They are very slow! They should have informed me of the police certificate. Anyways,i have my pastor in the Gambia. I have already informed him. But another question is,how can I send my finger print to him,is it advisable to scan and send it or I should mail it? And how do I get the finger print form? Thanks.
Gambia should have their specific requirements for a police report. I will suggest you ask your pastor to go to their office directly and inquire What exactly they need from you since you not physically in the country.

You are welcome. Give the address in the link to your pastor to go to the office directly. you could then decide if to go in person depending on their requirements.
Take care and all the best with your application

like l said before you need to tell your pastor in Gambia to go there and make inquiry about what you need to do and if it's possible for you to scan it, send it via email fine and if not you need your pastor to scan the police form to you, print your 10 fingers on the right place in the form and mail it to them, your pastor is the right person to give you much details on what Gambia police need from you and what you need to do.

Hello Crucial. The others are right to advise the MP. But I totally understand where you are coming from if you had an unpleasant encounter with them. They can be like that because they have not walked in these shoes before for most of them, so they may not understand how hard it is to be away from a spouse. Then again all hope is not lost. I know that sometimes if you use a representative, they get more info out of the VO. If you can afford it, go for it. The Contact Centre doesn't usually have information on anything outside the land. Hoping that your application was not stalled by someone, or that it's not an inaccuracy that is causing the delay, start praying. Look at your prayer like a seed and the words you speak about your application like water. When you speak negative words, you are watering your seed with unclean water. When you keep the hope up (as hard as it may be), and speak right, you are watering with clean water. I am sure things will work out. I will also ask around from my friends in the field what can be done for such a situation. And I am sure the other @lamour, @mercyofGod and others, will also keep encouraging and supporting with advise. It's working out for your good. God bless you.

Hi Whitelion,
The member of parliament in my area is of no use at this time because i did write earlier in this thread about my encounter with the MP and the staff to answer your first question. Second question i did call the call center and was referred to contact the VO directly through email which i have been doing with no replies except automated replies. Third question is i am the sponsor.

Thanks so much Benestel,i appreciate every single advice and encouragement i get from this forum. As a matter of fact i have been active and following the forum back in 2014 after my application before i stepped aside. Anyway i have developed a tough skin to their strategy of delay. However that being said,i am a strong believer,i have never spoken or thought anything negative towards the application because i know words are powerful. Just like Job,i know my change is on the way very soon,it won't be long anymore. I get a lot of strength from seeing members on this forum who show up with 6-9 months of processing. I am not deter by their antic. I am strongly holding onto the God i serve that neither sleep nor slumber. His ways are not our ways. Everything humanly possible i have done,i leave the rest to HIM that is exceedingly abundantly able to do ALL THINGS in HIS TIME.

That's the Spirit. Stay focused. We may give you advice but remember that God has the last word. I am convinced it will work out for your good. But also use the same wisdom of God to stay in the game. Listen to the advice others are giving as they have been there for some of us, and before us too. God always brings us new information that we may have the advantage. You will be fine. Stay on top!

Welcome. You'll receive AOR before you know it. Mississauga goes fast unlike Accra.

Hi everyone! It's been really quiet over here and I wonder if Accra VO is working hard enough. The wait is just ridiculous. I wonder which month they may be working on? Hopefully we start to hear some good news in the next few days !

GOD BLESS US ALL!
