Hi guys,

I'm also requested to submit an ARC application for my husband. The situation is I am applying for PR under CEC within Canada. My husband had a deportation order. So PR case office asked me to upload his ARC Application to MyCIC using the link the opened. We gathered all the documents but having trouble of how to pay the ARC application fee!! Since this is a application normally send to visa office outside of Canada, there is no way we can pay it online, nor pay it at the bank to obtain a receipt. I called CIC call centre, they have no clue either, one even suggest maybe the case office don't ask the payment.... I consulted with a lawyer, her unofficial suggestion is to pay $400 using other categories for online payment (for example: 4 times of $100 Visitor Record Fee), should I do that? I mean it seems like the only option. Or should I only upload the application package but ask for CIC's further instruction of how to pay for it in the Letter of Explanation? I have 30 days until July 21 to deal with it.

Thanks for any suggestion

The VO may just extend the medicals, they are able to do a one year extension, that's what they did in our case and we didn't know, we only found out later when my MP inquire about it.
After reading your case in more detail now im feeling like there is no hope. You been waiting so long and im only at 7 months arc..to think it could be even another year i might have a breakdown i dont have money to go see my husband soon..i owe so much for my student loans i have to work and keep paying and all my cards are maxed out. Meanwhile my husband calls me and tells me hes on edge and just feels like hes going crazy waiting.

ARC then can take 10 years..theres no real timeline so our lives are up in the air for whenever they feel like dealing with it..i cant even give up and move to europe becauase i have 40k + debt here.

Hey ,
ARC never take 10 years , I believe it take 1 month to 1 Year depends on your VO , ( Mexico 1Month or so , Vienna 1 year or so ) .

be patient and good things will come , your husband you can ask him to suggest or find a solution if he try to push you again .

Good luck

So i got an interview appointment for mid September regarding my ARC application yesterday.
I have an accepted H&C grounds application.

Is 3 months considered fast or a long period for an interview?
Anyone knows what questions to expect at the interview?
I had an interview scheduled to mig August. Were you able to find out about the questions they may ask at the interview?

My husband and I have been waiting for over a year (14 months to be exact ) and at the beginning of this process I started checking the processing times for other countries , I'm sure you can find the post in this thread but i dont recall finding informatiom about Colombia. I know Mexico VO process it very fast , within a month or two max, Brazil is also fast, other VO like Romania , London within 6 month and I believe Ottawa is within 3 months, I don't know about Colombia but it would be helpful to post the Arc processing times to have as reference for future applicants.
As you can see Vienna is over a year. I was told that our application would be reviewed within a month but who knows really, once it happens for sure I will post it here . I know there are many people waiting for Vienna to review their Arc applications and all I can say is stay strong and don't give up, I know is difficult and extremely depressing
Good luck
