I am providing you some Information below. Timelines here are based on my reads on forum and may differ in your case

Your Initial Application will go to Canada and from there it gets transferred to your visa office. If everything goes well you can expect reply in 60-75 days from Canada.

If they approve it goes to Visa office (that you mention in Initial e-mail). You have to apply all docs to that Visa office. Now it takes about 6 months ( In New Delhi and more than 12 months in US) for you to get a Medical request and Interview Request (Interview can be waived off)

After that you need to submit passports. You can not submit passports in India while you are in US. You may have to request change of Visa office at that Time.

I hope above information helps you to make a call to choose your Visa office

Change of visa office is hard nowadays (from what i read on this forum). Moving countries is not a sufficient reason for change of office.
If you apply with Buffalo as your visa office, then move to India, you would have to get your passport to Buffalo for visa stamping. Remember, Indian citizens are not allowed to send passport across borders.

If you apply to New Delhi and don't end up moving to India, it will be the cost of the flight to go get your visa stamped.

You can always send your passport with someone I think. But someone else should answer on that part.

Rupesh,

Isn't it also a challenge that he will not be able to do medicals in the US if he moves to India? If it's only a question of sending across passports with a friend, it might be do-able. But if he needs to physically be present in the US to do his medicals, it is probably doubtful that he will be able to enter the US for that (enter with what visa?).. In my opinion, that would be a deal- breaker and should be a more important consideration than the passport issue..

Pls comment and correct me if I am mistaken...

Cheers,
A

says that we can choose a DMP from the list ..

Authorized Doctors
Your own doctor cannot do the medical examination. You must see a physician on Canada’s list of Designated Medical Practitioners.

I hope we can... as I have given ND as my visa office, while I stay in US for faster processing.

SK is right at least according to my understanding. You can do your medical with any CIC approved doctor from anywhere in the world.

Damn! Why didn't I think of that? :

Is that really popular as a strategy? Are we so certain that Buffalo will take forever?

I have an inteview scheduled at Detroit for 27th July. I am currently in the US but might relocate to India before the interview date. I wanted to know if it is possible to ask the consulate for preponing the interview. What are my other options. I guess asking for transfeering my application to my location of stay would be another option but that might delay things. Can someone provide some guidance in such a situation.

Thanks in Advance

1. You don't attend the interview, they make the decision with the information on file, and that usually means a refusal.
2. They will not transfer the file.

Hey, I was in the same boat. I moved down to India from US after applying for the Canadian PR. The visa was still processed in Buffalo. Nothing changes. I got my medicals done in India. I got my visa. I would reccommend that you keep the consulate updatd on the change of address. Preferably go through an immigration attorney. That way all correspondence will go to your attorney even if you move out of US. You will not miss out.

The only hitch is sending your passport for stamping. You have to fly to Buffalo from India. Currently it takes 6 yrs or so to get your canadian PR from Delhi. If you have 2 plus yrs of work experience working in US then it is not an issue. Hope this helps.

Hi all,

I am looking gurus advice on one confusion:

Only one entry on the shipping label has "NOC entry-applied for":


Citizenship & Immigration Canada
Federal Skilled Worker
Centralized Intake Office
Attn.: SW1 - NOC # _ _ _ _ PO BOX 7500 Sydney, NS
B1P 0A9

2) imm0008_3e: Prior work experience - NOC #


Please guide me if I am missing something?



Thanks a lot
