Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

[nazam80]

hi shykitten,

                      congrats, this really is a good news means london office is pretty much alive hoping a speedy process for others too!

normally PR visa expiry dats is the expiry date of medicals or Passport ( whichever is expiring first) as i can see from your timeline it definitely is the date when his medical is expiring, (i assume its september the 7th if you have used UK format to put in the dates)
and yes this is the date before or on your husband has to land in Canada!

hope this helps

My husband will be landing in Toronto, Ontario within he next 4 weeks and was curious to know how is Immigration going to know where to send my husbands Permanent Resident Card? Is that based on my mailing address?

When you land you sign papers and they will ask for the address to send the PR card too.
Don't worry! The hard part is definately over

Thank you pinklady and nazam80 ...can my husband give them a mailing address instead of the physical address to send he PR card? ...my mailbox is shared and i don't trust the PR card to be sent there and would rather it be sent to my dads house..

Hi

I think you can give that adress too.

Yep, you can give them any address. Its nothing formal, they just ask you where you want the PR card to be sent. There shouldnt be a problem.

After nearly 2 weeks from despatch, I have finally managed to sort out my delivery issues and it's finally been delivered to CPC-M today!

I'm so happy it's finally arrived there safely! Don't think I could of handled starting again. I'm finally in the queue 

Hi there. I may have a similar issue as you had. I sent my application from the UK via royal mail, signature required. I posted it on 28apr and on 01may the website said it arrived at customs and on morning of 02may was at missigua postal facility for processing. No update since. The website says not to bother calling as the agents only have access to the same info. How did you go about finding what went wrong and how to fix it? Or am I just being incredibly inpatient and nothing's wrong with it sitting at the same location for 5 days?

Although not the same documents ive had many documents sent with signature required(both ways) but most have been caught up with customs for up to two weeks, tracked status never changed until delivery. It's impossible to follow and can get frustrating, hang on in there :-)

I am a Canadian/Irish Citizen sponsoring my common law partner who is irish.  I sent the application to the London High Commission Immigration Centre and have now realized it should have been sent to Mississauga!  I sent it by tracked mail and was delivered to London on May 4th.  Does anyone know whether they will send it back to me or will they forward it to Mississauga.  The immigration centre in London do not accept phone calls or email so I am getting stressed out that it will sit there and nothing be done with it.

IF anyone has any experience of this your thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi

Email them and request them to send u back or forward it to Canada. Common sense says they should forward to Canada but u never know.

I tried to email them but they will not respond unless your application has been logged and you have a file number. Perhaps I am being impatient as they only received it 3 days ago. I'm just afraid that if they don't send it back or to Mississauga that it will sit there for weeks and time is wasted. We had hoped to move to Canada in January.

One thing a friend of mine did on a similar situation ( after passport being mistakenly sent to Canada's London High commission) was to inquire in person. She got into a Ryanair flight from Sweden to London and followed the case herself. She could prove that she needed her passport to travel and some friendly lady helped her out.

I am not %100 sure if this works for every case but I thought I'd share.

in most cases they will send application back to sender, wait for atleast one week, i m sure you will get it back in that time.

 @ matti: how was she able to travel from sweden to london while her Passport was in CHC-L? , not being sarcastic but amused
