Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Depends on the validity of your visa
One needs to land before the expiry of his visa (it can be even five days before expiry). But after getting a PR card with a validity of 5 years, for renewal of the card, you are supposed to be physically present in Canada for 730 days from the date of permanent residence (the date you landed in Canada). Means once landed, during immediate next five years, you can stay outside Canada for three years without losing your permanent residence status.

Time spent living in Canada
When you are a permanent resident, you can live outside of Canada, but must live in Canada for at least two years in a five-year period. If you live outside of Canada for longer, you may lose your permanent resident status.

For more information on how long you have to live in Canada, see Appendix A: Residency obligation of the PR card application package.

Waiting for PPR more than 60 days & no PPR yet! Is there anyone who is waiting for PPR since Oct?

That is very odd and stressful! Have you tried emailing and sending CSE? Or contacting your MP? It definitely shouldn't have stayed at DM for this long.
 
Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Salaams, for those who have had the fortune to land recently, do you have any tips/ advice for a smooth traveling process especially customs? It would help anyone planning future traveling, thank you!

Could someone PM me to explain whether you receive your SIN card at the airport or apply for it later?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Sallams,

ALLAH ka bhut bhut shukar..!! The long ordeal process of 1 year 5 months and 27 days finally comes to an end..!! my wife received her passports back from CHC Islamabad with the visa. :) and in the marriage of 1 year 11 months only spend 70 days with her went through all remeds, additional docs, notes CSE and what not..!!! but really thanks to ALLAH for finishing this process for us and Pray for all of you that you get to meet your loved ones really soon. :)

It took 12 days for PPR to get processed. and amazingly 5 days from DM to PPR. Well I think because of the baby my case was not normal anymore, don't get depressed by these numbers.

I want to thank all of you who were always there when we need help, consoling , guidance , inspiration..!! special thank to all members who helped me on PMs also to mercy24 for creating that wonderful spreadsheet.

I will be here helping others whenever and wherever I can from my experience.

Wow Congrats Masha Allah!

Please for me and everyone as well. My wife's timeline is about the same as yours, applied in May 2015 and file transferred in July 2015 but havent heard anything yet from LVO or any update on the ECAS,
 
Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Got a question. Does the applicant receive passport request in mail or email? So far I (sponsor) have been receiving correspondence via email and while filling the application, I provided my wife's email address too. So would LVO or Islamabad office send passport request via mail or email to my wife/me?

Most probably on your or your wife's email. For us everything (remed, additional docs, PPR) all came on her email. If email is given everything will come to it only original docs will be send by mail.
