Hi! Just wanted to input my experience- My boyfriend and I applied common-law. He is American as well. We applied outland in August 2017 and we had to attend an interview in Los Angeles (where you would have to go if you had to do one as well). As others said, it is very rare but clearly it CAN...

Visa office was originally Mississauga but then transferred to Los Angeles! Thanks everyone :)

Hello! August 8th applicant here that went for an interview April 18th, got DM on the spot and COPR in hand. Landed April 21st!!

Hi guys! Just wanted to share our experience. We are an Outland common-law application that was transferred to Los Angeles VO and asked to attend an interview April 18th. The interview was long and difficult, but it went well and the officer approved us on the spot and gave my boyfriend his COPR...

Congrats!! We had our interview Wednesday and were approved at the time and give COPR. So excited to finally be done with everything!

Did you guys ever order your notes? I know you had mentioned you didn't know why you were being transferred.. just curious if you ended up finding a reason?

We did submit a few pieces of mail, I didn't know how much they wanted. I have more that I will bring to the interview along with my 2017 NOA that has us filed as common-law on my taxes. Also have a letter from my employer that was initially included but will bring it again. What would the...

We provided what we could... documents from my work benefits listing him as a beneficiary, joint credit card and bank account statements. The letter from my parents stating that all utility bills and rent is paid to them, hence the no lease agreement/bills in both names. I wrote a letter...

Anybody have any idea about the original questions I had by chance?

He is American! (and he's my boyfriend, not married). I think we might be one of the unlucky ones. I did request notes previously and there was a few notes made in there that made sense I guess. I also have another set coming in a few weeks as well but they were requested after we were sent to...

Hi guys, Yesterday my common-law boyfriend and I got requested to have an interview at the Los Angeles VO next month. On the letter it asks you to bring a few things and I have some questions about it. 1. It asks for "two statutory declarations from individuals with personal knowledge of your...

Got an email today from LA that we are being called for an interview and its scheduled for April 18th

Hey guys! Guess I'm joining you here. Got an email from Mississauga that our file was transferred to Los Angeles on Jan 30th. Haven't received any email or update since then. No changes in GCKEY or ECAS. Have no criminal history or any reason that I can possibly think of for being transferred...

That doesn't make sense because my boyfriend is currently in Canada with me and we were transferred to LA... Don't understand how they can say something like that when it's not true!! So frustrating

I did order notes a few weeks ago now, they should be here by February 22nd. I did order them before the file got transferred though, so I'm not sure what it will say on there. And I haven't tried to call for the same reason haha! And the fact that they are apparently useless on the phone, not...

Hi! We have a very similar situation actually. Except we were transferred to the Los Angeles VO (as my boyfriend is a US citizen). Our dates are almost exactly the same, we were being fully processed in Mississauga as well and our background check started mid December too. ECAS changed to in...

I hope so. As far as I could tell from previous cases it would be because they want an interview, but I'm unsure why they would ask us for one! Guess we'll wait to find out if they request anything. Thanks!

Hey guys! We are a August applicant that has been getting processed by the Mississauga VO from the very beginning, background check has already started in December and ECAS changed to in progress a few days ago- just got an email tonight saying our application has been forwarded to the Los...

Hey guys! August 8th applicant, just noticed today when logging in to GCKey that they are now processing our background check (not sure exact date this changed, but it was within the last couple days) . Also our application is being processed in Mississauga.

Got an email on Friday (October 20th) that our application will be processed at CPC Mississauga. August 8th applicant. Hoping for the best!!
