Not a problem as far as CIC is concerned. Your mother-in-law might want to let her bank know she's making a large charge if she doesn't regularly use the card. Also she's using it in Canada if she lives outside Canada.mosaab said:
Thank you so much for the fast replyLeon said:
it really does help me make sense of all of this. He is a US citizen and thus visa exempt if i understand correctly and has entered Canada this last time as a tourist with only his passport. We will be getting married in Canada first and then travelling for our ceremony/honeymoon after the fact so will legally be married before we leave here, as well as have his inland application in progress. 
As a foreign national he does not have the right to enter Canada. However, the officer refusing him would need to have a basis for the rejection. Further, while people say "it terminates your application" in fact it's not an automatic termination - it ties into the requirement that the applicant must be living with the sponsor in Canada. A short separation doesn't qualify as "not living". Further, if he were refused he can challenge the refusal. Given the seriousness of the penalty for that refusal the officer really would need a solid reason.lizardgirl said:
Include with that letter that you received no "barcode" with the letter they sent you. Make a copy for yourself in case they later want to claim that your file was delayed due to no affixed barcode.chelseaviel said:
We were talking about the same thing, we will send our applications in January 2014. I wrote the phrase wrong
i have to send it before the deadline otherwise Im dead:'(
First, I'd caution you not to be too excited about the PPR from NDVO. They like to "request" you send your passport to them (they don't demand it) to "expedite processing" at the beginning of the process. Many people find they hold it for 4+ months.hm82 said:
Usually visa offices take 3-4 months before they review additional document submissions.hameedhr said:HI everyone,
Currently I am residing in UAE and working in a local bank. My wife (PR Holder) has sponsered me last year july/2012 for spouse immigration, UAE embassy asked to provide some additional documents in November, 12, which we provided in December, 12. Since then there is no communication b/w us and embassy. i checked it online where it appears "in process".
Can anyone tell me how much time it will take more as my wife is in canada and i am here we have been apart from each other.. she came to see me in feb, 2013 for onw month visit, now she back to canada.. it is so paining to live without your loving wife ..
Further, i am just curious. will they ask to cancell my UAE visa upon receipt of immigration?
pls response..
Regards,
Hameed Ahmed
Generally, they don't ask for the RPRF unless they expect to finalize the application. But they often will wait 3-4 months after such a mail before they review your application again. This is one reason why we often advise paying the RPRF up front, so that it does not add several months to the process.Shabnamasoud said:Hi everybody:
