You are absolutely correct. I've had really bad experiences with Maroof twice. Which is why I was apprehensive knowing this was IOM's chosen panel. When we did our medical in 2015, it was some place in G-6, I think. This is a new designate. So when I found out about Maroof being the designated...

Islamabad. From Maroof Hospital in F10.

Thank you, and ameen, my friend. We didn't have to provide anything. When she went to get her medical done, she took her recent annual medical checkup file with her in case they asked her something. But they didn't refer to her previous file at all. Just checked her BP and got xrays. When it...

My mother has very high blood pressure and an enlarged heart issue. She got supervisa in spite of that.

AoA Fatima, apologies for replying late. I believe getting medical request is a very very positive sign for receiving visa. Unless there are some medical issues, vast majority gets granted a visa after medical. So hopefully your mother should get it soon inshallah. As for my mother's timelines...

My mother got it in 3 weeks. She applied on 7th Nov 2017, and got it on 1st Dec. Applied on paper from Islamabad.

My mother applied for supervisa on 7th Nov. and got it on 1st December! Exactly in 3 weeks, even though the timeline on cic website says 135 days☺ So don't lose hope. The Visa office isn't that slow.

Thank you for your response. Yes, I also did not think there was a treaty between Canada and Pakistan, but the link shared on this thread shows Pakistan in the list of countries with tax treaties with Canada, and gives details in a loooong document. But, as you rightly said, I need a tax lawyer/...

Thank you, BS65 & Keesio. I'm from Pakistan, and it has a tax convention with Canada since, I think, 1976. But the online document detailing the terms of this treaty is very very very long and tedious and full of legal jargon. :-X I was hoping someone might shed a little light and make it...

Hi, I'm a new immigrant. I have a running business in my home country. Income from this business will be our primary source of income for at least a couple of years as both my wife and I plan on pursuing studies in Canada initially. My question is, I am, and will continue to pay taxes on this...

Thanks for your response. My other address with CIC is of my consultant in my home country. So technically they should not send any cards there, outside Canada. Why do they have to send cards in batches?! Why can't they send them all at the same time?!!! Anyhow, I have send the form. Let's see...

Hey all. A little help, please. I had landed in Toronto on 25th July this year. PR cards for two of my sons were received at our address in Mississauga on 15th September, but for the rest of us (myself, spouse and daughter) they have still not been received. I raised a CSE last week, and got a...

Thank you. It's a relief to know :)

Hi. Can anyone tell me how long it takes for the PR cards to be delivered to you? I mean the actual time, not the 41 days as claimed by cic on their website. We landed on 25th July this year, and I received the PR cards for my sons on 15th September (around 50 days). However, we haven't received...

Thank you. Yes, I know, but I guess the cost would be offset in non- monetary terms I.e. good credit history before you land :) Cheers

Lol. Thank you, man! Just thought I'd confirm, as I don't want to do anything the legality of which may rock the PR boat :) It would sure be nice to land permanently with a year of good credit history already under your belt. Cheers.

Hi, I just came back from Canada after my initial landing and completed the relevant paperwork/processes. I opened up a bank account too, even though I will not be using it for another year ( when we go there to settle permanently). The question is, I have a credit card now from a Canadian bank...

Hey everyone. Just an update on my case. We're landing in toronto tomorrow. So, this phase of application & waiting has come to a formal end. For the time being, we'll just complete our landing formalities, and come back after a few weeks. Then wrap up here to move permanently inshallah. Need...

Thank you for you help. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the response. May I ask what difference it makes to the process of applying if I add a co-inviter? As in would I need to fill extra forms, show her tax returns? What additional steps do I need to take to add her as co-inviter?
