    Hello Ontime, ADVO did not ask me to redo the medical. They sent me the PPR last month. Are you saying you already had your interview and that they kept your Passport at the time of interview and asked you to submit documents after the interview? Was part of the additional documentation to...

    Hi Sokara, Were you wanting to send me your kind wishes, or to someone named Imran? Either way, thanks so much. Long wait, yes. It was worth it.

    Hello Samarah, Not sure about your first question but let me try answering the second one. I was not asked to cancel any DXB Residence Visa before or after sending the Passport.

    Hello, After a year of waiting, I have finally received my PPR. Woohoo! :) The PPR was sent to me on the 2nd week of October. Sent it to ADVO through Aramex and it took 22 days in total to receive my passport back with the Visa and COPR. So yes, I have my passport back as well. Truly...

    Hello Chilkootcee, Yes, it really is. But hopefully it will all work out. About adding my details on the spreadsheet, I don't have all the specific details except for the timeline I have mentioned on left. My Consultant has been handling all of it so I don't have exact dates unfortunately.

    No Question is a silly question. My Mrs wants my last name as well. We will initiate that process when we're together. I have not faced a similar situation nor do I have an answer to it. What I can do is point out the change CIC and yourself will need to go through because I honestly don't...

    Well, I haven't travelled outside the UAE since 2009. And, I haven't lived in any other country. And I was born in Dubai. And I actually haven't even travelled before 2009 to anymore than one place for a visa change, which is just a matter of a few days.

    Hello flx2015, Yes, my point exactly. The option to apply for a TRV is definitely available but chances are slim in obtaining one. I think that's a question all ADVO Applicants are asking themselves and each other. I would hate to think that applications for the likes of those waiting since...

    Hi Zohaib, I am not sure what is next but like many people here, when they received Decision Made, they received their PPR's soon after.

    Hi Zohaib007, did you get your PPR ?

    That sounds great. Good for you guys to get that time together. I'm guessing it eases the pressure of the waiting game. My Mrs is in Canada and I live in Dubai. I would have applied for a Visit Visa to go spend some time with her but I believe CIC discourages applying for a Visit when the...

    I was unfortunate to miss out on two Weddings in Canada this year as I didn't get my visa in time. But whats more painful if that sadly my Mrs and I are going to miss out on our first Wedding Anniversary together, which is on the 15th of September. We never thought we would still be waiting...

    Hi taniam00 That's a good question and definitely one I have asked myself before. Quite honestly, I don't know how that works because there are no Visa Offices in many of the places mentioned. So, how do they calculate that time as per Country? Not sure. Having said that, a two-month...

    Hello JamilZ Welcome to the forum. To answer your question, we wish we had one. There is no sure way of telling how long it would take for a Decision. If your documents are being processed at the Abu Dhabi Visa Office, they currently show 14 Months for processing times, however, that is just...
