Well, do we really have a choice? They are doing as they wish, but it's a call for ppl to make sure not to vote them again. They've messed it up big time!
Ur right... we don't have a choice... they can do as they please with our applications.... the least they could do is update us on the status of our applications.... they don't even do that... y do we have to order notes to get updates on our files.... the e-case system should b robust enough to provide us with real-time info on our applications....

Wut is even more obvious to me through conservative govt's handling of our files is that they want to discourage us from sponsoring our spouses.... who r they to tell us who we can and cannot marry!!.... I thought this was a democracy we were living in!!.... I'm sure even the citizens of Russia n China (communist countries) are able to bring their wives from outside the country sooner than us in Canada can even dream about.... These guys always boast bout upholding human rights in third world countries.... wut bout the rights of their citizens in their own countries?!!

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for some assistance because I have e-mailed the LVO and they didn't really give a clear answer. My application is for my husband in Pakistan, filed in May 2013, approved to sponsor in June 2013, file transferred from Islamabad to LVO in January 2014 and on August 20, 2014 my husband received an e-mail from LVO requesting more wedding pictures, re-medical, etc. and that we had 60 days to send it to the LVO. The address in the e-mail we received on Aug 20, 2014 was:

High Commission of Canada
Immigration Section
38 Grosvenor Street
London W1K 4AA

This is the address where my husband sent the additional requested things from Pakistan through a DHL courier and it was signed for on Oct 14, 2014 however, after reviewing the LVO website the address it says to send all matters regarding immigration I saw that the address written there is:
1 Grosvenor Square W1K 4AB.

So which is the correct address to send it to? I am really worried because he already sent everything to 38 Grosvenor Street, do both buildings deal with matters of immigration? I don't understand why the original e-mail we got had a different address than what is written on the website. When I e-mailed LVO to ask them this their response was that they can't confirm every receipt of mailed documents because they receive too many documents. Can anyone help me or tell me who we can call to find out if it was sent to the right place?? Thank you.

PLZ don't worry correct address is the same where you sent your documents. 1 G is for information of pp and visa information. Even if you send your documents to 1 G. These will reach immigration section by your FILE #.same building with 2 different entries from 2 different roads.

Yes it is okay, the first stage is sponsor approval and nothing to do with the applicant.

you have to write a cover letter stating ur relationship and trying to display ur case to them so far... for the visa office there is a form in which you have to write down which visa office you want ur file sent to, even if you put down ISL, Pak... the file will be sent to Lon...

This is completely ridiculous... its like a Ping-Pong game they've started.... paki applications from 2011, 2012 would have gone from Mississauga to CPP-O then to Ilsamabad then to London then back to CPP-O... where r they gonna send them next??.... Timbuktu??!...lol.... this is just further evidence of the conservative govt failing the CIC.... this needs to end... I highly doubt this will speed things up.... this will cause more confusion n ppl's original documents will b lost in this stupid Ping-Pong game!..... there needs to be a major overhaul.... MP Anderson needs to show some results!
original files never go anywhere... only electronic files travel... :) cheers...

You send it to the address specified in the letter, so you've done it correctly. :)

Assuming the principal applicant is Pakistani, then yes, you put London. Once you send off your application, do you mind if I add you to the spreadsheet (linked in my signature)? Details below...

Stage 1 is only applicable to the sponsor, so this is normal. Do you mind if I add you to the spreadsheet? We are tracking applications filed directly with London for Pakistani applicants to see how processing times are changing for London, the spreadsheet is linked in my signature.

For you and esma and anyone else reading, if you have applied and had your file go directly from Mississauga to London (NOT via Islamabad), then I'd like to add you to the spreadsheet linked in my signature.

Please post the following information (as much as you have):

-Date application received in Mississauga
-Whether you applied as Married or Common-Law
-Date of sponsor approval
-Which office is processing Phase 2 of your application (will say on your sponsor approval letter/email)
-Date(s) of any other requests you've had
-Whether or not the principal applicant is non-visa exempt
-Current location of the principal applicant- closest major city is fine if you don't want to be too specific!

Cheers!

You probably are fake yourself! If you take the trouble to open the link you will find what you need. Stop being rude all the time.
