[user828]

is it true that the immigration dont give visas during decembers because of holiday season?

They must have holidays just like any govt office, could be possibly of less staff as some might come to Canada to see their families, but I doubt they shut shop

Birth Certificate = Original
Rest = Notarized/Certified Copies

I was thinking the birth certificate and the school certificates have to be original

Passport and document submission


Passports may be submitted through VFS [www.vfs-canada.co.in] using one of the 10 Visa Application centres located across India and in Nepal. Provided the application and travel documents are in order, passports submitted through VFS will be returned within 7 working days.

Passports may also be sent to the High Commission for Canada in New Delhi through secured mail deliverers (hand delivery will not be accepted). Provided the application and travel documents are in order, passports submitted through this means will be returned within 30 working days. Mailing address: High Commission of Canada 7/8 Shantipath, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi 110 021, India

Oh yeah, school ones too

 

[ranja]

also one more clarification in the "Instructions for Medical Examination - A" form send via email

under who should be examined: PR applications
it states that "All persons listed as immediate family members on your principal application form (IMM 0008) must be examined, whether or not they are accompanying you to Canada"

Does it only related to dependents who have been added to the imm0008 form???

I have another sibling who is not a dependent and has not been added to the imm0008 form, do they need to undergo medical testing as well???

Thanks.

No, VFS is only for PP submission and so far only CPP-O'ers have this luxury since they don't have to give the docs twice and meds were done. If VFS is an option, they will tell you and VFS passport 'send and return' is a quick job, and ND LVO have to send it directly to them where they will sit on it for approx 2 months

=========================
5.10. Non-accompanying family members
Applicants must declare all family members when applying for a visa and must again declare all
family members, whether accompanying or not, prior to obtaining permanent resident
status. Permanent residents who did not declare all their family members on their application are
reportable under A44(1) [see also “Sponsor who may be subject to an A44(1) report” (section 10.5
below) and “Misrepresentation” (section 5.22 below)]. In addition, all family members, whether
accompanying or not, must be examined, unless the appropriate officer determines that they are
not required by the Act or the former Act to examine the family member [R117(10)]. Family
members who were not declared and examined are excluded from the family class and may not
be sponsored at a later date as per R117(9)(d) unless R117(10) applies.
Non-accompanying family members must undergo medical examinations. They must also
establish that they are not inadmissible for criminal or security reasons. If the requirement for
minimum necessary income is applicable, sponsors must demonstrate that they can support all
family members, including non-accompanying family members.

Non-accompanying family members need not be in possession of a passport or travel document.

Ok but I don't have to add their information to the IMM0008 form since they are not dependants????

Thanks for the reply.
