    I am not in "38 job list". How come my file is still in process.

    I think I know why....... Because I was legally in Canada for more than 1 year as student & then as temp foreign worker. But still, how will N.Delhi treat my case? I was in Canada on application date (Apr 2008). Will it be helpful if I remain in Canada while N.Delhi processes my file.

    which is safest way to send Passport to the Canadian Consulate in NY from India?

    This may sound like a wild thought...... Can you go to a 3rd country, say like Mexico on tourist visa & then send your passport to NY from there. You'll have to check the details though. This may seem too much work, but when the Canadian PR is at stake.....well.

    I am requesting file transfer from Detroit to India.

    I have been called for an interview at Detroit consulate, but my US visitor visa has been rejected. So I am thinking of asking them to transfer my file to New Delhi CHC (my home country)so that I can attend interview there. My concern is how long will New Delhi take to call me for interview. I...

    Interview at Detroit Office

    Anybody has any experience with interviews. I know people who were handed their medical papers after a successful interview. But in my case medicals have been done.

    which is safest way to send Passport to the Canadian Consulate in NY from India?

    I am not sure if this is a viable option......... 1) Send the PP by Fedex to NY (you said Fedex India said yes to this). 2) Along with the PP draft a letter asking NY consulate to mail the PP after stamping to your friend in Canada. 3) Your friend in Canada then mails the PP to you in India...

    Interview at Detroit Office

    I have been called for an interview at Detroit consulate. I did my medicals & paid the RFPR fee in April. Along with the medical papers, the officer had asked me to submit "further evidence of my work experience" so I submitted a new set of reference letters. This apparently did not satisfy him...

    Entering Canada from US.

    Yes job_seeker, you got it right in your last post. The stamped sticker on passport is long expired but I got a visitor record (paper visa from CIC Vegreville) after my work-permit expired. I did call Immigration call-center & they said I'll be allowed to re-enter from "just" US. I wanted to...

    Entering Canada from US.

    I have a visitor visa valid till the end of this year. My question is "If I were to go to US, will I be able to enter Canada again (before the expiry of course) by showing this visa". My temporary resident visa TRV (that sticker on the passport) expired a long time ago. I entered Canada on a...

    Letter of reference is necessary????

    Just be aware a work experience letter alone is not always sufficient. In my case, I submitted work-exp letter along with payslips & tax details for my current job which was ok with them. But for my old job, I could only submit work-exp letter which was not enough for them.

    Implied status

    I have a related question........ My work permit expired recently. But a month before the expiry, I applied to extend my stay as a visitor. Still waiting for reply. If this visitor visa application is rejected, do I have another 90 days implied status after that or do I have to leave immediately.

    Unique situation

    I don't know abt US postal service, but Canada post has a service where you can redirect the mail received at old address to a new address for 6 months or so. Once you get ur AOR then change the address with them. Check with the local post office.

    Interview at Detroit Consulate

    Hi, I inquired well after the AOR. I had applied in Apr 2008, did medicals & RPRF in Mar/Apr 2009 & then there was some problem. So I started inquiring them sometime in July 2009. Hope that helps. Anyway, back to my original question. Does the Interview date show on the online e-case thing?

    Interview at Detroit Consulate

    I have been called for interview at Detroit but I have not received the letter yet. Came to know thru e-mail inquiry. Will the interview date show online on e-case or do I have to first confirm my attendance after receiving the interview letter. Also, will that letter have a list of documents...

    Called for Interview (Detroit office). But I have other problems

    Has anybody heard of people getting US visitor visa just to attend the interview for PR. I have read PMM saying that the chances are very slim, but I just want to see if people have actually got it. I personally know a guy who got it from India last year. But he also had a canadian work-permit...

    Called for Interview (Detroit office). But I have other problems

    Thanks for the info. My file is in a slightly advanced stage I must say. I have done the medicals & also paid that fee. Normally, one expects the passport request letter after this. But in my case it's a damn interview! BTW, newyorker, I have asked New Delhi abt how they will treat my case...

    Called for Interview (Detroit office). But I have other problems

    Thanks for the replies. vamsi001, ur friend's file was 2.5yrs into the process. Had he done the medicals & paid the "right to permanent residence" fee? Or was he called for an interview? I am just trying to figure out at what stage his file was. I guess the only way around this would be to...
