Well great news, the embassy calles my husband and said he can come and pick it up! I'm so excited if all goes well we should be in Canada in a week and a half! And congrats spetroun, that's awesome!

We sent in over 200 pictures I think, so would be nice to get them back, thanks for the info cinc. The passport got to the embassy on Tuesday at like 5pm according to servientrega and still no word from them. Hopefully we find out soon, flights are getting super expensive and if the prices...

We paid the deposit I think around sept 17 or so, and we just got an email last Thursday saying my husband was approved for the visa. That was the last thing they requested along with a couple other things. But my status never updated to say the background check was received... Even though it...

Ripineros: my husband paid the deposit in Colombia for the check and we never received word after that if it was received by anyone or the embassy, but we just got an email saying his visa is approved and requesting his passport, so it must have gotten there. To this day, the cic website never...

Thanks Cinc, did the embassy call or email you when he needed to pick it up?

Yeah I can't believe how fast things were processed! My husband sent his passport in yesterday, he didn't ask for the prepaid service. I'm not sure if they'll let us pick it up, but I guess we'll find out soon hopefully ! I think they'll send it back without a prepaid waybill, or so I hope.

I'm so excited, my husband got the email requesting his passport and saying he is approved for the permanent resident visa!! Total time for our application was just under 5 months in total including the time it was sent to Canada. Spetroun, We are going to send his visa by servientrega, and...

Congratulations jf_yul! That's great news. The bogota office has definitely been on a role! Spetroun, hopefully we'll be hearing something in the next month or so would be great to all be home for Christmas!

Well this morning my status officially changed from application received to in process. It says they've started reviewing our application on October 15th. Does anyone know roughly how long it takes them to look over it? I'm so excited to see some progress!

What I ended up doing is the medical test first, because we did it after we sent in the original application, and like a week after we sent that in they sent us an email requesting the background check and his military card and proof I'll move back to Canada if he gets the visa. We sent the...

Jf congrats that's great news, we applied about a month after you, so it's good to know the cases are moving along. Spetroun, I did the same, I only sent in the receipt for the background check with the translation to the embassy, I didn't email anything to anyone. I think once the company sees...

Hey jf_yul We haven't been requested to have an interview, and hopefully not as we were only together for 13 months before we got married, but I found this website which could maybe help with what kind of questions they could ask. http://www.apnatoronto.com/canadian-immigration-interview Let...

Good to know, thanks Cinc. I feel like things are moving along great so far, just don't want to get excited for nothing.

Does anyone know when you check your application status online is it supposed to say in process if they're working on it? When I check it, the first status that appears is application received and when I click on it, it says application received June 26th and medicals received and nothing else...

Hey Ryun, let us know when she gets her passport back! The bogota office received our application July 24th so similar timeline :)

So happy to hear that, great news! Congrats!!

So my husband just did his medicals last Friday and we sent them in to the embassy. Now We got an email asking for proof that I will return to Canada, for us to pay the background fee and send in the receipt, and for us to send a notarized copy of my husbands military card? For proof on...

Now you guys are really getting my hopes up haha! Thanks Bolt! We have been dating since late 2011 and were married January 2013 so kind of similar. We sent in tons of conversations, photos, phone records, letters from my family and friends, plane tickets etc and I tried to be very organized...

Thanks Cinc! We have been dating for less time but married about the same! But he was denied a tourist and student visas last year. Hopefully wont hurt the application!
