    That is awesome! I just got my wife's passport sent to my work! Will also be leaving in mid Jan! P.S. Anyone experienced in traveling with your pet? We have a cat and we need to bring it in the cabin with us. (So far the only Airline that we found that allows that is Air Canada)

    We ended up sending the missing doc and passport on the 12th and the Embassy signed the package on the 15th. I guess I will hear from them in a month or so. Regardless of that the visa that will be attached to the passport would only be valid for 1 year starting from the day of the medical...

    Nothing yet. How long does it usually take to get passport back after PPR? 30days?

    Congrats on the AOR2, think your PPR is just around the corner. (Ours was about 2 weeks after) Don't worry that the UCI was changed. The UCI issued from Mississauga was for you as a sponsor. The new one is for your wife's application for perm res.

    Hi Kysorb I think the only reason they asked for her birth certificate in the PPR was because we never included it in the original package. (I dont even remember whether the original package asked for that) It seems most people only get a request for the passport. -Michael

    Hi Liam Thanks for the tip. In case anyone is wondering about this, we went to the official city notary. It costed about 200 RMB and we had to supply her HuKou. It is issued with English translation and takes about 4 work days (expedited processing so we can pick it up on Friday) -Michael

    Living OUTSIDE canada but filling as RESIDENT - ISSUES!!

    Does not look like you severed residential ties to Canada. You should file as a resident eventhough you do not physically living in Canada. ;D

    Wait a minute, this letter has the app receipt date as 03/06/2014. This is March 6 not June 3rd! This is the original date of receipt in the first AOR I got from Mississauga. Does that mean the 8 months count down starts from the date of this letter (Aug 26) or the Mississauga receipt date...

    The signature is simple enough as I am currently living together with my wife in China. As for AOR2, I listed my email as my wife's representative so I should be getting it. But it's been months and no words on that yet. It is a little comforting knowing not everyone gets AOR2. Hope it's not...

    Previous Common Law Relationship?

    Thanks for the tip, appreciate your help here~! I think the reason was that we did not submit enough info to convince them, however that's the past now. Do you think that a declaration of severance of common-law relationshio would be needed for the previous relationship? I find it hard to find...

    Previous Common Law Relationship?

    Thanks for your input. I guess I was just confused whether it is still common law if it was rejected. But you are right, they have all the info and it's best to acknowledge the previous application. - Michael
