NEW DELHI - 2013 APPLICANTS.

[hi am there]

Hey Can we ask for a Canadian Interviewer? Really and I hope that would not impact the process in negative way. It would be great to have Canadian Interviewer because Indians are fool, specially those who sitting at such levels. All they want to hear is Yes sir, No sir, you are right sir, you are always right sir, You are God sir, God is nothing sir actually you are real god sir...

Goddamn sir ...

well siad rajinregina14

Thanks buddy

I have a advise for you I don't know we can do it or not but I want to share with you after gone through this terrible mental torture.

As you got to know you also recommended for interview. You must ask for a Canadian interviewer for your interview.
I personally feel they are more professional and treats people like human.

not sure if I can ask for a preference for a Canadian interviewer..even if I do, it might delay the process since it is based on the availability of a Canadian interviewer...as it is I am frustrated that they have not scheduled a date (it is way past one month since they did the stupid recommended and required for interview) more delays would make me drop this whole idea and retire to Himalayas (and pray my fellow Sanyasi is not a previous NDVO employee)

Hi friends,

Just wanna inform you all that my wife got her passport on 7th March. Apology for the late update. Actually I was in India and during that time we got her passport. We both travelled together and landed on 18th March.

My best wishes to all of you. Onething I learnt, there is no trick to pass your application. Patience is the only key.

Re: work permit

HAI,
My wife is studying in canada on jan 2014 onwards.rigt now iam in india.can i apply any visa to go to canada?i applyed opem work permit, but if refused because of enough fund. i show $5000 only.plz tell me any way to go canada

You can apply for a visit but you have to show strong proof that you will go back to India after the visa expires. If you can't, the visit visa application will most likely be rejected.

Hey Guys,

I just want to clarify something. I recently asked my lawyer friend about my case. I asked him why it is taking so long to process my wife's case when she already had her interview done and passed with medical send again. He replied that the processing time is only for those individuals who did not have a interview. If you had an interview then the processing time doesn't matter at all is this correct???

He said the interview will add at least 3 to 4 months give or take for NDVO to look into your file again. Please reply.

It doesn't necessarily take 3-4 months after the interview as some applicants have gotten their visas right after their interview or even a week after. I guess it depends on the visa officer at this point.

Hi all,
My wife's interview was originally scheduled for March 25th. However, Chandigarh high commission called my wife yesterday to reschedule her interview by a few more weeks ahead to April 7th. It's unfortunate for me now, since I'm currently in India with my wife to be accordingly with her for the 25th schedule interview. But now, my wife will have to do the interview alone as I have to return to canada for my work, can't afford to extend my stay due to the unprofessionality of the CHC.

Oh that's awful. Why does NDVO do this?
But don't worry. I am sure your wife will pass her interview with flying colours. Also, she can tell them at the interview that you were with her this month for the interview and couldn't be due to rescheduling. It is further proof that you are genuine couple and should be together soon. All the best for interview.

hi guys,
from all the info im reading about the forum members and my own experience of waiting for NDVO to respond, it seems applying for immigration is the worst torture...my kid is so sick and cant besr the pollution in India (She is a US citizen and waiting for her moom's immi as she is a canadian citizen too) that i curse these people...at least there should be some unformity in all the cases e.g. someone is geeting aor from ndvo sooner and someone later and same is the case with ppr...some people get clarity thorugh gcms notes and some suffer because of their representatives.... i completely understand that the procesing time is 13 mths now, yet they have the liberty of treating people gently or cruelly...b'lieve me im so depressed and started doing lot of meditation to come out of it, no help...started activity classes, no help coz every day i predict someone is terribly wrong with my file... im a very optimistic and cheerful person yet for the first time in my life im so broken... im away from my husband fro 10 mths, dont know how many more mths...desi girl do you think there is some way to let the chc know that some uniformity sholud be there to avoid unnecessary wait...if one has a set time in front, things work out well....any ways all the best to all those who are waiting, God is there to help us..tc
Palaki

Hi Palaki...yes I know this waiting game is so depressing. .but we don't have any option. .I was working full time in New Zealand for last 5 years. .but due to passport request I had to come india on June 2013...since then I'm waiting...watching tv/internet all the day...even I don't have any red flag except travel history for New Zealand...I try to spend my time to read books...as you have sweet daughter...so try to be busy with her...as you are Nov 13 applicant so you might have to wait till August- September ( I wish you don't have to wait more than that but be mentally prepare for that). Good luck for your application

Hello Friends,

Sorry for late reply here, I had a very coaster roller like journey and would like to share briefly so members here can take something from it.

So, i had received a call on 20th of Feb and was asked if i can fly to Canada by 5th of March, i had confirmed that i could, the lady had further confirmed my dob and said thanks and was going to disconnect the call but i quickly asked if they are sending my visa soon, she said i will come to know about it. like, really? you are asking me if i can fly in less than 2 weeks and then saying I will come to know about it? lol. So then my wait began, i had booked my ticket for 3rd March, where i would leave Chennai on 4th early hours and reach Toronto on 4th(a day before my visa expires). I did a MP enquiry on 24th and the MP office got back to us on 26th saying NDVO had written them on 25th (after getting their enquiry) that they have sent the passport today. So, 5 days remaining till i fly and i had no passport, it usually takes 7-10 days to get the passport so i was very worried that i am not getting my passport untill after 5th. I finally got my passport on 1st(Saturday) and i flew from my home city on Monday (3rd March). But, i had a lot to face still, my connecting flight was Air India to Chennai and then a flight to Toronto via Frankfurt. The Air India Flight got delayed few times and in the end flew after 6 hours of its original time :-\ (Never take a Air India flight, not worth the risk) hence, i missed my flight to Toronto, then i had to stay overnight at a hotel and figure out my flight for next day, so now i would fly on 5th and reach Toronto on 5th. So, next day I issued another ticket and reached airport 3 hours before the departure, when i went to check in my luggage where, i was told by airline personnel that as my visa was expiring on 5th so i may not be able to fly! I argued that its valid till 5th so it shouldn't be a problem, after that, a guy with walkie talkie took my passport and itinery with my landing papers and went to a room to confirm, after waiting for more than an hour he confirmed that i can fly, that was a great relief, i was panicking till i heared that! Next the same thing happened in Frankfurt when they had to check if i can fly but there it took 2 minutes to confirm the same.

So, i finally landed in Canada on 5th! The bottom line of the story is it is you who will realise and care what it really means for you to be with your loved one and the struggle you have gone through to make this happen, others are only doing their job and have no emotions attached to it. Please stay strong and in the end all will be good!

Good Luck to all my friends in this forum and wish you all a speedy visa.

Warmest Regards
DJ

Wow! What a journey! Glad you made it to Canada! Wishing you a happy married life and all the best.
Thanks for sharing your experiences and the words of encouragement.

Palaki

Hi Palaki, I am so sorry to hear about your struggle and it is maternal instinct to look for the best of your child. I know you are very worried regarding the health of your baby. Unfortunately with regards to NDVO, we may not be able to do anything... Unless we write letters of complaints to the consulate and flood them with it, or get petitions signed. Best bet is to get our story heard, get the support of the communities and bring NDVO down to its knees. Unfortunately, they will hide behind their lies that they are working the hardest for everyone's sakes. Just be strong. This what will be over soon and you will get out of this nightmare. Did you try mp inquiry? Maybe you can get your husband to talk to the consulate in Ottawa for looking into your file?
