Thank you for responding with some detail and sanity, @dpenabill .

My take on this is it's best to be honest and forthcoming with information like your wife's pregnancy, rather than hide and have them discover this easily-available information in another way. In my experience, the visitor visa category can be very arbitrary, and the reasons why they may accept...

Has everyone here not needed to give their biometric data? I live in Amsterdam, and it seems I have to travel all the way to Germany for what the website says is a "5-minute" process. Taking a day off from work, and having to travel to another country isn't my idea of a 5-minute process! Does...

I'd go with the one that is from the CIC website. That will always be more up-to-date!

If the two passports have the same application ID, the same package makes sense, right? Otherwise maybe the same shipment, but separate packages clearly demarking the separate application IDs. Personally, I'm waiting on the embassy in Vienna to return my passport to me as well. I didn't send...

Usually the server-side validation of the form returns specific feedback as to what exactly is wrong. In this case it seems like all it is saying is that the server failed to do the validation and that you should try again later, maybe their servers are having issues? The CIC online service is...

Well thanks! That's good to know. :-)

Online applications don't need to be signed except for the last bit when you're about to "Transmit and Pay."

This comment seems fair. That being said, I'm just wondering if anyone has actually appealed to them regarding this and seen them actually expedite it. Taking a week to put a sticker in a little book seems excessive. I made my travel arrangements in advance of my application, and I'm cutting...

I'm having the same problem. Actually, on the website it says they accept prepaid credit cards (which is what debit cards basically are). I've been using a MasterCard debit card virtually everywhere that needs a credit card, and it works perfectly fine. But every time I am attempting to pay for...
