I hope someone here had similar experience and can advise on what I can do to re-apply. Background: my niece is 16, she is in high school. We have invited her stating that we'll cover all expenses (provided bank statements, employment letter, etc.) bought her a return ticket, included her...

My parents just found out they had an email from cic with medical/police check requests on Sep 29. I have 2 questions: 1) there seem to be no instructions where to send the additional docs (processing is being done in Warsaw). Should they use the generic embassy address? 2) a police certificate...
