they ask for divorce petition/application coz it has details of children if u had from your previous marriage....its just to confirm that....if all is ok with the petition and the main application u have sent at Mississauga (they cross check).....then 80% no interview.... basically ADR saves u from having an interview if everything seems correct according to them....the only dis-advantage is that your file does get delayed if they give u 30 days or 60 days your file will be looked only after that date is over can they write the due date after the time limit is over and if u refuse to sent the document on time then definitely its an interview !!
Wasn't there one 2012 case that got application rejected when the NDVO misplaced the documents sent by the applicant after ADR? I remember that NDVO had sent an ADR and the applicant sent back the documents within 30 days but NDVO misplaced it or didn't see it and rejected the applicants saying that the documents requested were not sent. They found the documents after applicant appealed with proof that documents were sent. They didn't schedule an interview before the rejection. But then who knows how NDVO works.
And yes Mahi_Milaa_De, I have not come across anyone who went through interview and had ADR in 2013 but there are a few 2012 (as per their spreadsheet) who had both. So yes it is possible, sometimes getting interview first then ADR. Again, like Myrah said, there should be no discrepancy in the application and the petition to avoid the interview.
