Hi everyone! I hope all is well and that good news is on the way. My husband landed in Calgary on March 1. It was so surreal. My daughter and I got to the airport just as his flight landed and he messaged me telling me he was here. I knew it would take a little extra time but, once everyone on...

Hey all! After my husband got his PPR on Feb 7, he sent it that same day to the VO in Mexico City. He got his passport back today with a gorgeous shiny visa in it. His flight is booked and he will be landing here in Calgary on March 1. I still can't believe that this is almost over. I don't...

You will receive your PR card about 6 weeks after landing in Canada.

My husband's aunt works in the social security offices at IMSS in Mazatlan. That's where he got his info from. Google says your hubby can go here: Reforma 476, Juárez, Cuauhtémoc, 06600 Ciudad de México, Distrito Federal, Mexico

Hi zimbub, My husband also couldn't remember some dates. He has an aunt that works for social services in Mexico and she was able to pull up his complete work history since before he was 18. Of course, this didn't include jobs that were paid in cash. For any gaps in time, we simply put that he...

WE GOT PPR TODAY!! So happy and grateful and excited and shocked! My husband will be here by the end of the month! Best Friday Ever! :D :D :D

One address is the Visa section. The other address is the Consular section.

Congratulations!!!!! :D

This is the correct address where all applications, document requests, and passports are sent to: Embassy of Canada – Visa Section Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra 193 Col. Granada Del. Miguel Hidalgo 11520 Mexico City, D.F. Mexico

I didn't write an essay but, I did write a one page summary of our relationship which was mostly important dates. When we met, each visit, etc. All that stuff was in the application somewhere but the summary just put it all together so it's easier to reference. It's not a requirement at this...

Courier is to the embassy so you can track it and confirm that it got there. Include a letter with your file and UCI number so they can match it with your file.

In our doc request, Mexico City asked for 2 things that we sent in the original application; my husband's previous addresses and a copy of his passport data page. Someone over there is either not doing their job properly or they ask for random documents just for kicks. So irritating. I would...

You can apply for a TRV but, the chances of him getting approved for it are slim to none as he obviously has ties to Canada. You have to convince the VO beyond a shadow of a doubt that your husband will return to Mexico when the TRV expires. It's almost impossible. The fact that you are living...

He doesn't have to do the one year of service, he just needs the precartilla or cartilla.

Yes. Other countries going through Mexico VO will have different procedures.

I found this information on the ARC. It really depends on the circumstances on why the person left Canada; their own will or being asked to via Departure, Exclusion, or Deportation Order. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/inadmissibility/arc.asp Knowing your own circumstances should...

If you send your passport as soon as it is requested, I think the average has been about one to three weeks to get it back. I wouldn't suggest making any travel plans until your passport is back in your hands. I've also heard that you can go straight to the embassy in the morning and have it...

Hi Chauncey, It takes about a month to get SA (Sponsor Approval) then 3 months to receive AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt) from the Mexico City VO (Visa Office). 80% of applications are processed within 14 months. Some will fall outside of that timeline. PGR is Procuraduría General de la...

You got AOR from Mexico City one month after the transfer?!? That is AMAZING!! I'm so glad they're working faster to catch up after the strike. I'm sorry I don't know about the CSQ as I'm in Alberta but, I've talked to a few other people and no one got the PGR translated so, we're not going to...

Yes, attach the original document either by printing or screen shot. I wouldn't suggest sending an email that is 35 pages long. A random sample with varying dates from the start of your relationship until present is sufficient. Try to include conversations about your lives together. Some...
