Hi All

This is my timeline:

Application Submitted Jan, 2005 (in Canada)
Started processing Apr, 2005
Transferred to NY Feb, 2006
Interview Mar, 2006
Medicals Started May, 2006
RCMP Report July,2006
Daughter's Last Medical Oct, 2006
FBI Report Nov, 2006 (Due to many errors in the report)
Saudi Report Mar, 2007 (5 months - the longest)
RPRF - Jan, 2007
Submitted ARC Feb, 2007 (will take another 2 months)

ARC = Authorization to Return to Canada application.

This is the last document that the NY Consulate need. Medicals expiration date coincide with expected ARC document date.

Hoping for the best.

Hello there,

After the Medical reports are sent, do we have to mail the Passport or can we take the passport to a local visa office by hand?

Thanks a lot.

From what I know, You cannot go to any local visa office, you have to go to the Visa office where you filed your application, in my case, they have asked me to either send it by mail or go to Buffalo.

Enjoy the happiness with family & friends. I feel delighted to know that people who have been waiting a long time, gets their dream come true.

After the medicals, wait for the Consulate's Request for your passport. They won't accept your passports upfront.

When they DO request your passport. Either mail them or submit them in person.

Hi ,
I am a permanent resident applicant to Canada from Egypt , I have been asked to undergo the medical examination by the Canadian embassy me and my husband and we did so on 15th November 2006 and until now no one has called us in order to proceed , they just informed me that my file is in process and they will contact me when they are in a position to issue the visas and actually I am so worried because it has passed more than 4 months since the medical examination , pls advise if this is normal and when can I expect a call from them to proceed and what are the next steps till passport request

Thanks alot
