Re: FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[stayblessed]

Dear Friends,

I have a small query.

I am a CVO applicant and I got my MR last week.Although my application is processing in CVO, I am living and working here in Singapore.

I did my medicals and now I am ready to courier my MR,PCC and RPRF receipts to CVO, But I don't know where they will send my Passport request to. means to which VO will they ask me to submit my passport to.

Do you guys know (from the past cases by other members in this forum) will they send the PPR to Singapore (where i live) or will they send it to Colombo?

Should i send a special request mail included with my MR,RPRF and PCC to them asking to send the PPR to S'pore VO?

Looking forward to get your valuable advises on this doubt.

Thank you!

Firstly, does VO aware that you are currently working in Singapore? If yes then you ned to raise CSE explaining about your situation and they should allow for passports to be stamped at Singapore. All the best!!

truly said bro that it is difficult to take personal & professional decisions before getting a PPR mail............
my DM on 9 may........my visa office is warsaw..............from2014 spread sheet it look that WVO issues PPR after 23 or 25 days after DM.......

Well no idea why DM first and PPR later, but this wait is killing. Do you have any idea as to how long does NDVO take to send PPRs after DM ?

I doubt there is a specific timeline for this Priya, with NDVO it can take anywhere between 7-30 days. All the best!!

Hello Friends,

I have got my PR and planning to land in Toronto on the 23rd of June. I am married, but will bring my wife once I get settled there.

I am looking out for like minded individuals who can share accommodation/rent during my initial 2-3 months. Anybody landing around the same time?? Please PM me if anybody is interested.

I am a software engineer, born and brought up in delhi but parents are from kerala. Rest can be discussed offline.


Thanks a lot!!

NDVO is working today. I just got a email asking for additional medical tests for my wife.

Further medical information is required before a decision can be reached. Details have been sent to your eMedical file regarding the medical information required. Please return to see the Panel Physician who performed your immigration medical examination or to another eMedical enabled Panel Physician (http://www.cic.gc.ca/dmp-md/medical.aspx). The Panel Physician will arrange for the additional medical tests to be carried out and will forward the results directly to this office.

Booking tickets
------------------------------

1.Never book tickets on 3rd party sites and always choose Airlines site .

2.Carefully check your stops and layover time if there are multiple stops on your way to Canada .Try to avoid all transit visa routes.

3.Prefer morning Canada arrival time when you are booking tickets which will ensure you land in Canada morning in week day and dont end up landing in mid night or late evening.

4.Jet airways,Etihad,Lufthansa,BA(But most cheap tickets from BA requires US transit visa as they land in NYC and then Canada) are very common in this route and offer tickets at reasonable prices

5.When you are booking tickets online ensure you have entered your name correctly as in passports or else any chnages will require you to pay extra money( which can go as high as 5-10k depending on the airlines)

6.Ticket prices keep changing so keep checking .When you are browsing facebook and also opening airlines site you might see airlines promotions in form of banners showing you can click that promotion and book avail that promotion .Some airlines also advertise promo codes ,keep chekcing them if any and use them as you might save some 10 percent on the flight ticket

7.All major ailrines for economy ticket provide 2 checkin baggages X 23 kg and 1 Cabin baggageof 7kg. Look out for specification of baggages as well on airlines site.

8.Pack all your luggage yourself and dont let anyone pack your luggage.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my experience and opinion guys please do enough research when you book tickets as ticket cancellations can burn money in your pocket for no reason.

Excellent !!!

When are you flying?

Mine sent thru vfs on 11th and received back on 15th.

I received MR for my child on 15th May.

I noticed today that NDVO has mis-spelled my child's 1st name everywhere.

I am worried that since we are almost through the drill, we don't want any one of us having a wrongly spelt name on our PR cards, if and when we receive.

Writing an email/letter/CSE to NDVO, making them aware of this error, should be enough to have them rectify this? or is there a different procedure?

All ID proofs I submitted to NDVO did have my child's name spelt correctly, so I didn't give any wrong info to NDVO

Please guide.
