Hi All,

My spouse finally received medical request today with additional documentation request from the Pretoria VO.

The email says "We do not confirm receipt of correspondence and we do not respond to requests to do so. You must ensure that your response to this letter is sent by reliable means".

Does anyone have any idea what the reliable means (mail, email, webform) would be?

Thank you.
with all the issues I have witnessed people go through I'd say try all. Upload on MyCIC, send via Webform and mail it in. All the best :)

Yeah indeed, unfortunately there has never been any upload options on MyCIC. I think webform and mail would be the best resorts. Thank you.

Hello everyone,
I was approved as my spouse's sponsor on July 10, 2017. But the file has not been sent to VISA office yet. Is the timeline normal? How long it will usually take to be sent to VISA office?
Thank you.

Thank you Marriane. They request for conversation since we got married since January and and the last time we saw each other. I'm unsure how many pages that will be trying to capture the entire conversation from February to September. That's why I'm thinking probably by mail. What are your thoughts?

I will mail it for sure and it will not take too long for them to receive it. At least they will get it in hard copy form.

Hey guys, a question about work permits.

We’ve applied outland since the process was supposed to be faster but it’s been 4 months and our file isn’t even in process yet. We’ve already made up moving plans for November and my husband intends to follow through and move here in November regardless of the state of the application.

We got 2 options at this point: he stays here as a visitor and finds a remote job in US that he can do while we are waiting for PR or – and this is where the question is coming from – his current employer in the States offers him a transfer to a Toronto Office.

The question is – can we apply for a work permit (not OWP that comes with an inland application but a NAFTA work visa with an existing Canadian job offer) while we have a PR application in process?
