Husband landed yesterday. Thank you guys for all the encouraging words and thank god that I found this forum to keep me sane during the wait.

I would read into a super visa. Since it asks for a specific income in the last year it proves to them that you have the funds. Since you buy a year's worth of insurance beforehand (you can get your money back of it doesn't happen) you're telling them they won't be a burden on the medical...

Was it a regular visa or a super visa? For parents super visas are less often denied according to an immigration consultant who's a friend. And she also says not to do it online (I don't know how you did yours) because anyone in the world could be opening the file. Doing it in their country is...

I got them April 15 only because I was seeing movement on other people's files and I wanted to see what the holdup with us was. We had gotten AOR 2 a month before but people in our timeline were getting payment requests and we hadn't heard anything. It was just curiosity I guess. But I am super...

I was trying to figure out where the transfer date on the notes is to update the table. Any ideas where I could get that information from?

I found that calling the French lines was a lot easier, just claim you messed up and they'll speak to you in English ;)

They are taking the same 30 days. We had ordered ours back in April and it just happened that they moved within that timeline.

I did the same thing. I would even check in the middle of the night when they were obviously closed because I was that obsessed. And I didn't check for an hour at work and it just so happened that it was the one time my father-in-law did. Obviously that's when the status had changed. of course I...

Husband picked up passport today! Buying tickets now! I've heard people saying that you need to make a list of what you're bringing, I'd this true? He's only bringing clothes, shoes and paperwork. Maybe currency greater than 10000 if he manages to sell his car. is there a guide for this...

Thanks CANzanillo for everything you're doing with the timeline, I have (yet another) suggestion, I'll probably stop soon :) I was thinking that after passport request date you could have a passport sent or a passport received by visa office column, because some people send the passport the next...

Unfortunately, DHL was our only option but I remembered and revisited all your previous posts about it. I micromanaged everything from Canada and I made sure my husband knew exactly what he should have done so he could spot anything but it seems everything was done according to plan, they should...

To CANzanillo, I know you've taken the spreadsheet under your wing so I have a suggestion, since the Mexico VO processes other countries as well it might be helpful to specify what country the applicant is from. For example, my husband didn't have to do the Mexican police step and we just sent...

Thanks Elle!

Just got passport and payment request today! Off to read posts on this airway bill business! So excited. That means he's accepted right? No way to say no now? I'm a constant worrier :)

Has anyone applied for a visitor visa while waiting for the sponsorship to finish? Getting holidays for me to go there is nearly impossible and he has 2 weeks off.

Hey guys, 2 questions about the notes. 1) is it 30 calendar days or 30 business days before receiving them; and 2) are the notes from when you order them or from when they send it to you? If anyone has any idea I'd appreciate the information :)

According to my lawyer they switch between different people for different parts of the process. This apparently is done for efficiency since the officer gets used to doing security checks or something and also for accountability. It's to avoid one officer having a bad feeling about your...

I know someone in this thread posted a while back a step-by-step process in requesting the GMCS notes but I can't find it for the life of me. If anyone knows where I can find it please let me know.

Hey, sorry to bother you but you're the only other Costa Rica applicant so I was wondering what they asked for. I know the Schedule A is basically standard but did they ask for a police check or any other forms? We submitted a police check when we first applied but I can't remember now if it had...

I know people who have not even received AOR but I would call or submit a case specific form for Mexico because I know how much it sucks not knowing. If it was opened around Christmas they might have just forgotten to e-mail you or something. People say no goods is good news but I would still...
