Hey Shawn

This message if for you in specific couldnt email you but thought id message you on here.

You started your process about 1 month before me, My wife issss here on a TRV and is here until August, Im hoping her PRV will actually be completed before she goes home so she can come home whenever after she is done visiting her family.

But my question for you is, While waiting for hear word from them from the time they recieved your application in Moscow to getting your visa, did you bother sending in any "additional documents, pictures, reciepts etc. " and all that stuff??? Or did you just wait until you heard from them??

I was kinda going on the fact that if my wife got a TRV it would be VERYYYYY strange that she would get denyed a PRV or need more documents, as they know she is here with me, so not sure why they would need anymoreee proof.

So just wondering if you send anything else in while waiting?

Also to everyone who HAS applied for TRV and been denied, its not that expensive, try again when you can. I supplied bank info to show money to support while there here, she supplied work letter saying shes given holidays, if you have health coverage and your married you can actually add your spouse to that coverage, so ALL those kind of documents help.

Good luck if you try again for the TRV. And to everyone waiting.

Not completely true, if your from Armenia you will have to go trough the UN mission ,send every thing by Pony express at a total cost of around $250.00.

Somebody just posted a list of processing times (Moscow and Kiev) different from the ones here on Trackitt on rusforum.ca:
http://www.rusforum.ca/post157396.html#p157396
but some cases infos are incomplete (Calvados dates for example). Maybe people concerned should help this effort by supplying their info or inform this poster of the existence of Trackitt.

BTW a friend of my wife just got her POVL this week just over 5 months after submission to Mississauga at the beginning of December 2010. She's going to Quebec. We're 2 weeks behind them; fingers crossed!!!!

I'm having trouble to understand here: DETAILS OF FAMILY MEMBERS (IMM0008) .YOU MUST PROVIDE OF THE FOLLOWING DETAILS ABOUT EACH OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS, WHETHER THEY WILL BE ACCOMPANYING YOU TO CANADA OR NOT. Did they mean my parents, sisters and brothers ? or my own children?

jarnail, I strongly suggest that you provide additional documentation after your wife returns. More photos and photocopies of passport stamp, tickets etc. Also include emails and other things similar to original application package. But don't make it to large, thumb width at the maximum.

When I visited my wife at Christmas for one month, as soon as I got back, we sent additional proof.
