Medical Call

[thomas Rai]

Hi
I applied (dependent )for canada PR visa with my wife on GNM basis two years before. as it was getting too long so i came to UK for studies.
Now 10 days before i got a letter through my agent regarding medical call.
My studies are running and have invested big money for the same.
Is there any possibilty that i can do the medical and passport submision from UK itself.?
As if i will go to india for each and every formality then after medical ,,after the submission of passport ,the average time is 3 months.
staying 3 months in India will ruin my studies cz i ll not be able to come bk UK without passport during that time.

Please help me , that can i do Medical and submission of passport itself from UK??
I would be very thankful.

Medicals can be done at any Panel Physician, anywhere in the world.

The passport must be submitted to the visa office directly, it cannot be submitted to a different VO.

Since NDVO is processing your application, your visa will be issued by them, not a different office.

Indian law prohibits mailing passports outside the country, so NDVO will not mail them back to you outside India. You may have someone ELSE take the passport to NDVO, but my understanding is that they won't send it to you outside India so you must make arrangements with them.

Usually it takes 2-3 months after medicals - assuming no issues - for them to update your file and move your application to the finalization step.

Thanks for your replies.
In concern, As it is finalized that I have to submit my passport bk from India. then is it okay if I send my Passport through someone by hand.
Will NDVO not question that the person is still in UK then how come his passport is in India.?

Moreover, On my passport i havent done any endorsement regarding my wife. even when i lodged case for Uk studies, my agent filled my application form my writing my marital status as SINGLE. but legally i was married before + canadian file was lodgged with married status.
Can this create any prob when i will submit my passport to canada embassy?
And do embassy cross check with each other?

Thanks and respect
Thomas

My understanding is that this person requires a notarized authorization to drop off and pickup your passport. I'd suggest reading the NDVO threads and asking there as NDVO operates differently than many other offices.

It shouldn't matter. Canadian passports do not indicate marital status (nor do US passports). But if you are concerned, include an explanatory letter with your passport as that would be sufficient.

Yes, embassies can cross-check with one another under some circumstances, but with respect to marital status I'd be very surprised.

Thanks for your helpful replies.
As i have lived in Uk for last 10 months. Do i have to send any other additional information from this country?
For eg: any police clearenc , any letter from my UNIversity??

If in case i need Police clearenc certificate itself from UK, dn i got one disclosure from Criminal record bureau, which my employer did for me at the time of employing me. Can i use the same? or do i have to apply for PCC (Police criminal certificate) as wel?

If in case, Canadian embassy will find me as single in Uk embassy, Can they say me as fraud? If this happens then Uk will allow me or not to come back and persue my studies??

Loads of respect

You must have a police clearance certificate from any country in which you have lived for six months or longer.

If in case i need Police clearenc certificate itself from UK, dn i got one disclosure from Criminal record bureau, which my employer did for me at the time of employing me. Can i use the same? or do i have to apply for PCC (Police criminal certificate) as wel?

It has to be an original; I know that the US issues a special letter on tamper-proof paper so a copy is not sufficient. The instructions on obtaining the necessary PCC is on the CIC website (right hand column, bottom, "Obtain Police Certificates" I think it is). Follow those directions.

If in case, Canadian embassy will find me as single in Uk embassy, Can they say me as fraud? If this happens then Uk will allow me or not to come back and persue my studies??

I have never seen a case of someone being married accused of fraud because they have an old document indicating they are single. That doesn't mean it cannot happen, but as long as you disclose it to the VO it cannot be misrepresentation. I assume the issue date of your passport precedes your marriage. And again, I know Canada doesn't include marital status on a passport. I suspect the UK does not either. I cannot envision any scenario in which they would claim this was misrepresentation - but if you're concerned disclose it and they can tell you if they want you to update your passport.

 

[thomas Rai]

Question is not about passport. Issue is that on application form of UK It was written that I am single. so on the data base of UK i am single. I didnt tell a single thing about me that i am married. But case for canada was applied before and on married basis.
So when I ll send my passport to canada embassy, and they will see my visa stamped of UK, if they ll try to take out info about my visa. then marital status can be disclosed.
for this very reason I am scaring.

It seems extremely unlikely that this is going to be an issue, but if you are very concerned about it, you should contact the UK and advise them of your change in marital status. The VOs are concerned about material issues: criminality, overstay, etc. If you committed misrepresentation to the UK it might be an issue, but if they've not discovered it, they wouldn't report it. And they definitely wouldn't be sharing the contents of your application with another country absent your written permission to do so.

Hi again
Thanks very much for your helpful replies
As I am studying now, my exams are next month in UKs university.
I still wanna finish off my studies. as i am called for medical and i have to go back in India for the submission of passport.
Then can i get any extension in studies over here.? If yes what reason should i give, shall i tell them the truth about canada or shall i make some other excuse? Because if i ll let them know the truth then University tells each and every thing about student to UKBA. And if university will disclose about canadian married case to UKBA(UK border agency), then it ll be disclosed to uk embassy that I am not single but married.

After getting Visa for canada , should i go to UK for persuing studies or shall i go canada and wait for getting PR card and then come bk UK?
Let me know what according to you is more beneficial.

After medical how long do the embassy take for processing?

Can they call us for interview after medical as well?

Thanks and regards
Thomas

I know nothing about UK immigration practice. I'd suggest you should probably correct your records with the UK at some point though. Do you think that they would not have granted your visa if you had indicated you were married? I'd be shocked if the UK cared that you have an application going in Canada.

If you are really that concerned, however, I'd suggest you consult with an attorney.

Canadian immigration visas have an expiration date. Once you have become a permanent resident you will need to live at least 730 days inside Canada in your first five years and then you must maintain that 730 days in the last 5 years for as long as you remain a permanent resident. So you could become a PR and then go study in the UK for 2 years, 11 months, and 29 days, and then go to Canada without a problem (just don't LEAVE after that point.)

After medical how long do the embassy take for processing?

Can they call us for interview after medical as well?

1-2 months usually after the medical results are in, so 2-3 months after you have the medical examination.

They may call you for an interview at any point, but it would be extremely unusual.

Once a Confirmation of Permanent Residency (and "counterfoil" or one-use travel visa) you must appear in Canada prior to the expiration. Normally, the expiration date is the sooner of the expiration of your medicals (one year from the date they are done) or the expiration of your passport.

For me, my COPR had an expiration date of 5 February 2013 because my medical examination had been done on 6 February 2013.

Now I'm confused - I thought you HAD applied for permanent residency. Your first post says you applied two years ago.

Do you mean "becoming a permanent resident at a port of entry?"

If so, you really are asking about the "landing interview". The CBSA officer at the port of entry will examine your documents, confirm they are still valid, go over them with you, have you initial two key provisions: one relating to criminality and the other relating to family composition changes. Then you sign the COPR. If you are importing goods - either at the time of landing OR at some point in the future - you will need to provide them with the B4/B4A forms listing those goods (two sets of forms - one for goods with you at the time of landing and a second set for goods that you will import in the future.)

Thus, to land you must have:

- Your passport
- Your Confirmation of Permanent Residency
- Your B4/B4A forms
- If you are an economic class PR, you need to have proof that you have the necessary funds to land - that does not mean you must bring the funds, just that you must have evidence to convince the officer that you actually do have the funds.

It's usually a fairly simple process (it took me under 10 minutes). They stamp your passport, they stamp your COPR, they staple one copy into your passport and they keep the other copy. The second copy is sent to Sydney, NS for production of your Permanent Resident Card.

Note: if you do not have an address in Canada at the time of landing, you have 6 months to inform CIC of your address so they may send you the PR card.

A permanent resident card will not be sent to an address outside Canada. You may have it sent to someone you know IN Canada and they may forward it to you, but CIC insists on sending it to a Canadian address.

I dont know exactly, thats whats the thingy?
but my agent said to me, that u have to pay landing fees before you fly.
does it mean the same what you said in your last post?

thanks
