[CANVISA770]

Keeping husband and wife separate on their first year of marriage is the biggest cruelty the CIC is doing.. they should at least grand a visit visa for spouse.. Its very hard to go through these 13 months... And now they are introducing Express skilled worker program less than 6 month immigration and spending $14 million for that.. its a rude action from CIC. They should give priority to family first. What about filing a mass petition to Minister of immigration and Prime minister....?

Should do that, even ask media and news who can put this on bigger picture. This is ridiculous, no transparency at all, and even after 13 months no surety of response. This is just harassment for own Canadian Citizens, its not flight or visa to space, its just country Canada.

You do not need to get it attested by the ministry of external affairs, I have no idea who is spreading this wrong information. All you do is make a copy of your marriage certificate, have a notary public/lawyer attest it, that's it

Documents issued in one country which need to be used in another country must be authenticated and legalized or Apostilled before they can be recognized as valid in the foreign country. Such documents range from degrees, transcripts, powers of attorney and other legal papers. If the country where you intend to use your documents is a member of the Hague Convention, you need you documents attested by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs (Apostille). A duly Apostilled (Attested by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs) document is acceptable mostly in all Countries.

Apostille (Attestation by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs) can be obtained on birth certificates, death, power of attorney, marriage certificates, educational certificates and affidavits. Before getting the Attestation by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs all the concerned documents must be legalized and authenticated .
If it is a requirement NDVO would have asked when scrtinising the documents. Further subsequent to the Supreme Court Direction to All State Governments to make necessary Acts making the marriage registration compulsory. 2009 onwards registration is compulsory. NDVO can get the document scrtinised through their agents if they have any doubt on those documents. If essential this would have been asked specifically by CIC.
Under this backdrop I feel it is not necessary.

Thanks for the explanation. Both bodhyogi and myself stand corrected. 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of the people who applied for spousal visa did not have them attested by the "ministry of external affairs", I have no idea who started this misconception.

Finally I heard something from NDVO . I got an Email interview scheduled on June 4th at8:45am. Interview will be held in New Delhi. I hope everything will be okay and they will be fair with us. M so worried. Almost 11 months after I feel little bit relieved and also worried bout the interview.

Most applicants from Paris, Sydney etc are getting PR in 4-5 months even though most countries in Europe are visa waiver countries. I think there is some amount of racism involved in this processing time.

 

[sunsweet]

still no any updates from long weekend for july 2013 applicants,,how many of them got the visa ?

The forum has only a few members. Many have not shared their timeline. Earlier some people were maintaining the spreadsheet and they collected the informations. If you scrtinize records you would fine a lot of pending cases where there is no activity of the members in the forum.
these members were active for some period and vanished after getting visa without updating may be or we dont know the fate.
Some enter in the forum to get solutions to their problems but do not share the timeline.
Some do not know how to update so they do not update and just post the timeline in the correspondence which is not updated. Let us wait for our turn to come and pray to get our visa faster.

We never had this attestation, we had an interview, they never ask for that and my hubby got visa last week. So don't worry. The only thing I would say is it might depend of which type of marriage certificate you have. In our case we had the hindu ceremony one but we also went in court to get our marriage register under special marriage act. It is true that Canada are not accepting every types of marriage certificates. But if they called you for interview without asking you previously to present a new marriage certificate I believe you're ok. As they wouldn't approved the sponsor and reach the interview level if they don't consider you officially married. This is my opinion only. Maybe I am wrong but for sure I know that if you are married under special marriage act you don't need an attestation for the interview.

We don't need job exp letter, however you do need the original of any copy you provided in your application. It doesn't mean that they will ask, but they can. For pictures, they surely look at them in the interview, but they don't necessarily ask for the same ones that you already provided but any extra pictures that you got after applications if any. They really like to see what happened since the application.
