September 2013 Applications

[RiskyPrisky]

Thanks iamroth.

Regarding point 1: I was going through the CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp) just now. As per the website: Upfront Medical Exam is only applicable to certain "Family Class Applications". I feel probably not everybody can do Upfront Medicals.

Regarding point 2: I think this surely can be done in advance.

Cheers

1. You can do Up-front medicals.
2. You can make Up-front payments for RPRF.

BUT... a lot of people had issues with it. Especially with up-front medicals.
Some times they don't reach CIC on time.
Some times they struggle to 'connect' it to your application, thus it gets lost.
Some times you have very little time to land, before your visa expires.

If money is not an issue (in the case you have to do it again later), you can do Up-front medicals.
There is nothing wrong with it.

Yah as I said it is kind of gray zone, lots of CEC applicants have completed up-front medicals successfully.
And lots did upfront but got Medical request again, and they had to email the doctor, CIC, and pull up the record again somehow, then got PPR.

It mostly depends on the Doctors i think, if they correctly link it to your AOR/account, then it will go smoothly.
But in general, we go to doctors with a form given to us by CIC. So that form helps CIC find our record.
For upfront, there is no such forms. That's why it is very easy to lose the record. And CIC will request medical again...

It is upto you. You can spend couple of hundred $$$, and if all goes smooth, they will ask for Passport.
Down side, they can't find your record, and asks you to do it again.

Wanted to keep you guys posted on my address change.
I changed my address after receiving the AOR using the online change of address tool
on the CIC website.
After 5 days my mailing and home address got updated, without receiving an email notification.

Just so you're aware, that there might not be a confirmation or anything when updating the address.


Still waiting to hear back about my passport update tho.

In additional family information form, is it mandatory to write names in native language too. I have written all names in English and not in my native language. Is there any problem because of this?

According to the form,

... must complete their own copy of this form. Complete ALL names in English and in your native language...

So I guess it is mandatory. Not sure if not filling out in native language will have consequences tho. If you've
already received the AOR, fill out a new form and mail/email to CPP-O.

Not received AOR currently. Can I send it without receiving AOR?

Chances are that if you send without AOR that CIC won't be able to find your application.
Wait for AOR, then send the form.

Thanks Toby, it makes sense.

Is there any chances, they will send my application back, because of this only. Have you heard of any case like this before.
