Thanks Toronto for fixing the spreadsheet, noticed it last night when I wanted to update because like you, I have good news! My partner received my COPR yesterday! So, NL, here I come -- again. Glad to see our thread (applicants) is moving along in the process! I'll be in NYC for the rest of...

Hi all, does anyone know what happened with the October 2012 spreadsheet? All the information has disappeared, except for those presenting at the Manilla Office?? I went in to update my time line and it's gone...

Good news everyone and many thanks to all! I haven't seen the actual document but I got an excited e-mail from my partner; subject: "It Came!!" LOL. So, I guess that means we got the COPR letter today. My partner says it states I have anytime between now and February 14th, 2014 to arrive in...

Good news everyone and many thanks to all and especially Parker! I haven't seen the actual document but I got an excited e-mail from my partner; subject: "It Came!!" LOL. So, I guess that means we got the COPR letter today. My partner says it states I have anytime between now and February...

Yes, I sent the passport scan via e-mail (as requested). So, OK, good to know it's coming via mail! I don't even know if it's going to my address in Newfoundland or here in NYC (I can't remember which one we wrote on the PR application). So I'll have my partner keep his eye out in NL and I'll do...

hello everyone! So, I decided to just check the ECAS to see what's going on. and lo and behold there's this: We received your application for permanent residence on October 11, 2012. We started processing your application on March 14, 2013. Medical results have been received. A decision has...

well, she'll be in good hands with you!

Thanks. It is confusing. So, I just stay calm and go with the flow, otherwise I'd go crazy. LOL.

Happy Friday everyone. Still waiting on COPR. My partner did call CIC centre this morning and they said I'm all set, they've received everything (last thing they requested [14 march] was a scan of my passport + RPRF payment [sent 16 march]) and I should hear from them "very soon". LOL. "Very...

Hi, Mike Bell is a great immigration lawyer, he's in Ottawa. I don't know specifically if he deals with or has knowledge on medical inadmissibility but he's good in general. here's a link to him speaking with the CBC...

I suggest attaching a letter explaining the situation. I had something similar (sorry I can't remember the exact details) but I had checked single status on something and later changed it to common law. . They are humans, not robots - at least I hope not :o) - and realise people make mistakes...

congrats!! But, I have a question. Why is it that some applicants are required to submit their passports, while others are not? - for instance, all they wanted was for me to e-mail a scanned image of my passport to them.

Thanks Mrs., and I hope it's not too long till he arrives! I sent them the PP over the weekend via e-mail, as requested.

I did my medical on Dec 27 (you can go to our spreadsheet to see the details -I'm "slunikkimc3") and it was sent on and received (I checked via tracking number) Jan 2. I received PP request on march 14, so, a week and 2 months...

Thanks Mrs. I'm tepidly excited, mainly because I've been a bit disconnected from the whole process as a way to keep sane. I guess it won't really "hit" me till I've got the final approval. But, I'm grateful for this web site!

Today, I received the Passport Request from the visa office. Funnily, the request was sent from Ottawa, even though my application was sent to LA - but who's complaining?! Just glad my file is moving along. Parker, could you kindly update my status on the spreadsheet? Thanks!

Good news everyone. Today I received the Passport Request from the visa office in Ottawa (although my app was sent to LA - but who's complaining!). I've now turned a cool shade of green on the spreadsheet.

Thanks! forgive me If I'm getting myself and you confused, you are right it's 10K for the calendar year - which i did not exceed! The term "Calendar year" is key: Who must file an FBAR? Any United States person who has a financial interest in or signature authority, or other authority over any...

what I meant by joint filing is we have to list each others income on our Canadian tax forms. that is a definite. I spoke with someone at the IRS and I did have to wait. If I had filed earlier I would have been assessed - possibly (saying I owed taxes). I think you mentioned you're a tax...
