    That is wonderful Beeo08 ! I am glad you are reunited now ! and about tickets for Lamontana, yes. it actually seems to be more expensive one way sometimes.

    Hi Jorlando and Outro. it seems that everyone experiences are different. in our case all people we dealt with were very nice, and everything went smooth.

    Sponsorship through Bogota 2015-2016

    Hi lamontana. welcome. I see you applied one month after I did. I applied Sep 8th, 2016. You are applying via Quebec, so they have maybe an extra step or so. Our process took just over 4 months, but We were not asked for interview or any other supporting papers. In your case that may delay...

    Hi Jorlando. We sent it on the 20th, and according to Servientrega was received on the 21st. there was no acknowledgement from the embassy, We just trusted that Servientrega notice was correct. after that nothing. As they asked for an address to deliver the passport my wife waited everyday...

    Hi ccalrod, I am sorry to hear about the complications of the situation for you and your wife. To be honest and thinking of the future, I think that the best and only real option is for her to move back to Colombia and be together for at least one year, then apply by common law status. Even if...

    I have a question. the email we got requesting PPR did not say anything about prepaid envelopes. Just asked Us for an up to date mailing address and phone number in Bogota, and they specified that should be where we wish the passport to be mailed to. Why do I hear about prepaid envelopes in...
