I have another question... They requested his passport, and asked for it to be sent in ASAP as his medicals expire soon. He sent in his passport a few days ago, as we are figuring he will get it back (hopefully with the visa) in a couple of weeks. My question is, on the CIC website under...

Thanks for the info Allison. My husband is coming from Jakarta, Indonesia. He won't be bringing a car, or a lot of stuff (he's 22 and a light packer.. well for the most part ;) ). Should he print out that form in advance and fill it in? Or will he just get one when he gets there? Hmmm, I am...

Hello! So, my husband has finally been requested his passport for Visa issue! Yippeeee ;D We should be getting his Visa soon as they want to issue it so he can land before his medical expires in early October. What kind of documents should my husband have at hand upon landing (other than...

Just to let you know! My husband got a request for his passport - to issue the Visa! So, although they did ask for his fingerprints to be sent to the RCMP in May (we sent at the end of the month), they either decided they didn't need the results, or the RCMP was fast - not sure. But either...

Thank you so much for your responses. I think you have helped solidify the decision that he lands before October 14th, so he doesn't create anymore issues with trying to extend the medical with a new one. I expected that trying to extend the medical may have its complications, however to be...

No, they never did. But we were wondering if it would be possible to send in a new medical with his passport (so his leave could be extended). Obviously we have been waiting ages to get back to Canada, but my parents had planned to meet us in Bali in October.. on the 15th (just so happens to be...

Just out of curiousity, how do they know (on landing) that his medical has expired? Thanks for the info! Very direct and to the point :)

Hello all! So, today my husband got a letter in the mail from CIC requesting his passport. It stated " We are now ready to issue your immigration visa. In order to complete the process, we need your passport". Additionally, the officer crossed out "You must submit your passport within 60...

Hello missmyhoney, my husband never sent in a RCMP criminal record check to CIC with the original application (Dec 2009), as it said on the website that CIC conducts their own checks for Canada (and we thought that included the RCMP check). However, in May 2010 he received a package of our...

What stage of the process does it "look" like my husbands application is in? His application was sent to Singapore late Jan 2010. Our photos were sent back to him in May 2010, as was a request letter for his fingerprints to be sent to the RCMP for a crim record check We have sent all that in to...

Woah, locolynn, that is so long! Where is your husband from? How many other countries has he lived in? And has he had to service in the military?

Ugh, even the waiting together is difficult, we feel as if we are in Limbo somewhat. However, it is leaps and bounds better than being apart! I should have been a bit more clear about the RCMP check, so, just to clarify, the sponsor does not have to send in any info for that. And the...

No problem victorialad, My husband is from Indoneisa. He tried getting a TRV in November also after we sent in the PR, but he was refused (which I heard is verrry common for people applying for PR - only after did I understand this). So, he is living in Indoneisa now, and I am with him! Since...

Hello all, Sent application in mid Nov 2009 Sent back to us in mid Dec due to missing signature Sponsor was approved in January 2010 Began processing in Singapore early Feb 2010 Photos sent back in May 2010, and a request was sent for fingerprints to the RCMP Now we are waiting for the RCMP to...

Thanks boyee6576, I hope he wont have to do an interview... sigghhh, but if so we will be ready!

It is a shame really that applicants from developing countries get it harder, but if thats how things are, then what can you do? My husband is Indonesian (from Jakarta). We met in Canada when he was going to school there. We got our photos back already, and are just now waiting on an RCMP...

Ok, that sounds good. I hope it is the case that they are indeed satisfied with our evidence, and they do think our relationship is genuine. But, I will still gather (not send) more evidence (photos, ticket stubs, etc) to be prepared in case they do ask for an interview. Thank you both for your...

Hello, I am just curious about which countries are considered "high risk" (according to immigration or other) when concerning marriage fraud? And, which countries is immigration most suspicious about? I am asking this purely out of curiousity. Thanks

Hello, I have a question regarding submitting new information to CIC during the application process. First, here is my situation. I am sponsoring my husband (as a Canadian citizen) who is from Indonesia via Singapore office. We sent the application in in November 2009. It was sent back to...

I agree with Karlshammar. They don't require it initially, but if you don't send one with you application you may risk your application taking longer if they request it later (as they did with my husband). His application has been in Singapore since Feb 2010, and in May they requested...
