How soon?? hahah I'm getting desperate here :-X

I totally fell ya. Getting desperate myself. I just want to hear SOMETHING that shows movement. I'm always watching to see if you've heard anything cause your just a few weeks ahead of me and my husband. This waiting lately is killing me.

 

[CANzanillo]

I admit I'm getting desperate too but trying to stay positive. It's harder with the holiday season approaching and desiring to be in Canada for that. Add to that not being in Canada for emergency triple bypass surgery yesterday for my youngest brother which is completely stressing out my elderly mother. This process sucks but we have to stay positive that it will soon be over.

Let's stay positive people..
To be honest.. I don't even want to keep checking the calendar..
I don't want to know how many weeks left for the year to end..
Flight tickets and all the Xmas plan on hold..

But let's just pray for the golden email to come,
So that we can all enjoy a happy holiday!

Good news are coming, that storm of PPRs is close! Let's believe on that!

All the best!

hello you all..... I have a couple of questions, I hope you guys can answer, by the way congrats to lovelycomplex...you can breathe now, I know the feeling....
Ok so first one is, what happens when you land in canada? I hear ppl said you need to fill out a form,

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomers/before-border.asp

second is when they asked for ur passport how you know when they will give u back that, like they will send you an email telling u or u just get it at ut house and that it???Im asking this cus I dont know if u know my story but they requested my background checks from all the countrys I have lived and my original passport with the passport size photos all at once, thats why Im asking,

I am not 100% sure on their point but I would expect that they would advise you by email that documents are being returned.

and my last question is that my medicals expired on september 17, and around one week before that I got all the instructions to send my police checks and my passport with my passport size pictures so I reply telling them that my medicals will expired and i need the original passports in order to get my medicals, so they reply by saying follow the instructions we are not asking for remedicals.........ok so i sent all my police checks and the tracking number for the mexico datos registrales (that is been a pain in the butt, Im sorry cus I lived outside Mexico and I sent everything to the canadian embassy in Mexico just as they asked me ,I just dont know if they already have the results in my countrys embassy or the timeline for that process) anyway and I sent that to the embassy on october 15 and 1 week ago I got an email asking for remedicals and sent me a uci number and i did not need my oringinal passport for it only a valid id............so I did that 2 days after i got email, i just dont understand why if they knew my medicals expired or were about to expired didnt asked me right away for it, I mean in the first email tehy sent me, also the officer that interview me told me oh I see your medicals are about to expired, anyway, those are my qestions, hope you can help me, and good luck, God bless and hopefully soon we will hear some sweet news, is been a long journey!!!!

Impossible to say why they didn't ask you for remedicals in the first email. They may have overlooked it, or it was scheduled to be reviewed by the officer at a set date in the future and they actions simply didn't coincide. The good thing is you that you have everything submitted and hopefully soon you will be hearing some good news.

Oh nice thanks for the info!!! Im kind of down today since I found out that the mexican thing for ppl that live outside mexico is taking around 6 months...is honestly making me very sad and depress, but i guess I cant control that and I dont have another option...like someone said before welcome to the waiting game!!lol Im trying to be positive is just that bothers me cus is the only thing I need and is gonna take so long is crazy...but anyway..thanks again for the info and hope we can look back and laugh about all this one day, I just want to hold my hubby

 

[saraotty]

I have a question for Mexican applicants. Why you do not send the Police Record with the application? Is mandatory to wait until they ask for it?

 

[pau]

Yes is only when they ask for it... but for mexicans in Mexico is easy it tales only 10 days, the problem is for the ppl outside Mexico, cus we have to send the fingerprints and everything to the canadian embassy in Mexico and is causing tons of delays, ppl said is taking like 5 to 6 months and if you are lucky 3 to 4 months, I already sent everything to the embassy in Mexico but im thinking in asking a relative in Mexico to help me get it so it takes less cus Is frustrating..

The PGR (Procuraduria General de la Republica) will not provide the Constancia de Datos Registrales without a formal letter from the Canadian Immigration Department asking for it on behalf of the PR applicant. For this reason Mexican applicants can't do this upfront, unlike other latin american countries processed by the MCVO. It would be nice if they could as it would shorten the processing time.

A report of Antecedentes Penales can be obtained at a state/local level, but that is not the document the CIC wants.

 

[Labbadulc]

Welcome Labbadulc! I have added you to the spreadsheet. Where do you intend to live in Canada once you land?

We all wish you speedy processing!

Thank you CANzanillo!

I'm sponsoring my husband from Quebec! i hope that doesn't make it longer but it might...

Hi everyone

I am wondering if any of you have experience with getting the "Carta de datos registrales" through the Embassy. And also the real average time that takes to processes in the Embassy.

I am in the middle of the two options of sending someone to do it in the PGR or sending all ythe documents to the Embassy to to it in my behalf, and right now I am not sure what to do, just want to find the right one to avoid less trouble.


Thanks!!

Buenos dias Manere!

Hopefully someone will answer your specific correction, but in the meantime consider my thoughts...

It seems to me that getting someone to do it for you in Mexico would be by far the easiest and fastest. I suggest you call the PGR sede in your state and inquire as to the requisites, that is, who can get it on your behalf and whether or not they will need a carta de poder. It took my wife 3 days to get hers plus a week (or so) for translation, then couriering it in to CIC. It does require a trip to the state capital where the sede is and then another trip to pick up the results. You can arrange the translation yourself (I can provide you with 2 translator options, both in Mexico City), as they only need a scan of the PGR report to provide you with a certified translation. Once complete they will courier the translation to you, which you then courier to the MXVO.

Here is the link to the info page for the Constancia de Datos Registrales; http://www.pgr.gob.mx/datosregistrales/Paginas/default.aspx

It is relatively straight forward to obtain, so if time is more important to you I recommend this route. You would still need to get finger prints and photos in Canada as well as arrange the other required documentation and courier that to the person designated.

Speedy Processing!

EDIT; this what the link I sent you says about designating someone to obtain the Constancia on your behalf...

En caso de que el interesado designe a una persona para recoger la Constancia, el designado deberá entregar poder notarial o carta poder simple en original, dirigida al titular de la Dirección General de Control de Procesos Penales Federales o al delegado estatal correspondiente, ésta deberá contener no solo el nombre y firma del poderdante y del apoderado, sino también el nombre y firma de dos testigos, anexando copia simple y legible por ambos lados de las identificaciones oficiales vigentes de cada uno (a fin de cotejar las firmas); para personas que residen en el extranjero, el trámite se realiza a través de un representante con carta poder en los términos señalados.​
