Thread for applicants of NEW DELHI 2010!

congrats
$10000 limit is cash
you can take your jewelry and other personal stuff custom free, just let the officer know. you have one year to bring your personal items custom free but you have to tell customs of what they are when you arrive the first time.

When you'll say $10,000 in cash, does that include travellers cheques etc?

Congrats!
How is your pox now?

My opinion, "Cash and Such" = also includes travellers cheque. It is just as good as cash.
What about bankers draft made in "self"?

i think the principle is to classify money into "traceable" (through accounts) and "non traceable" (cash and such)

@Singhson / Cival / Rozine

The CBSA says that there is no limit to bring in cash (please read further)
however,

Is there a limit on the amount of money I can bring in or take out of Canada?

No. The requirements simply state that you must file a report if the amount meets or exceeds the value of CAN$10,000.

Ultimately "traceability" matters

@ manpap
did u email your MP or went to the office in person? did you sign the consent form?
By law VO has to respond to MP inquiries within 48 hours. so i suggest you call your MP office again if you have signed the consent form already.

also sounds like you got a computer generated letter. these letter's are auto generated based on what officer checks off. eg when you move from stage 1 to 2, if in the document checklist officer forgets to check off all the documents received, the system will generate a letter for missing document and it will be printed at the mail services to be mailed out. this is what happened to you.
does ur letter look something like this?

Thank you very much SinghSon. The letter i received was similar to the one you have posted and as you said i hope it is an auto generated letter printed out at Mailing services. Regarding MP inquiry, I personally spoke with the MP assistant and signed the "Form of Consent". I was told usually CIC take upto a week to respond and MP office would communicate the message to me as soon as they hear from CIC New Delhi.

I spoke with the MP's assistant this morning and she told me "At this point of time, she knows as much as i know and I have to be patient until further communication from the CIC/MP's office".

After reading your post, I can relax a little bit and hope everything is fine.

Thankyou once again for your prompt reply and have a great day.

Best Wishes

hey siva thanks for catching my error for not being clear, i didn;t mean to imply there is a limit, meant to say $10000 is a limit before it needs to be declared...its part of the anti-money laundering legislation that every country around the world has.

From what I see so far, all ppl who got DM in Feb, got the visa directly without any updates in E-CAS.

So ND stopped updating E-CAS anymore ?!

Hi every one......good news...



okay so...does this sound like a bollywood event to you guys? so i was on the way to mumbai from canada to see my wife who is from delhi. we had decided to meet in mumbai. so after i got out of the airport, i kept looking for her all around but couldn't find her. then getting mad and impatient, i called her and asked her where at the airport she is. she replied she is in delhi. i was like what the hell. why? then she said she got the visa!!!! these all happened only in between 11 hrs or so when i wasnt in touch with her while i was litrally on my flight. so yeah my wife finally got the visa. i am a june applicant and yes, no interview. the status remains unchanged, still in process. anyways, so for those who are still waiting, hang in there. it will come right to you. all you need is patience that i failed to convince even my wife to have.

Good luck..

Congrats!! Two visa's in one


Guys, do they transfer your file to a visa office right when they approve the step 1???

There are different theories on that too.
As per one theory, they transfer impotent documents/forms electronically and send package later to VO.
Another theory as per MD, they wait till they have few files for the same VO and they send an officer to that VO.

In any cases, once your stage 1 is complected, you should expect PPR within 30-60 days.
