Hi All,

I am new to this thread.
My file received in new delhi on June 8, 2011
PPR on July 15, 2011
Interview on Aug 31, 2011 (they approved my file)
I received letter from CHC on Oct. 2, 2011 requiring to send some document. And I sent it on 4th OCT.
I contacted to CHC and thy send me email on Jan 24,2011 as mentioned below:-

"This Family Class application is currently in the queue for final review. It will be reviewed in accordance with its place in the queue for applicants in this category, based on the application received date."

Do any one of you have submitted information required by visa officer after interview?
If yes, can you share how long it will be taking in deciding the application.?

thanks to everyone in advance.

Hi jai1980,
So it seems like you applied in April/May?
that is a long time, things seemed to have moved quickly initially and came to a standstill after the interview.
Do you mind telling us what were the additional docs they asked for?

Also they say "It will be reviewed in accordance with its place in the queue for applicants in this category, based on the application received date.".
Your application was received in ND on June 8, 2011, So i think it should have priority.
Maybe someone here can shed some light.
 
hey guys, my spouse's e-cas changed to 'in process' last evening, after being 'application received' for sometime now (see below my user name for the timeline). details are as follows:

we started working on your application on 10-feb. medical results have been received

Question. is this any indication of where my process is? they have the passport already, and it changed after they received it. should I expect a DM soon, or is it pretty normal for it to stay on 'in process' (along with the rest of the status) for a long time.

thanks
 
Hello Everyone,

I have submitted request for legal name change in BC from Vital Statistics agency.

Q1. Once name is changed, is it valid in BC only or in complete Canada?

Q2. I need to get name on the PR card changed once my legal name gets changed. Do I have to send my still valid PR card back to CIC or I can keep it and give them back once they ask me to get the new PR card with my name changed?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.
 
@ thecoolguysam

Q1. Once name is changed, is it valid in BC only or in complete Canada?
- you should confirm that with the Vital Statistics Agency. My guess is that it is Canada wide, if not worldwide

Q2. I need to get name on the PR card changed once my legal name gets changed. Do I have to send my still valid PR card back to CIC or I can keep it and give them back once they ask me to get the new PR card with my name changed?
- as per form IM5444E, "if your card is still valid, you may hold on to it and return it to CIC officer when you pick up your new card at a local CIC office"
 
ps3playa,

congratulations. It seems like your case is moving pretty smoth compared to other cases at ND.
We should expect Sep/oct cases to go to in process soon.

Anybody else got update?
 
I called CIC and they told me that keep the card and send application and once new card is issued with new legal name, collect it from near cic office and hand over the old card.
I am in big relief now because in case during pr card replacement, if I need to go outside canada, I can still go with my existing pr card.
