.
so I called CIC Mississauga even tho file has been transferred to VO.
Agent said PA could go to the hospital and try to see if it would be done.
PA booked appointment with the hospital yesterday and he has gotten his medical done now.
I'm so happy that is out of the way bcox we seem to be the only one that applied in march that didn't get medical request before file transfer

Interesting...so a CIC panel approved physician went ahead and did the medical without the documentation/letter from CIC? just to confirm
