I beg to differ Tozo! The officer MAY ask for additional proof but its not a must. I am talking from experience. We waited for them to ask for documents but they didnt. The officer just opened the file and based on the documents that we had submitted with the application, refused our case. In...

Once transferred Vegreville has got nothing to do with your case. Its one of the officers in Edmonton office who will decide your case. So yes mail it the edmonton office.

That's correct. They will only ask things like if you have any dependents to declare etc. Then you pay the landing fee, sign the document and off you go!

Charmine, Dont wait for them to ask for updates or more info. Send any thing and every thing that shows that you are in a genuine and continued relationship. If they transferred application without AIP, its serious stuff! Dont want to scare you, but we went through the same thing, gathered...

Oh ok so you applied under the Alberta Nominee program. Yeah thats close now. I am wondering about the SK family stream program timeline. Anyway thanks,

On the website it doesnt say you have to show a specific amount of funds when entering Canada. BTW how long did it take to get the Provincial Nominee Certificate and then for PR?

Mimina82 and Ddobro2, thank you so much!!! Being in a long and rocky relationship with CIC, I know you have to learn to live with WAITING for the next step/ letter ;D

My sister applied in 2005. File was transferred to Islamabad in 2008. We started getting letters from CIC this year. First it was the info update forms and police certs and then another one for medical. The police certs took some time so everything was submitted in July and I just got an email...

Oh I am sorry about the confusion. The Vegreville one was for inland spouse sponsorship. Its just that CIC and I are in a looooong-term relationship ;)

Yes my sister is in Canada. My mom is in Pakistan. So the application was processed first in Mississauga for two years and then transfered to Pakistan three years ago.

Hi, My sister sponsored my mother in Pakistan and we are expecting to hear from the embassy after the medical, info update foprms and police certs are submitted couple of months ago. So, say, if the application is approved, do you get a letter informing you of that or you just get a letter...

Hi, I am just trying to understand the procedure. My sister sponsored my mother and we are expecting to hear from the embassey in Islamabad. So, say, if the application is approved, do you get a letter informing you of that or you just get a letter asking you to send your passport. Do you pay...

I second that!

Alberta has discontinued its provincial Nominee Program for sponsoring family members. Here is what it says: "The AINP is currently not accepting applications under the... AINP Family Stream. " Here is the ink: http://www.albertacanada.com/immigration/immigrating/ainp.aspx

Hi, I am trying to invite my parents from Pakistan for a visit to Canada. Can someone share their experience espacially about which supporting documents they and I should submit? What is the average processing time for visit visas in Islamabad?

Congrats L_Y!!! Hi Khan, may be the lawyer was talking about the Provincial Nominee Program which is quicker and you dont have to have a Canadian Spouse to apply for it.

I guess they just didnt like us the first time round :P We applied, the application got transferred to the local office, two weeks later we got the rejection letter. No interview, no request for information, nothing. The reason given: They dont believe we are in a genuine relationship. My foot...

We got denied without an interview but it was an inland application.

Hi Solidrock, Getting transferred without AIP is very serious stuff. Dont take it lightly. They arr most probably thinking that its a marriage of convenience. Which is your local office? Dont wait for them to ask for more information or documents or the call for interview. Collect as much...

First the refugee case was rejected then the appeal was refused then applied on the H&C application which was pending for 5 years. We got married and applied for inland sponsorship which got transferred to local office three months later and rejected by the local office without interview a week...
