we are finally moving to Canada in 2 weeks. I have a consulting assignment lined up with a multinational in Canada. I also plan to incorporate soon and start a company in the next couple of weeks.. Although, I had a 6 months validity on my immigration visa, I decided to land yesterday as I...

It means that you will be getting you will be getting the passport request soon. It might be on its way.. In my case, I saw a similar status a couple of days after I had received the passport request. Yours should be on its way. NC

I am pretty sure that you can still afford a nice big house with two cars in Canada too. IT market is pretty hot in Canada especially around the Toronto (GTA). You could easily make around 95k to 105k Canadian Dollars if you are well qualified and get a job as a senior engineer or consultant. I...

ha ha.. the last one was really funny.... I agree..

Congratulations .. About IT jobs scene in canada. I am begining to find that out myself. The market out there is really slow for sure... I am been applying for the last few days. When I am looking for a project in the US, I am flooded with calls all day.. My phone has not run once... It will...

It took me only 1 week to get my police clearance cert from the Indian embassy in Washington DC. I submitted my forms with our passports on Monday and got it back the next Monday. You have to give them the original passport and they will put a small stamp on your passport and give you a letter...

There is another thing you might want to consider. For year 2008, the US Immigration Services received 1,50,000 applications for 65,000 H1B visas within the first few hours of opening petitions. Since the number of applications received was already more than double the limit, the Immigration...

Also, the In Process status does not mean anything. Usually this status is updated much after you hear from them. In my case, I have been asked to send the Passports but my status online still says we have received your medical file and In process. NC

Considering the fact that it takes around 2 to 3 months for the folks satying in the US to hear from the Canadian consulate in Buffalo after their medical test, it does not suprise me at all. I think it might be a norm for them to take 4 months to process applications from Egypt. When you...

Me too.. CanadaVisa.com or the law office of Campbell Cohen is perhaps the most reliable. I am one of their satisfied clients. NC

From what I know, You cannot go to any local visa office, you have to go to the Visa office where you filed your application, in my case, they have asked me to either send it by mail or go to Buffalo.

Please read my thread: Time between Medical and Passport request. (Read 502 times) This will give you a good understanding of how much time it would take from Medical to Passport. NC

I strongly recommend using an attorney if you are serious about the process. Do it yourself sometimes can drag the process. I would strongly recommend Campbell Cohen. I am working with these folks for mine. Thanks, NC

Congratulations on your PR. I am also waiting to hear back from the consulate. Submitted my Medical and FBI Clearance letters on Feb 8th. Hopefully it should be sooner. Thanks for posting your timeline. NC

Godly_1, I think I got your point. Ok. I understand that you are disillusioned with the US and want to settle up north in Canada. I tried to read your post quite carefully, at least thrice, its kind of hard to understand. I think you should use a spell checker before submitting your POST. :-)...

I would also recommend Campbell Cohen, CanadaVisa.com

Noy- What's next for you... When do you do the landing..... NC

Thanks guys for posting your experiences. Please continue to report progress on your cases. However, it would be nice to hear back from people who have already gone through this waiting. How long did they have to wait. I guess everyone is so busy that once they get their Visas, they don't...
