Finally I have Decision Made on my E-file.

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive Confirmation Letter since the decision made?

And how long it takes to get the passport back? It seems few days ago my status was updated.
Oh congrats! Usually it does not take that long. about 10/15 days. When did your status change? today or yesterday? when had u submitted your pp?

Just to add in a spreadsheet:

Here is my Timeline:
Visa office: New Delhi
Medical done 9/12/12
Application received by CIC 9/21/12
Sponsorship approval 10/24/12
Passport requested 11/21/12
Request of more docs 02/21/13

We emailed to consulate on 04/14/13 stating that my pp is expiring on 20/10/2013 and that might potentially complicate the application process unnecessarily. Unfortunately no response on it yet!

I am in Canada with visitor's extension until Aug 4 and if I don't get pp for renewal soon then I'm pretty much sure, later I'll lack time to proceed pp renew application. I'm not even sure, how will it work in case of not having pp by Aug 4th and same time visa expiring:-(
Good Lord, help us!!!! Any idea how to handle this??

Thank you,

THIS IS the timeline...from his previous posts
CONGRATS rmj133!

Thanks Maverick! It's just that one less thing in my list to wait for and the list is long :-D

Hi dkailey, thanks and I know how that feels:-( just hang in there, this shall end too. When I had applied the processing time was 6 months and suddenly in two months it got changed into 10 months for the outland applicants. So, since then I have been waiting and still waiting to get back pp. I assume, in my case MP inquiry helped.

There is no income requirement as such for spousal sponsorship. You just need to make sure you are not on social assistance.

But as a PR you MUST be residing in Canada when you file the application. So when you plan to file your wife's PR application, get to Canada and get a job there. Only after you are in Canada and you prove that you plan to stay there should you file. If not you run the risk of getting rejected in Stage 1. Get a home or rent and show your rental agreement. Any other long term evidence will also be good.

Only Citizens are allowed to be outside Canada when sponsoring a spouse or child.

Given the strike action, I can only say file asap. There will definitely be a lot of backlog now and it will only keep piling up as long as the strike is ongoing. We don't know when it will end. We don't know when even the 2012 applicants will be through. There is nobody here that can give you a definite answer.

The only thing you can do is get to canada, get a job etc and file the application.

Good luck! :)

thanks for replying dear.

I went through few posts. People have said that submit phone bills, mails, chats etc. with the application. I am doing arranged marriage and have no chats, mails, or telephone records to show it. I can however give court marriage papers, wedding card, pics of wedding and videos if required and Marriage certificate.

do this still ask for phone bills, mails and chat records.

I pray to god NDVO resumes normal working soon and strike gets over
kindly reply

It is usually advised to submit as much proof as possible..including photos, phone bills,chats,e-mail of relationship before and after the wedding...to show relationship is genuine
So there is nothing right or wrong or nobody can really tel how much proof is enuf...
You know your case best and submit proof that you think would help a third person(visa officer in this case) who is not aware of your relationship and decide that it is indeed genuine!
 
i am new to this thread can anybody tell me when NDVO will likely to start working.and now a days they are doing some communication or not via e-mail. please reply.
 
Hi,

For those who are proficient in reading GCMS notes, I just received my spouse's and have a few questions, I'd appreciate any help.

This is what I see under Security

Security: 1
Date created: 2012/1/17 (does this mean they sent out for security check on this date?)

Sub activity: 1
Type:

Sub activity: 2
Type: security screening

Criminality: 1
Status: passed

I'm not sure at what else I should look at to understand whats going on with our file? The second medicals will expire in 2 months and we have exceeded normal processing times. Embassy replies to my emails only telling us to wait for security results... any insights?

Thanks for any replies.

If you are a Canadian Citizen you need a Visa to visit India (Do you have a PIO or OCI)? If not then the visa is good for 6months, if you have PIO and or OCI you can stay as long as you want. If you plan to stay longer than 6 months then you must register with the police commissioners office within the first 2 weeks of arrival.
To get the Visa, go online for the application and submit to nearest BLS processing centre http://www.blsindia-canada.com/index.php
 
Thanx everybody :) I am gonna visit my paster soon..
