NEW DELHI - 2014 APPLICANTS

Gurutaj - My wife is also in the same boat. Her medicals too expired and the doctor said the same thing. I would wait until the NDVO specifically calls for remedical because at times one just needs to repeat chest x-ray and not the whole tests or at times they overlook the remedicals and issue the visas.

Thanks Fiza for replying to my queries yesterday. I had applied for my wife's CGMS status on 5th February and it was sent back as there were some minor errors. Corrected it and sent it back on 12th Feb. So guess even that is a waiting game. At least until 14th March. Hope something clicks for both of us as we are in the same boat.

Not sure why they are delaying second marriage cases.

I agree. They are considering second marriage as a consiperancy to get PR to Canada....these idiots morons need to understand every second marriage is not a fraud.....

15 months of wait to be with your partner....what the hell were they thinking.

We received the intervew letter on 28th Jan. We then immediately applied for GCMS notes. The notes arrived in the nick of time on the 27th of Feb. But the notes didnt mention the concern that the officer had.
It only said-"file sent for interview". It seems to me that my file was a random pick for an interview. Because upon reflecting on the questions she asked, i dont think there was any significant issue that she was tryign to clarify.

Thanks Mainak, you have been lucky to get the interview letter so early. Some people from 2013 forum and Jan/feb applicant from 2014 are still waiting for their turn.

Good Luck! hope your wife gets ppr soon.

Scary thing is that 80% of cases took 15 months :O .. . what the helll .. why so long

They have given cumulative %. So 80% cases did not take 15 months. 80% cases took 15 months or LESS.

20% took 8 months or less.
30% took 9 months or less.
50% took 10 months or less
70% took 13 months or less
80% took 15 months or less.

So best case is hoping for 8 months or less and worst case is 15 months according to CIC.
But we know that some 2013 files are waiting beyond the 15 months mark.

There have been lot of protests, petitions being signed for inland sponsorship increasing processing times. A lot of buzz has been created on twitter and NDP leader, CBC as a media house is also supporting this petition.
Wonder if we can do something like that as well. 15 months is way to long and this doesn't include the time taken for SA approval

I have been thinking about that for the longest time now. Since past a few months ever since I read that CBC post about it.

Do you know anyone we can contact to start the petition. If we can do something like that and get atleast 10,000 signatures, it can be very helpful. Federal elections are also up later in Fall.....it can give us added advantage.

What you think?

Hi Magicman
Please let me know..

Fiza- I believe this petition thing that you brought up is a good idea. However my question to you is, what is the outcome of this petition? Do you think they would care seriously enough to clear the backlogs or would it be something like a TV program (like the Buck Stops Here on NDTV from India) where signatures are obtained and some pep talk is done after which no one cares. Your take on this?

Secondly yes, not every 2nd marriage is fraud. Despite the fact that people in the western world get to know each other and get into live in relationships, their marriages fail. These morons should look at these facts too because these days the craze to come and settle down in the western world (as it existed prior to 2002) has come down in India as there are many opportunities present there already.

My case was quite different - I moved to India two yrs ago and then worked with a top company in Hyderabad, and then got married, lived with my wife for almost a year besides going to London and Dubai for a holiday post marriage with her (attached all these as proofs) and now the frustration seems unsettling. Aussie, Kiwi and Union Jack's immigration processing is far superior than Canada's. God help us!

I don't know how much this petition will help. Just throwing an arrow in the dark. But one thing is for sure, applicants for inland Sponsorship are atleast keeping their issues forward where as no one is aware of the hardship that outland sponsorship applicants go through. We are basically asked to live seperately from our partners for almost 2 years for no fault of ours.Just beacuse CIC is not able to process our files in timely manner. This is inhumane.

I don't think they care how long we lived together. When they see second marriage, a flag is raised and your file enters a never ending waiting game. Some lucky people get out early depending on which sensible visa officer is handling their file while others get stuck.

Correctly said Fiza - Wonder which Einstein is working on our files. Only pray that God instils some wiser sense and processes papers quickly.
