Hi folks, My apologies if this is in the wrong section of the forums, but since it is post-sponsorship/landing maybe some veteran poster in a similar situation has gone through this... My wife landed nearly couple years ago and we are at a stage where her Indian passport is expiring soon...

It's worth it if you enjoy Freedom of choice to do pretty much anything and everything. Not many countries out there that let you do whatever you want, believe in whatever you want, and live your life however you want. I came around the same age as you, and I can understand what you felt as I...

Landed: Aug 17 ;D Good luck to everyone that is still waiting...hope you guys get united very very soon!

You probably had a good balance of other proof though to convince the VISA officer about your relationship. OP lacks enough evidence imo to satisfy a visa officer. Like a poster above suggested, Maybe get married, live together for a year or so, gather more proof and apply with peace of mind.

Hi BrazilianGirl, when you get a chance, kindly please update my timeline :) Thanks

While waiting for DM, I got sick and tired of people telling me "You should have used a lawyer/consultant to speed up the process."

Hey Oct12, the address change showed up today. Only shows the city, province and Canada though.

I don't know man, it seems that NDVO processes arranged marriage faster (all things being considered equal), and I know three guys who had their visas in about 4 months. Who knows, you may be one of those lucky ones :)

3.5inches or so. I included about 20-25 photos each for relationship (before and after wedding), engagement, wedding, reception. So about 100pics... Did you have a traditional wedding? What I did was include a guest list (close relatives and friends) for both sides and what relationship they...

Yep, just waiting for PP. Actually we didn't even include any on-line chat history. Just need to make sure that the overall proof sent is of top quality.

We sent in a screen shot of our mailbox showing all emails sent (to/from). We then included a sample of about 15 conversations spread over the course of our time together. We barely had any on-line chat logs. Initially I didn't know it would be required (and I'm not a fan of saving chat...

Really good to see everyone's app moving along :) Good luck to the rest!

Will do...so far no change. Holding off on celebrations until 100% sure lol...

Thanks Muksi! Thank you for the updates to spreadsheet as well.

Just checked eCas and it says decision made, but no address change. Should I be worried? ??? Clicking on DM says, "We started processing your application on May 2, 2013"

If you don't mind sharing, did you choose arranged marriage or not in your application? The general definition of arrange marriage is that parents choose and decide. In your case, you guys met first, then had families meet. Presumably getting their "permission" to get married... then went on...

Grats! Did your spouse have any travel history?

@hm82, is your profile info accurate (mainly gender)? The reason I ask is because this is probably another case I have seen where an application from a female sponsor went through much quicker than a male sponsor (provided application is complete). Just asking out of curiosity because there...

They landed a month ago....you expect these young adults to find job and housing in a new country just like that? Wife needs to stop being selfish and at least give the kids a chance to settle down, and then they can move out. Young people need support to, or they usually end up ruining their...
