I know... where are you located? I am in Nanaimo, B.C.. I am sponsoring my wife from Tunisia. But I am actually not an Arab, a Chinese Canadian instead. we met in China a few years ago; when she was studying there and I was visiting my family. lol. we met at an alumni party in my old Chinese school. then after we reunited again this year in Tunis. We got married. We are both in our 30s.. inshallah.... Sirenane.. have you had this kinda of feeling? without a certainty of the PR; i cant even plan my future.. like where to buy a home; have a kid. ....It's a beautiful spring now on Vancouver Island; I just wish my wife can see everything..

We are the same day!!! That's cool!!! Let's hope it's all smooth sailing from here on!!! Nice to hear about your journey yijiequ, thank you for sharing!! ;D I'm in Spain... I have been for 15 yrs. I am from Alberta though and before that, the Okanogan. I met my husband 7 yrs. ago and we've been married for 3 yrs. in May. Keep your head up and know that all will come together as it should Right now we are in limbo as well... waiting... but I know that it is just a matter of time. Talk about your common plans together and stay in the positive. The universe has a way of coming through Vancouver and the island are very beautiful in all seasons and soon she WILL experience it by your side.

I just wish my wife come ASAP. you left for a while; you dont know how crazy Nanaimo becomes. Nanaimo now is the bedroom community of Vancouver. Has more people than Victoria these days. ahhh. just wish my wife can come and we gonna buy a home and have a kid soon.

15 years.. wow... so did you give them your email address? if so, I guess we dont get an AOR letter; hopefully that also means we know our Ecas quicker.

I also feel worried about how VO looks at us. we are an interracial marriage. I am an Asian male and she is an Arab female. It's not even common.. lol.. are you coming back soon? the reason why I asked; someone suggests me to go to my local MP; if the wait is too long. Maybe you can consider that route too but i dont know how that gonna work; when you are not here.

Hey,

I've been reading that Paris is generally on the faster side of things when it comes to processing PR's. Though, I'm wondering with this new change the CIC has implemented has it slowed them down? Previously when it showed 7 months and now it shows 17, does that mean they are taking applications from places that normally wouldn't be for Paris to slow things down there but speed it up elsewhere?

So far we've submitted medical, criminal, all the fees, received SA approval and the "third line" on the PA side of things. Which the "third line" showed up April 1st. I guess now it's the waiting game and it could be a couple months or a lot of months?

Just looking for any input!

Thanks

 

[yijiequ]

This is my question too. although i would imagine it's not the case; you need local VOs who are familiar with their region. can't imagine they process say London or Vienna cases. My wife is a Tunisian; so majority of documents are in French. So I hope they only deal with French speaking nationals. i can be wrong too.

I agree that it should be within the region. It is funny, my wife is Spanish, though there is no VO in Spain that processes the applications.

I'm quite certain that all the VO's are very strong in English/French as all documents must be in either or. It would have been a lot easier if I could have left all my wife's doc's in Spanish! haha

I didnt translate some part of the email corresponding between us.. cuz my wife also can write Chinese. lol.. but most of our email was in English. i know exactly what you mean.

you know what's even funny? in Tunisia, their police check was half French half Arabic; so we still have to translate it.. ahhh.. lol.

Hello,

I am living in spain and I am sharing my timeline !

Application Recieved by CIC Missisauga: 16 Oct 2015
AOR1: 25 Nov 2015
Sponsorship Approved: 15 Dic 2016
File transferred to Paris Visa Office: 3 Feb 2016
Ecas changed to "in process": 3 Feb 2016
Medical results recieved Status updated: Medical results have been received.
Decisin Made: ?
PPR email: ?

I have not had to attach more documentation, but I have sent emails to CIC to see if everything goes well and they have answered me fast with everything going well. I have seen some average times for Paris, and I think we should have an email soon.
The only thing I have not commanded are police certificates, do you think I should send that already?

Good Luck to everyone
