Does anyone know what the letter would look like if you get a refusal on DM? Would it be the same letter as a positive DM and you just get refused when you go for landing? I am very worried because they still didn’t ask for my husband’s Costa Rica record check, and we have a few red flag type...

So we got our DM (still in shock), and we will be contacted for landing in Etobicoke. Can anyone share lately how long it has taken more or less to get a landing interview? How long until they contact you, and how long until the date they set? I believe I heard that people have been contacted...

Hello, I have a request. Has anyone who has received a communication from the Mississauga Office had their file processed by "Officer CP"? If so, and you were requested to send in further information, would you be so kind as to provide me the email address for this Officer CP? Please do so...

Hello, I know they are buried throughout various threads, but just to help out, I was wondering if anyone would like to share the letters they have sent to their MPs to inquire regarding the extreme delays in processing time. Remove personal info of course. It might help others to use it as...

Notes in Physical File or Electronic File when ordering GCMS notes Inland?? Can anyone tell me what is the difference? Last time I asked for Electronic File?? Is it not the same?? Help ASAP…I don’t want to time out, this thing is such a pain in the behind.lol Thanks!!

I called awhile ago and asked a rep, but I wanted to check with anyone who has done this, as we all know how (not!) reliable CIC reps can be. My husband (the applicant) had his passport about to expire. We went to the Costa Rican embassy in Ottawa and he got a new one. I know I need to send...

Background to our situation: My husband arrived on a Visitor Visa in 2010. We applied for an extension of the Visitor Visa before the original expired, therefore he is on Implied Status. We applied for PR Inland in August 2013, along with an Open Work Permit. As the processing is so slow for...

Can anyone who has ordered GCMS notes online recently tell me how long it took to receive your GCMS notes via email? Our App is Inland if that makes any difference.... Thanks everyone! Best wishes to all for speedy approvals!! :)

Hello, I am the Sponsor for my husband, and I am trying to request the GCMS notes. I am following the video recommended http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_E_dq_uLVo&feature=youtu.be It is really helpful but I am stuck on one part, since it has been updated since the video was made. As the...

Can anyone suggest who would be the appropriate contact to determine if a Work Permit is actually required for a Self-Employed Photographer? I cannot find the link right now, but there are exceptions for self-employed people who are not directly competing with the Canadian Labor Market. From...

I’m just wondering if it’s possible for my husband and I to travel within Canada via Air. He is NOT from a Visa Exempt Country. He arrived here on a Visitor Visa in 2010. We applied for Visitor Visa Extension 1 day before it would have expired, so technically would be on Implied Status at that...

Saw it in the Toronto Star this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Didn't find the Toronto Star link (at work can't check too much) But here is another.... http://www.ottawacitizen.com/business/Foreign+service+workers+reach+tentative+agreement+with/8964047/story.html

So now that I called CIC and got my Application # (even though no AOR or UCI # yet) I'm curious... I read that Family Class Applications all start with F for Family.... Mine starts XF000...... Does anyone else have that? Or know if it means anything of any significance?

I think ALL of us on here waiting should send our complaints about the wait into the various media outlets. If enough of us do so, the more places who pick up the story, the bigger the outcry, the more attention that comes to this issue, the better chance of things getting moving quicker! As...

Unless we get some sort of miraculously quick approval, my husband’s passport will expire during our PR processing. It expires Nov 2014. We have a lot of little issues that I believe will most likely delay our processing at least to some extent (I was previously married and sponsored my...

My husband has applied for PR, but he is here on an expired Visitor Visa. (We applied for a Visitor’s extension BEFORE it expired, have proof they rec’d it, but didn’t get a reply. So technically he is on Implied Status). His Driver’s License from Costa Rica would be expired, but he doesn’t...

I just saw a post from another member that included an email from CIC telling them for the OWP to fill out IMM5553?? I was told (and did) fill out IMM5710.... Did I send the wrong one with my PR app?????

My husband came to Canada on a Visitor Visa. We had intended to stay only for summer holidays, but our families convinced us to stay here for the birth of our son. On the Visitor Visa (for which he was approved and came here) on the question about criminal record we put no, since my husband...

I was just wondering.... There is that list of about 12 countries or so for which you are not require to provide a Security Check ahead of time. Off the top of my head I know there is Costa Rica, Fiji, Honduras, Hong Kong, UK, Poland, Ukuraine.... Does anyone know the reason they don't...
