How was your experience? Which is better GYD or CMM? When do they upload reports

Hey, I don't know about GYD, but I had a good experience at CMM. They were well organised and everything went smoothly.

Ray of Hope thread - my second home, where I learned and grew up with people who have the same dream as mine.

Having said that, it is just right to post the good news to all of you here.

After exactly 6 months, 07-Mar-2018 at 9:33 ET, I received the golden email. My husband @xibalban already posted our appreciation to all who have helped us realise our Canadian dream. But I want to personally I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. Rest assured I will never leave this great online community.

My timeline:
PNP-O, SGVO
01-Aug-17 Nomination (OINP timeline in my signature)
02-Aug-17 ITA
07-Sep-17 AOR
04-Oct-17 IP1/ADR (Travel History)
10-Oct-17 NA2/MEP (after uploading ADR)
07-Nov-17 File transfer to SGVO
13-Dec-17 Phone interview (child custody)
20-Dec-17 IP2 (added spouse on the same day)
07-Mar-18 PPR

I got married to @xibalban, whom I met in this forum. I never thought the delay was because of marrying him but BGC had really taken a longer time or SGVO is just too slow.

Timeline of adding him to my application:
01-Dec-17 marriage
13-Dec-17 inform CIC of the marriage
20-Dec-17 sent spouse documents to SGVO via email, spouse name and UCI added to CIC account
13-Jan-17 request to upload spouse documents to CIC account

Since IP2 on 20-Dec, Security has been “Not Started” from the two GCMS notes that we requested. I was under the impression that I am in SS because of my extensive overseas travels and work experience in Saudi Arabia, then marrying an Indian (interfaith marriage). But God is so good, we got our PPR!

To my fellow Canadian dreamers, never stop believing. Where there is a will, there will always be a way. It may be a bumpy road but we will get there. Not soon for most of us, but we will, later.

Keep the hope alive!

Love lots,
Christy

Hi Christy,

My case is similar to yours. I'm adding my spouse post AOR, as i got married in dec 2018 . I've informed CIC of my marriage in january 2019 and they've requested me to submit spouse documents within a month. But there's no mention of UCI for my spouse, what do i enter in the UCI box for spouse then? And can you please enlighten me about signing the forms for Additional family and Schedule A Background Declaration as there's no electronically signing option available. Do i fill the form,print-scan and then upload it?
Also when did your husband get his medicals done? was it post document submission? because my email says, "Your spouse or common-law partner (CLP) and their dependent children, whether or not they will be accompanying you to Canada, will have to undergo a medical examination by an authorized CIC panel physician. We will send you the appropriate forms upon receipt and review of the documents listed above.
Can you please specify the forms you have filled out additionaly for yourself and your spouse post marriage? Need help at earliest.

Thanks in advance,
Rubina

Experts please....
I am holding a PhD and teaching at a high school teaching A-levels and AP curriculum offered by US collegeboard. In my EE, I selected 4031 (secondary school teachers). But this category also required a 4 years Bachelors in education after my bachelors. Is it really required or it’s only a condition to work in Canadian public schools? Because here in my country, it’s not a condition with Ph.D or having Masters? Can I still use 4031?
Hello Dr. Kahn,
I also teach AP at a private high school in the U.S -- do you think that I can claim NOCI of 4021 rather than 4031? I also have a Masters in the subject and not a B.Ed. Which would you suggest? Which were you admitted as ? Thank you!
