I had a very hectic day yesterday and slept a solid nine hours, last night. I talked to a few close friends, and ones that supplied sponsor letters. I will be calling my partner at 11 am 5pm overseas today. An appeal would cost around $10 grand and take another year or two, and 3 red flags (age...

Vienna Interview today: Not good news, My partner and I will discuss our options tomorrow, .on the phone we are both mature individuals so there won't be any weeping or gnashing of teeth, as we work the best plan for both of us, we still love each other. I may or may not continue to post.

Yes Vienna has had our application since Oct 15/13. I am his sponsor and legal rep although not a lawyer. I wrote a letter saying it was 18 months and we had not heard anything. A week later, VO wrote back and now My partner in Budapest, is scheduled for an Interview April 23 in Vienna.

So let me get this straight You had an interview at the Canadian Embassy in Vienna for your family class sponsorship application. The Visa Officer then asked you to fill out a form and give them $400, when did this happen? I did a search on your name and found nothing about this?

Here's a Vienna Spread sheet, It was started by whoever started this thread. and I don't think anyone is working on it. for months, its rather complicated with too many variables. Perhaps someone could start a new one...

Does anyone know if an Interview is different than the "authorization to return to Canada" form and letter plus $400 fee or do they request and Interview, than make you do the form and pay the extra fee of $400 before issuing a COPR? Something tells me it wouldn't be a two step process, but I...

All our fees are paid. I noticed a change of fee payment page. If you were deported the Government charged $1500 for plane fare, that item is no longer on the fee payment page? I hope it's gone its a big chunk of money. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp

Letter to Vienna sparks Interview request after 18 month wait. Our eCas never did change from Application received to In Progress and Decision made. Sent a what's up letter after 18 months. Response......today Friday March 23, 2015 An interview has been scheduled for MY PARTNER at the...

I don't understand why Vienna would request his passport for Interview April 23. Everything has expired Police and Medical and he owes for $1500 for deportation trip. I'm just worried that Conservatives have hate-on for Roma, they will fail him on a cooked up excuse I ran though 200 possible...

Thanks for your help we did find a street map, although not very accurate. The uBahn (Subway) station is Schwedenplatz. I like the taxi idea better Embassy street map: http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/austria-autriche/visas/contact-contactez.aspx?lang=eng

My partner wants to take a Bus from Budapest, how does he get from Bus Terminal to Embassy in Vienna for his interview April 23rd.? Anyone have a link to map or better still directions.

A lawyer friend suggested. A. M will have to know every detail of your life: past partners, jobs, family members, etc to overcome their bias with respect to the age difference. If there is further evidence of the relationship since you filed it – money sent, letters, emails, etc – A.M...

Thanks for the feedback guys.......I wrote a Letter to Vienna Visa Office today My partner A.M. and I have not heard anything from the Vienna Office in 17 months (Oct 15, 2013). We did receive a confirmation letter dated March 10, 2014 that you had received Mr. A.M new passport. We don’t know...

,"as we all thought Vienna office is fast lately" - It only seems fast because many of the applications have no red flags and are easy application to process. Congratulations on a quick turn around, you're one of the lucky ones. We on the other hand, are still waiting after 17 months and...

That's great...Thanks for sharing I also got the link from jagoda83 though a private message. I noticed Processing Time is climbing again. Sponsor approval was 30 days a year ago, its now 3 months + the 17 Vienna has it. 20 Months in total. Family Class Sponsorship is no longer a priority for...

So you didn't have to provide your own translator? Might be good idea to bring one anyway. and can you please provide the link to - On the forum there is a link for interview questions, there are 83 or so,

I am really sorry to hear this, I thought you had a good case. So if we don't visit our better half's, are cases are nul and void. It seems the VO is becoming more like the IRB the officers are all Conservative appointees. I suspect they don't want failed refugees to ever return, no matter the...

Thanks everyone for tips and ideas. Yes our local MP Andrew Cash, calls every 4 months to CIC Montreal all they tell him is they are working on the file, which is baloney as per the case notes I saw in August. Our feeling is our file is on the bottom of some Visa Officers work to do. Andew Cash...
