    Same thing happened to my wife visitor visa application; was refused and we used the exact same UCI # when we did her PR application. No issues.

    Refugee program for Ukraine

    @mehdikiev - Not sure if your post didn't quote properly, but did you get any word yet on your CUETA application? We sent in my wife's cousin's application to the Warsaw office a month ago. Scrambled to do the biometrics and finally got it done April 6. Now we wait and haven't heard anything...

    Canada prepared to welcome an 'unlimited number' of Ukrainians fleeing war, minister says

    Just came back from Warsaw and it was exactly what I expected; a big massive clusterf*ck of a mess. First went to the VFS global center, which is at a completely different address that what is posted on Google maps. Not sure if that's a Google issue or what, but something to keep in mind for...

    Canada prepared to welcome an 'unlimited number' of Ukrainians fleeing war, minister says

    Yeah I'm reading that FB page, and it looks like chaos. Last Friday I was going to book an appointment for my cousin and there were plenty of slots available, but I held off until the next evening because she wanted to confirm her work schedule. I wish I just booked it then , because now the...

    Canada prepared to welcome an 'unlimited number' of Ukrainians fleeing war, minister says

    Anybody else having issues making an appointment with the VFS Global center in various countries in Europe? Seems that every time I am able to log onto the VFS site to book an appointment, the booking system does not appear to have anything available (even 8 months down the road). I saw many...

    Canada prepared to welcome an 'unlimited number' of Ukrainians fleeing war, minister says

    Any word on how/if/when this new program (Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel ) is starting up? IRCC has been completely silent on the issue since their press release 2 weeks ago and no new information anywhere other than mid-March. Is it supposed to be a new online portal where...

    Certified Translator Definition

    I translated our documents from Polish -> English from a Polish certified translation company. They knew to put that affidavit on the translation. I believe all certified translators around the world have a universal agreement in place to make sure their is some kind of affidavit that is...

    JUNE 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    If they are asking you for documents, it means your file is moving. I am also a June application and we already got our COPR last month. When they asked us for another police certificate in November, we submitted it and a week later got our pre arrival letter. The week after our PPR, then a week...

    Spousal application

    When my wife got a request for an additional PCC, she got her PPR about 3 weeks later. Have your ordered your GCMS notes? Maybe it has some information as to the delay. According to our GCMS notes, her application was basically approved, pending on the PCC clearing.

    Is a seperate letter regarding plans for a Canadian Life okay?

    I wrote our plans to return to Canada as a separate letter. We recently got approved for PR. In our case, it certainly didn't hurt to have those details in a separate letter. Obviously as mentioned, you don't need to write a novel. But if you want to include additional details that you think...

    Describe the circumstances of your first meeting?

    Answer as best you can on the line. Then write a letter explaining the circumstances in more detail. I wrote a long letter that summarized our application and relationship. That is where I included most details of our initial meeting.

    HOW TO ORDER GCMS NOTES: STEP BY STEP PROCESS!

    I am on around day 80 of waiting. Made my request back in September. Got an email exactly 30 days later saying I forgot to send an authorization form since I made the request on my wife's behalf. Sent that off, thinking it would be a quick turnaround. Didn't hear anything by day 67 so I wrote...

    Last Name incorrect in PPR

    We had the same issue except they wrote the street name wrong on our letter. I made a webform and also wrote an email to our VAC office, but never heard a response. So I wrote a letter which summarized our PPR package (including height, eye color, etc) and also wrote a paragraph about the error...

    Spousal sponsorship

    Gotcha, thanks for the link. I'll read up on it. I'm certain it's a type too, because all the other letters we have received have the correct address. I figured whomever data-entered it just made a quick mistake, since it's a weird word to spell. I plan on including a letter in our PPR package...
