parents sponsership joine here

[cmandy]

Hi BMM when you fill out application did you request Ottawa office to process,I am asking as I did this but they still send my mothers application to her country local office and not Ottawa ,my mom is here on super visa as well.I apply to extend her stay in October as well.Not sure why they send application back home to process when my mom is in Canada] and I clearly send proof of her status.Did you write a separate letter to request to process in Ottawa.Please let me know,thanks.

I have an important question from experienced members. I have applied for my mother and sister's sponsorship back in 2009. File was transferred to London office in Jan 2014. My sister is turning 23 this year, and is getting engaged.

I want to know if she gets married/nikkah done only. Would she be removed from my mother's file? What if we only do nikah and wait for court marriage until she gets her immigration? Any suggestions? She is an international student in usa and the guy is Canadian citizen.

She has to remain single and dependent if she wants to come under parental sponsorship. But who knows how much longer that will take, and when the decision will be made by Islamabad/London.

If she gets married then she will be out of mother's file, and won't be considered dependent. So 1 less person under LICO too....looks better for sponsorship. Even a Nikah would (technically) make her responsibility of husband..

If the guy she is going to marry is a Canadian, they should get nikah/married/registered and then he can sponsor her right away.
It will be easier/faster, and for sure she will get spousal visa in about 1 yrs time under spousal family class. Even faster as she is in usa.

I think it's better for her to marry him and come in that way.
That way you're not responsible for her undertaking anymore (her husband will be instead).

True.

I asked them to process from here. But you have to attach the proof that your parents will stay in canada for one year from the day you submit application

Thanks Canvis. I do not have issue with maintaining the LICO limit. I and my husband have really good jobs. I am not concerned about sponsorship, but about process. I want her to have the quicker entry into Canada, which would be under parents' sponsorship. It is already 6th year since application was filed. Hopefully it is finalized within this year.

Is this your AOR. if so then next stage is sponsorship approval and transfer to LVO.what is your timeline.when did you apply and what date did you send your documents.

 

[8221129]

I submitted the application in Feb/2011. I received the mail to request more document in August/2014. I mailed out the documents in Oct/2014 and received the mail saying the documents received in Jan/2015.
Do you know typically how long it take to get the approval?

Mine took exactly 7 weeks after I received AOR.

 

[8221129]

Sorry what is AOR stand for?

 

[8221129]

I think the AOR is the letter from CIC to inform me that the additional documents received and the application is completed, right?
If yes my AOR is on 8/jan/2015.

Hi soonihope,

with 7 weeks you received another mail to inform you the sponsor is approved and the case send to the LVO?

Thanks

I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask this...I am sorry if it is not.

Was wondering if anyone had any experience in this situation....My Husbands parents are failed refugee claimants and would like to come back to Canada. Is it possible to get an ARK letter and them be allowed to visit Canada without applying for PR for them? They`re country is now a visa exempt country.
