Did you send in sponsor's passport/citizenship card as supporting documents in your original pack or did you send them in at a later time?
Maybe they lost them?  We heard some loss of document problems before.  Anyway, I think it'd be better to just send them what they need if it's not too difficult to obtain the documents.


I did send copies of the the sponsor's passport in the original pack. Don't know why they need that again. Will be sending them the documents once i have the fingerprint check(which might be a few weeks). Really stressed about the timeline. I applied for fingerprinting(without channeler) and hoping to get them soon.

It's not "officially" said, but I think they give priority to US citizens, then permanent residents.  As for temporary residents (students/workers/visitors)? I think they get the same priority as wherever they are originally from.. not the same as citizens and PRs.

I agree, seems weird in my opinion but that's how it seems  Undecided

Hi Isometry,

I am wondering if you got your COPR/passport back from SEATTLE yet? Mine was received on 28th March but nothing yet.

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone can help answer this question. What happens if we/my wife doesn't get her PPR before medical expires (03/22/2011)? we filed in April 29th and send the the medical forms with our paperwork. We are coming on one year so any info would be help.

One of two things will happen:

- Medical will be automatically extended (good news is that that seems to happen more often for files in the Buffalo visa office than other VOs)
- They will request she does another medical before issuing the visa

To know if her medical clearance has been extended you'd have to get her CAIPS/GCSM notes or be lucky enough to have someone to tell you from CIC (unlikely).

Sorry to be the bearer of uncertainty Sad   Unfortunately, it's one more test of patience in this process.  Hopefully you'll get good news soon!

These are just some thoughts based on the information available, what I've read, and my experience.  I am not an expert; if you want the facts, cic.gc.ca has a wealth of information.  Good luck with your application!  Hope you have a wonderful day *smile*

If your wife has been In Canada the whole time after she has gotten her medicals done then they will extend them.You have to show proof of it like a visitor visa or your bank statements which I used.If she hasnt been In Canada then there is a chance they could request new medicals.

I really wish that were the case but from the sampling I've taken by asking around, there doesn't seem to be any pattern. Your app in fact looks to be moving as fast if not faster than mine. I'm a US citizen btw
