Hey everyone! Update from the Sydney VO: Got BGC IP Dec 5th, after getting GCMS notes that said RFV repeatedly. Jan 20th ecas has changed to DM, and haven't gotten anything all week. After a call to the call centre all I got was "I can see all the assessments have been passed, so that...

Hey! Wanted to update that our ecas has changed to DM last weekend, and haven't gotten anything all week. After a call to the call centre all I got was "I can see all the assessments have been passed, so that generally means they're in process of approving it". So...yaay? Does anyone know the...

Update! I've been staying off the forums as reading too much can really mess with your mental state while you're waiting for everything to go through. PA just checked and background has changed to in progress (updated spreadsheet). He can't remember the last time he checked and actually paid...

Hi all, Is this thread still active and can anyone share any light on there outcome? Thank you in advance.

Got GCMS notes, very disappointed (details here: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/messages-not-uploaded-to-gckey.526028/ ) so Sydney has application but CPC Miss hasent even started BGC

Hey everyone, update for my timeline. Got GCMS notes and there was a screw up with the online account (detailed here: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/messages-not-uploaded-to-gckey.526028/) BGC not even started according to notes, very disappointed as if...

Call the call center and ask if you've had a schedule A request. Give them your app number and UCI so the call is logged in your notes. The same thing happened to my partner and I. App received May 1, SA May 25, Medical May 30, then radio silence. Turns out a "technical error" was actually the...

Hey everyone! Sorry to interrupt but if anyone can answer I'd appreciate it: Do british citizens need to send in their original passport to the VO when PPR or COPR is requested? My partner is english but we've applied out of NZ so the Sydney visa office forum just says all aussies and kiwis are...

Hey everyone, Just putting this out there to see if anyone has had experience with CPC-Miss not uploading messages re: requests for medical or schedule A. My partner and I received his GCMS notes this morning and saw that they actually requested his schedule A in June (about 2 weeks after...

Nothing for us. PA's ecas still showing as in process and BGC hasn't switched to being processed. 30 days for our notes will be Nov 1st so waiting for that to hopefully give us some insight.

Right, this is what I was trying to explain to him but there isn't anything distinctly clear on CBSA or IRCC about this. So I assume the background check waiting is because of his travelling history etc. And are background checks done in Canada or at the VO? I was hoping because Sydney had...

Hey everyone, I wasn't sure what a catchy title would be. Basically my question is for anyone who might have insight about the standards used to determine eligibility for a visitor visa and then BGC they do for PR. Background: My partner had a DUI conviction over 15 yrs ago (when he was 18) so...

So are you saying my partner - we lived together for 20 months in NZ - could have come here on a tourist visa and applied inland with the OWP? I thought we had thoroughly researched it and that wasn't possible, as the point of inland applications is to keep couples who met in Canada together...

We flew into YVR and he came with me through the Canadian passport line. They asked why he was coming to Canada and he said to attend a wedding and meet his partner's family and he was through.

I thought to qualify for inland sponsorship (and the owp) you already had to be legally allowed to work in Canada? Otherwise everyone would apply inland to get the owp, no?

I'm so sorry to hear about the problems with your application, thank you for the details. I saw in your post history you also have a child together, so our cases are very different. Are you currently in Canada as well? Did they say why they requested an interview? As we're in Canada now I'm...

Hello, I don't mean to pry but could you give a few more details about your specific case? Seeing 14 months is giving me a panic attack! Is yours a spousal visa? When was yours transferred to Sydney office? Are you the PA or sponsor - as in was the interview done in Sydney? Did they give reasons...

It's tedious but you cannot leave any gaps in time. My partner backpacked around SE Asia for almost a year and we had to go through his passport and write down all the entry/exit stamps' dates. Then we wrote a supplementary sheet and explained that for each month we put down the country where he...

My partner and I are in this scenario. We left New Zealand (where we had been living for a year and a half) and have been travelling Canada and visiting my family for the past 2ish months. He's on a tourist visa, was granted Full 6 months at the airport, and now we'll either leave and come back...

Found the doc for anyone whose app is in MISS. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/ob570-stream.513446/ Lots of talk about if you don't meet the criteria (or triage you very low) that they'll just process it normally. So I'm not sure if I'm thankful or not...
