I'm wondering the same thing. So it's okay not to upload anything for that item, even though it says 'required'?

Canuck78 & Naturgrl, thank you for your guidance; I appreciate it!

Thank you for your suggestion, Canuck78. Could you kindly expand on that a little further? Based on my research, they'll analyze our financial situation, which would be perfect; but does that mean that if we meet all the requirements, she's in the clear on the economic front? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I immigrated from Iran to Canada in January 2016 and became a Canadian citizen in the summer of 2020. It has now been six years, and I want to invite my mother to come for a visit. My mother does not have any income or allowance to her name, and my brother looks after her; I also...

Travel insurance for immigrants doesn't seem to cover walk in clinic costs, it's mainly meant for emergencies. :(

Looks like the next best option is to get travel insurance for that period of time. Just got a quote from Sunlife and it'll be around $180 for three months, any other recommendations?

Hi everyone, My spouse is scheduled to land in Canada (Vancouver) for the first time later this week. After they process her immigration documents at the airport, is she going to be medically insured? Can she walk into any clinic and have the BC government cover the costs or is there a waiting...

Thanks for the clarification everyone! Is US the only one or are there other countries I should be cautious about?

Hi everyone, I have heard that security is tight in the States and they don't allow people from non-approved countries to fly through; is there any truth to that? I'm in the process of booking a flight for my wife who was recently issued a Canadian visa in her Iranian passport. If I book her...

Thanks you guys! :) Ecas still says 'In Process' under Sponsorship (3 lines) and 'Decision Made' under PR (3 lines). It hasn't been updated yet. My wife received an email in mid November saying that we had until Dec 19th to hand over her passport at the visa office in Ankara. We re-acted right...

On Dec 8th, the Ankara visa office issued my wife's Canadian visa and she just received it today. We quickly looked through the documents and thankfully everything checked out. :D The entire process from start (Aug 14, 2015) to finish (Dec 8, 2015) took 116 days. It happened so fast that we...

Thanks everyone! My wife authorized someone to handover her passport to the visa office; should know the results within 5 to 7 days. Our Ecas status was also changed to 'Decision Made', but it still shows three lines. Going to have to wait and see what comes next...

So on November 19, my wife received an email from her visa office asking for her passport and two recent photos. the ecas status was also updated from 'In Process' to 'Decision made'. I'm still shocked how quick of a turn-around that was..., it literally took three months from when I submitted...

I got AOR on Sep24 and SA on Oct23. ECAS says its still in process, I'll check it again tomorrow to see if it changes.

Hey everyone, So I sent in my documents in mid August, got Sponsorship Approval around mid October and today my wife received this email...

Hey Farshid, I can't answer your question, but could you kindly share your timeline? I'm sponsoring my wife and just received sponsorship approval last week, curious to know how long I have to wait to hear back from them. Thank you!

Would you look at that.... the SA email finally arrived. haha I think carr1 and I both had the same person looking over our documents. ;) FYI, I called last Friday and they said that I had been approved; it's just that the email finally came in today. (two weeks later than expected, but...

1-888-242-2100 Dial 1, WAIT, Dial 3, WAIT, Dial 0 (credit to user828 & Ponga for posting that info in their signature / message)

I still haven't received a SA through either email or mail!!! On OCT 23, they told me over the phone that my sponsorship had been approved, but how come there hasn't been an email? ???
