RQ Received on Test date

1) Could you please let me know how long will it take to hear from CIC or judge hearing after RQ submission?

2) How to proof that a social ties in Canada. Could that be active membership in community/religious organization/ donate money to foodbank

I got RQ during the interview on a test day. The office didn't explain anything she flips through my passports ( current /expired) and seen my previous H1B visa in usa before I arrived in Vancouver. I terminated my employment before coming here in Vancouver but the expiry date in a visa was last until 2007( I moved to Van in 2006). And also I left my old job 3 months ago to find a better job and went to stay my wife , who is student in usa, I am planning to return back to work next month in Vancouver. The officer asked me about a spouse visa and why did I left my job 3 months ago. I told her that I am in between jobs, and am looking for new job in vancouver. She didn't trusted me.!


I have 45 days to submit RQ and all documents, including a specific requested CBSA trip reports that she mark"x" in my RQ form. I did sent a request to CBSA and on tracking number showing that my mail was delivered today. She also ask for proof of employments, income tax, and proof of residence and receive of payments, credit card bank statements, and so on.it is going to be huge package.

I have also talked to some company during this job hunting, and 1-2 company now are willing to employ me as soon as I will be back to Vancouver Will resume employment help my situation? I could ask them to write a letter and attach to a RQ package before submit.

So please let me know if it won't take that long to hear from vancouver office again?
Thanks so much

I have received my RQ on my test day July 31 in Vancouver. The official told me to fill up the form and mail it back within 45 days. He said that RQ doesnt mean that anything wrong with my application, it just to help Judge to review my case. But when I went home and read through it, it does require lots documents.....it's gonna be a big package. I did ask him that do I really have to wait 2 to 5 months? He said it depends on the Judge.
