Congratulations, is your VO Vienna?

Another strategy is to contact Jenny Kwan Member of Parliament for Vancouver East, NDP Critic for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Telephone: 613-992-6030 Fax: 613-995-7412 E-Mail: Jenny.Kwan@parl.gc.ca

I agree with you, like I said we waited for so long and they gave us a negative answer. Nicholas Keug is an Immigration reporter for the Toronto Star. I know in the past when the media gets involve they start addressing the issue, check this link...

I would suggest you contact your MP. Vienna took 15 months to respond to our Arc, just the Arc, that's not including the time we sent our application. Ours was denied and we had to appeal the decision. But be careful because Vienna doesn't like the pressure from the MP offices and can't just...

Thank you for your response, I will try and follow the suggestions from that link quote author=wait_so_long link=topic=87619.msg5820045#msg5820045 date=1488514309] The following thread might be of assistance to you...

Hi everyone As I mentioned in a previous post my husband's application was denied, we submitted an appeal at the IAD and Federal Court. The Federal Court was approved and sent the file for re-determination by another officer. We are now waiting to be contacted by CIC. I wanted to see if I can...

Hi guys Our application was denied last year in July, we submitted the appeal to the IAD and also an appeal to the Federal Court. We still don't have a date for the IAD appeal but in the meantime we had the Federal Court hearing and we won. The judge determined that the application needs to be...

Patricia Wells is a good lawyer , you can search her on Google

My husband and I have been waiting for over a year (14 months to be exact ) and at the beginning of this process I started checking the processing times for other countries , I'm sure you can find the post in this thread but i dont recall finding informatiom about Colombia. I know Mexico VO...

I have asked and met with my MP because we have been waiting for 20 months now and we still don't have an answer. All they can do is make an inquiry with the VO. I asked my MP to make a Ministerial inquiry as to why there are so many differences on how VO are dealing with Arcs, in terms of...

I believe your Arc is not related to a sponsorship application so I really don't know what they are checking but you should review the operations manual that deals with Arc, I posted the link in this forum. My understanding is that they review the reasons you require the arc, that whatever led...

That's great Jimmy, I do hope that out appl is dealt with soon.

I think we should all quote the Minister when speaking with our MP. Here is a link to an article from the Toronto Star where the thought of an immigration Ombudsman was discussed. https://www.thestar.com/news/immigration/2016/05/08/creation-of-ombuds-office-urged-to-tackle-immigration-snafus.html

I completely agree, this process is extremely frustrating. IRCC have deployed several senior officers from several visa offices and sent them to process refugees in Jordan Lebanon and Turkey, and in the meantime we have to keep on waiting. I can't even begin to explain how frustrated I am, my...

Congratulations
