Thanks for the TRV info silenthill and BP. I think I will go ahead and apply for one for my wife. Sounds like it might be worth a shot after all.

i wanted to know the approximate time from any of the applicant who recently received the result.
After receiving file, Singapore first open the file, note down all the information, check all the forms. If everything is ready than it goes for review by a visa officer. Visa offier will take the decission whether your relationship is genuine or not. If he is satisfied that the sponsored person is a member of Familly class, then it will be written as "Eligibility: Passed". So you don't need any interview at this stage. But they have right for interview any time during the whole processing time. At this stage Singapore updates the ECAS status as "In Process". The date they say started the processing is actually is the date VO takes the decission Eligibilty Passed. I found this in my GCMS notes. I think that's why all people who see In Process do not require to attend interview. I am not sure exactly when they start security and criminality check. But I am sure Singapore asks for passport after getting these clearence. It varies from person to person. I heard normal check takes avg 3 months. Singapore asks for passport at the end of processing where as some other visa office like New dellhi asks at the beginning. Whatever I am saying here is completely based on the cases I have read here and my experience with Singapore. So May be I am not 100% right. |

electronics means they will e-mail you the notes...paper means they will use postal service to send you paper copy. It is good to ask for electronic its faster.If they file is small they do like to use electronic. Your sister can buy money order from any bank and attach that with the request form. |

Thank you for the info Shaheenaz. I'll let her know today inshAllah. I can see in your timeline & signature you applied same time as mine, October 2011 but your medical was done March 2012??? I didn't get it. I had to do the medical and attach it with my application. Also, in February 2012 you got to know a decision had been made (even before medical)? How come? Please explain. |

Do you know how to pay online? Online payment would be great for her as she hasn't got enough time. |

I think I can help you. I paid online through the credit card. There is a option for online payment. In fact I sent the request by email and asked them to send it by email. There was no problem. I got the GCMS notes within one month. One more thing be careful about the electronic file and physical file. You should check the electronic file as it will not delay your case. and check the box "Application status". If you have any other question let me know. |

Thanks a looooot Amy!  So, just to clarify, she'll have to e-mail them to send her the link where she can pay for the Caips/GCMS notes online,right? She couldn't find the link where she could pay online. This link : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/form-imm5563.asp eventually leads to this link : http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/singapore-singapour/visas/fees-frais.aspx?view=d where she can't find any payment link for Caips/GCMS notes. Please confirm. Thanks again.  |

Folks, you don't have to do tit-for-tat for every debate. We can't win everything. Many people here will eventually be Canadians. You may stand next to that same person you despise at the Citizenship oath ceremony and sing Oh Canada. When you're a Canadian citizen there is no second, third for fourth class citizen. What is the point of picking on others? People come here to seek help, offer help and share information that may be helpful.
Fraud is everywhere, it has no border. No particular country is immune from it. You can use Google and search "[country name] visa fraud", you will find millions of results.
Taking criticism is not easy, and accepting it is more difficult but it'll help you grow and learn lessons of life.
