    Agreed with Waiting_Eyes. I dont think there is anything wrong with sharing your good news with the rest of the forum. Not all cases get processed the same so some will get their PPR in 15-18 months, few lucky ones probably will see the visa stamped in under a year. Some unfortunate ones will...

    TRV RUles

    Again I am not talking about Super Visa which allows parents/grand parents to stay for longer periods. Without getting an extension and unless you have a stamp validating your stay beyond the normal six month period, you cannot stay longer than six months in a year on a TRV. That is how I...

    TRV RUles

    I will like to add something here. If the person stays in Canada for say 6 months straight, then decides to leave and attempts to come back after couple of weeks/months, he/she may be denied entry. The max time a visitor is supposed to spend in Canada on a TRV is 6 months in a year. So please...

    No she cannot. However, she may get enrolled in a short course that ends before her temporary visitor status expires (if you do not want to apply for her student visa). Are you still waiting on her request?

    A close relative of mine applied for TRV via TCS in first week of May and was granted one in mid June. The decision came after 30-35 working days. While one is waiting, two things are sure to happen: lots and lots of stress, and lots and lots of prayers. Best of luck... May Allah help you all...

    Visit Visa for Parents - Confusion regarding the form IMM5257-Schedule 1

    I had thought the same.. that you need Schedule 1 form only if you answered YES to any of the questions. In Pakistan, this is not the case.. TCS refused to accept my wife's application without that form and she had to re-submit. Another person I know.. he submitted his wife's application without...

    Where my files will be?

    Actually that is not entirely true. After stage 1 approval and depending on how simple (or complicated) your case is, the file may either go to Ottawa first (simple cases) or directly to Islamabad (complicated cases). Eventually all files end up in Islamabad for interviews (if any) and visa...

    Mrs. Fatima, I would not say it will cause you problems, it is just a little unsusal (while not that uncommon in Western countries) and CHC will probably look at your file very closely. My suggestion is provide as much proof of your relationship as possible (emails, chat history, call logs...

    This is a good thread for us Pakistanis. I have already sponsored my wife for Permanent Residence, got stage 1 approval and in the mean time, also applied for her TRV. The TRV application was received at CHC on May 3rd and still awaiting the response. I know the current processing time is 40...

    I would start with Canadian High Commission to Pakistan website first to get a list of the mandatory forms needed. You can then search this forum or Google to find out what other documentation can you provide to show proof of relationship, finances, cover letter, invitation letter, explain the...

    That is good news. How long did it take your wife to get her TRV from application date to getting passport back? Also did you apply online or via paper application? Thankyou !!

    Not for me. If I could go back in time, I would re-marry the same girl over and over again. I love my wife. Allah hum sub kee madad karay! Before marrying my wife in Pakistan, I thought about the long processing time as well. But for me, the long term benefit of finding the right person was more...

    As far as I know you can get the medical done from any authorized medical physician anywhere in the world and they will send the results to CHC-I. They might ask you to give them a prepaid envelope or pay for return postage to Pakistan. Your wife can reply to the email and tell them that she is...

    While I agree with the first part of your statement... 28 months being too long, I dont with the second. Canadian immigration is well aware of our culture and they know we cannot live together as a couple without having done a Rukhsati. So before they can issue you a PR visa, they want to make...
