    Congratulations on having it all behind you now. Just a question. I presume from what you have said that you went through customs together as a couple and the interview was with both of you present. As my wife and I will be entering Canada together (Toronto Pearson Airport), just wondering how...

    We are in Guangxi. My wife (born well before 1990!), first went to the police station to get them to produce a document verifying her birth information but when they found out she use to be an employee of a large company, advised her to get confirmation of her birth information there. She did so...

    I would go along with Kysorb on the fees. First, I have seen it mentioned on many different threads. Secondly, I didn't pay mine up front and our application was "lagging" others. So I paid the fee and our app suddenly speeded up. I can't guarantee the cause and effect but everyone says to pay...

    Yes I was worried about that as well especially with no work/education/residence link. Fortunately a google search led me to a post somewhere on this Immigration Forum that recommended, amongst other things, having a letter from a family member that you will be living with them. So I had my son...

    After being behind the eight ball for quite a while our application is really starting to move. Beijing Visa Office. App Rec'd - May 28 AOR - Aug 11 AOR2 - Sep 26 Applicant "in process" - Sep 30 Maybe follow-ups and/or paying the final PR fee made a difference.

    I posted about a month ago as I had issues with my SA being late and when I followed up they sent me my client number with an "In process" status and the very next day the status was changed to "Decision Made" effective August 11. The problem was they mailed the results and my past experience on...

    The applicant's information does indicate app received and medicals received. It also indicated that when the sponsor status was in process (yesterday) but that was still after the purported August 11 decision date. Any idea why they wouldn't advise by email? Thanks for the reply by the way.

Yesterday I received an email reply with the UIC saying the app was in process. I checked on-line with the UIC and indeed it...
