Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Hello Everyone!

Thanks for continuing and maintaining this thread for people to get information from. I have submitted my wife and child sponsorship application in July 2016 by following advice from you guys on this thread.

I have 2 questions and will be glad if you can answer to these queries

1. I submitted the application through UPS to CPC Missisauga which was received on 12th July. I received my whole application back within 3 days as i forgot to submit 150 dollar additional dependent fee for my child i submitted the fee at once and sent the application again through canada post and someone named R Mahmood received it on 19th July. On the first post of this thread, it is mentioned that it take them 1 week to 10 days for them to confirm that they have received the application. Its been around 15 days now but i have not received any mail from them. Has the time changed? how much do they take now to confirm? I am worried because it has all the original documents (NikahNama, Birth certificates, Educational documents,Family lists, etc) that they requested and as you know that god forbid if i lost these documents it would be very difficult to get them again. Do they respond and confirm that they received it, if i call them?)

2. I wanted to know what you think of my case? is it straight forward and can be processed quickly? following are the details of my case?

I got pr in late 2013 went back and married in early 2014 after that i stayed in pakistan with my wife for around 2 and half years. During this time we had our son who is around 10 months old now. We submitted all the right documents requested by immigration office. We didn't had proof of conversation as we lived together but we had tons of pictures to proof this. We sent around 100 pictures as proof. Which covered all 2 and half years we stayed to gather in pakistan. It included, Wedding pictures,honeymoon,vacations, family events, cousins wedding, Son's birth, etc. We think that these pictures along with all the right official documents are the main strong proof of our relationship. I included maintaining contact records like ,phone calls, messages, whatsapp, skype calls screenshots and logs as proof, from the date i came to canada.

What do you guys think about our case? is it straight forward and can be fast tracked? Does anyone had a similar case before? as you all know its very difficult to stay away from your child and wife. My son is only 10 months old and don't want to miss seeing him growing up :(.

Thanks

NAh... You have applied for PR and you will get it within few months of arrival.. Its citizenship though which you will get after living 3 years consecutive or 3 out of 5 years (according to bill passed now)

1. It usually takes up to 25 days to send you AOR1 (Acknowledgment of Receipt). Mine took 20 days. You might never get it at all and get SA.

2. Your application looks straight forward. Plus you have spent more than two years together and have a baby as well. I don't think CIC will take long to approve your marriage as a Genuine Relationship. However, since there is dependant in the application, I don't know if that takes more time :'(

Other people here should have more info on that.

Hopefully that's how it is cause 1 of my friend's wife came and she got conditional PR card which means she can't leave Canada for 2 or 3 years and than she will get PR card and than after that she need to live in Canada for 3 years to get citizenship

Hi Waleed30,

Conditional PR doesn't stop one from leaving Canada. One can leave Canada and come back with conditional PR.

Conditional PR means they must live together for two years. If they separate in those two years, the PR can be revoked. After two years of living together, the condition ends.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

i know that the PR card is given after about 3 months, but what if my wife needs to travel before she gets her card? can she reenter canada just by showing them the COPR in her passport?
