Paris Office Timeline

[forja]

Thanks! Just got the letter for SA approval and that the app has been sent to Paris.

Since submitting the app, I've renewed my passport. Does anyone know how to contact the VO to update the passport page? I'm from a visa-exempt country. Ecas still just says "app received" so I'm not sure if it's made its way over to Paris from Mississauga yet. Does Paris give AOR2?

hi rs33 well you can contact paris visa office at the following email : paris-immigration@international.gc.ca .
just write your file number on the message title and on the message you want to send them , so they can localize your file . and you can attach photocopy of your passport with email .

Hi guys, The timeline for me on Outland Family Sponsorship trough Visa Office of Paris is as followed:

1) Application received the 7th of April 2015.
2) Started processing my application on June 8th 2015.
3) Application approved the 10th of June 2015.
4) CSQ application received at MIDI around 27th of June 2015 (had to wait for the official SA email).
5) MIDI witdrawn fee from my VISA card on 7th of July 2015.
6) Visa Office of Paris requesting CSQ document on 15th of July 2015.
7) CSQ application approved 31st of July 2015.
8) Letter of CSQ approval in mail by 4th of August 2015.

E-cas status for Paris has in the meantime remained unchanged, however letter of CSQ approval mentioned that my VISA office should have received notice of their decision. I wonder therefore I should still send a scan of the CSQ approval to the Visa Offica of Paris or not.

Also, I am in the meantime working under a Worker's Holiday Program Work Permit that will expire the 15th of September. I wonder if anybody knows a way to get an extension (even though it states you cannot for Belgium) or get another work permit while I wait for an answer. Also, any idea on a further timeline on how much longer I will need to wait until I finally reach the moment they inform me I am a permanent resident or not?

Thanks to everybody answering with any helpful info.

Thanks forja for the links.

You know, I've sent them last Friday an update on our relationship with mor pictures to the family members and the plan for the future events with booking papers.

I hope that the update has played a role in them finalizing the relationship assessment process!!

So, hopefully by end of Aug my wife will receive the passport request. Then, we can book the tickets. Fingers crossed !

Hi guys, The timeline for me on Outland Family Sponsorship trough Visa Office of Paris is as followed:

1) Application received the 7th of April 2015.
2) Started processing my application on June 8th 2015.
3) Application approved the 10th of June 2015.
4) CSQ application received at MIDI around 27th of June 2015 (had to wait for the official SA email).
5) MIDI witdrawn fee from my VISA card on 7th of July 2015.
6) Visa Office of Paris requesting CSQ document on 15th of July 2015.
7) CSQ application approved 31st of July 2015.
8) Letter of CSQ approval in mail by 4th of August 2015.

E-cas status for Paris has in the meantime remained unchanged, however letter of CSQ approval mentioned that my VISA office should have received notice of their decision. I wonder therefore I should still send a scan of the CSQ approval to the Visa Offica of Paris or not.

Also, I am in the meantime working under a Worker's Holiday Program Work Permit that will expire the 15th of September. I wonder if anybody knows a way to get an extension (even though it states you cannot for Belgium) or get another work permit while I wait for an answer. Also, any idea on a further timeline on how much longer I will need to wait until I finally reach the moment they inform me I am a permanent resident or not?

Thanks to everybody answering with any helpful info.

Nobody?

No harm in sending them a scan of the CSQ by email........its just an email.

Just checked ecas and it says in process! Haven't received AOR2 but am guessing that this means that it arrived safely on the other side of the Atlantic =)

Where does it say "In Process". In Sponsorship Status Area or in PR Status Area?
