    APRIL 2014 OUTLAND APPLICANTS

    Received PPR so we've sent it off with Appendix B and will hopefully get COPR soon! The PPR said that the COPR will be valid until March 6 2015. We won't be ready to move over then yet so it looks like my partner will be taking a short trip to Vancouver to land. We've both working on projects at...

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Our status changed to 'decision made' in ecas today!! So very excited. It also said that they had started processing the application on September 25th, so I have a feeling it will be positive, especially if there was only 4 days processing! :D

    Still waiting! This part of the process has to be the worst. We received AOR2 from Sydney on July 22, so it's likely there's still quite a wait for us, based on everyone else's experience. Such a shame, as Sydney seemed to be moving so quickly a few months ago. How is everyone getting through...

    Something similar happened to us - my partner is a Kiwi as well and when we received our SA letter, it indicated that the application had been sent "abroad" to Ottawa-CPC, rather than Sydney. The call centre wasn't able to tell me anything other than "some applications get sent to Ottawa...

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    I had that same issue! There's a generic email you can use, rather than the case specific enquiry form. I used the email on Wednesday evening and had a reply on Friday morning. sydney-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Hi Ganubie - just an update for you... My partner received an email today saying that his application was received on 04/29/14, and listed Sydney as the VO. I’m assuming that the original letter we received stating our application was sent to Ottawa was incorrect, but I still have not received a...

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    What a relief to know we weren't the only ones! It must have something to do with the Working Holiday... I ended up ringing the office which was a nightmare to begin with living in NZ, and the person I spoke to put me on hold and then basically told me that 'sometimes files are sent to Ottawa...

    File transferred to CPC Ottawa even though applied through Sydney??

    Hi everyone – hoping someone can shed some light on this for me. I received SA today, and the accompanying email said that our application has been forwarded to the following visa office abroad, and then listed CPC Ottawa. My partner and I are currently living together in New Zealand (I am...

    Received SA this morning! Interestingly, the email said that our application has been forwarded to CPC-O - Case Processing Centre Ottawa, rather than Sydney (we are both living together in New Zealand at the moment). Any ideas on why they chose Ottawa? It’s a bit disappointing as the processing...

    Hi all! I just received sponsorship approval today which I am very happy about :) The email I received this morning said that the file had been forwarded to CPC-O - Case Processing Centre Ottawa.

    Spousal sponsorship

    Is anyone else a Canadian citizen currently living abroad with their partner? I am curious as to how to proved your intention to return. I am planning on going to school to get my masters but obviously could not apply yet since we are unsure when we will be able to come back, so I submitted some...

    Common-Law Sponsorship questions

    This may be a bit too late to help you, but I am a Canadian citizen currently living in NZ with my kiwi partner - I used my 2012-13 Option C printout so she should be fine to do that as well.
