ALL SPOUSE APPEAL CASES COME HERE AND JOIN US PLZ

[Haider24]

It will take time approximately 18 month. I filed an appeal in 2013 and got a full hearing in 2015. What I suggest you keep calling Canada appeal board for an early date, you might have to send them a letter for an early appeal. And make sure you have a good lawyer for this.


Thx but how do I call Canada appeal board? I have a lawyer and my appeal will be in Toronto

usually lawyer dont a give a damn about your time. its up to you, how soon you want your hearing to be done . if its in Toronto it would be &4 Victoria street office, make sure you provide them as many documents as you can, my package was about 800 pages when i sent there and tell your lawyer to be in contact with the counselor. anyways that's pretty far, first you have to get a full hearing, call them again and again to get an early date. i dont know where is your appeal went but for the Toronto office contact number is listed below

Client2014 - I don't say that it makes a difference whether you have 200 or 800 pages. The important thing is that the evidences you submit show the depth of your relationship. They don't want 800 pages of texts saying "Hey how r u?" but if it shows that you have been in regular, meaningful contact and have spent quality time talking about important things. Sometimes that is hard to show because my husband and I have our important conversations on skype where we can see and hear eachother, but if you can show that you spent 5 hours on skype everyday I think it helps. But I do believe that they want you to submit everything, right from the beginning because it is a de novo hearing, which means they are evaluating your whole relationship from the beginning, as if this was the first time you applied. Which is great because it eliminates the bias of the visa officer who made the refusal decision. If you can go back and print all your communications and photos etc from day 1 I would do it

Hey Haider24 how are you doing today.. It do not take 17 months to process after winning an appeal so the person you talk to gave you the wrong information.. The most is would take is about 5-8 months give or take...I see a person that was on this appeal forum took a yr but most of the ppl get there visa within 5-8 months. Me and you have almost the same timeline. But my visa office is Kingston Jamaica......Did you get the request for new medical and police record as yet.

I agree with Maddants, it doesn't take 17 months. I won my appeal back in October 2015 and I got a request for my husband medical, police clearance, etc last month. Maddants is about a month ahead of me but. Hopefully you will hear back from them soon. Keep fighting.

You should be hearing back anytime now. Hopefully they will request your passport and issue you your visa next.

 

[WaitingSince2012]

Thx Haider! Does it really make a difference if you keep calling them?

I am not sure if it does, but I use to call my case officer once every month to find out the status of my application. I guess its more of knowing where your application is and peace of mind lol.

Hi Maddants
I don't know man. I called CIC call center and they told me it will take approx 17 months. so I asked them why they need to take the 17 months even i won the appeal ( reason for the refusal was that they think i wasn't eligible for sponsor my wife as i was away for 18 moths ) but after i won the appeal they considered me for being a sponsor as I dont have to be in Canada for the full period of time.

any ways long story short they told me to wait 17 months , and then i called CBS and he told me he already forward my file to Ottawa and he said wait until end of Feb you will get something in mail.
in the mean time I have already send some email inquiries to Ottawa and they reply me with this stupid answer
: For all the general inquiries please visit our website or call CIC Call center, so then i called again to the CIC call center" and they told to wait for 17 months again. i got so pissed.

I didn't get any email or mail for updated doc and med. is there any way I can check what information they for me in their system and do you have any idea how to change your email address in their system.

its been 6 years since i applied, you know how frustrating is this,

one more question do you have an online account with CIC or you just go to ONLINE APPLICATION STATUS to check the updates.
if i have to create an account could you please send the link .

thanks for help
GOD bless you

Hey Haider24.... So im just getting back to you.. How are you doing today... First of you dont have to create any account on the cic website to check your application status. You suppose to have a UCI number that they give you. You can check on your decision letter to get your uci number or your spouse... you and your spouse should have different uci number for you to check your application status on the cic website.. If it dont work that mean they have not activate it as yet.....

Did you receive any letter from Ottawa requesting any Documents like medical and police record... If so then your ecas would be activated by cic for you to check your application Status. Trust me on this.. The cic officer told you the wrong thing about the 17 months to get your visa after you win an appeal....To prove it to you go on the appeal forum thread and start from the first page and look at ppl timeline after winning an appeal and i bet you will never find any of them that waited 17 months to get there visa.

Hey Karan how are you doing..... It take about 3-5 months to get ppr after you submitted your documents that they requested... It can be a bit longer than that because i see 1 person that when more than 8 months to get there visa. I would say look to hear from them around end of April going into May....So just be patient my friend you will get your visa very soon... I can be the background check that is holding up everyone right now.

hey maddants

i got my letter confirming that the appeal was consent. i was wondering if our case get forward to Ottawa or back to Singapore??

 

[WaitingSince2012]

Hey Maddants,

Do you know whether they do the background check before or after medical or between medical and passport request?

 

[tuoicao]

Hey Maddants,

Do you know whether they do the background check before or after medical or between medical and passport request?

from what i have read in the form looks like background and medical are first then they request the passport

Oh ok, but do you know if they do it before or after medical?

Congrats on getting your decision letter. What you can do is call your case worker and ask them where your file is and they should be able to tell you. Most of the cases go to Ottawa though but you can check with you case worker or the IAD office.

 

[Maddants]

Hey Maddants,

Do you know whether they do the background check before or after medical or between medical and passport request?

in this case i would sure say it get check after the medical because they ask for police record and medical at the same time with the updated forms.. They have to get your police record so they can contact to country that you got the police record from to make sure that it an legit or original police record because it look like ppl send in fake police record before..lol..............
