What's the point of ARC when someone is approved in Canada by an immigration agent? I mean thr agent knows a person was deported for whatever reason, so instead of wasting resources to double work they should just cancel the ARC for people who are approved to go back and love permanently.

It is kinda judgement what we did in the past. I think thats what they think . They are taking forever to test our nerves.I totally agree with what you said It is not fair at all . Most sad part is our spouses in Canada doesn't have any power to make the proccess faster , They can only contact MP who doesnt do anything. Wish you best luck everybody thats what we need right now . Get up stand up don't give up the fight ;)

Hi forum members,
I received my notes today there is no specific information on that but there is a due date on ARC and it says FCU - pending eligibility and eligibility security and medical passed. Which makes me feel better. If they don't take it for a future date.It says may 12 ,2016 I sent my docs on march 10 2016 .

You need to say that to Dictator , Hater , Nazi Stephen Harper , ARC use to be automatically granted to all family class applicants , here came harper and made it the way it is now , needs a Ministerial approval .

you got to thank god that we got rid of stevie
It still doesn't make sense to be honest, i mean if they dont want a person, they can just simply refuse the sponsorship application and not make people waste so much money, energy.
My case is not even sponsorship, i was accepted on humanitarian grounds after being deported and i applied for ARC and got refused in 4 business days and then appealed and won the appeal.

I mean CIC accepted me and then CIC refused ARC for no reason though and thats why i won the appeal without even going to the federal court, the ministry of justice saw that the agent was dead wrong and therefore they accepted to reexamine without going to federal court to argue the case which is a good point for me.

Anyway i hope thei even cancel the ARC for approved applications.

I could really use some successful Arc stories right about now. Feeling discouraged. I honestly can't even find them on goggle unless it's some law firm, trying to get new clients.

Anyways Good Luck Everyone

I know how you feel. Yesterday morning I woke up and felt to hopeless. I felt like my life is stuck in a rut. It has been 6 weeks since I send in my ARC documents and still nothing. I have been waiting for over 4 years to have my hubby home and its not getting any easier. If anything it is getting harder everyday.

Hello AreWeDoneYet,
I just want to encourage you on this journey, waiting for the return of your approval from ARC. This procedure takes months. How do I know that, I waited months before mine was approved.

I hope this reply from CIC give you some insight. Try to keep busy and take your mind off it, because this thing will drive you insane.
All the best


This refers to the application for permanent residence in Canada of your spouse, xxxxx and your inquiry below.

Please be advised that security checks for Mrs. xxxxx application are being processed and could take from four to six months to be completed. As soon as the results of these checks are received, we will move to the next stage of processing in this case and we will contact your spouse indicating the next steps to be followed for the continued processing of her application.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the background and security check was done before ARC request. In my case they asked for a medical redo and police clearance and then a little while after they asked to submit my ARC documents. Now I am confused lol.

Thanks you so much for sharing. And you are right it is best to keep busy.
I feel bad there are ppl here waiting for a approved arc, when mine is approved. I fear I jumped into thinking I got my golden ticket. It's been nearly 3months and no Passport Request. I've asked if a Arc is a grantee Aproval and have been told no, then I've googled CIC and it says once the officer grants a arc it is intended to be a approval, but things can come up. Until that golden ticket is in my hand I feel ill always be on edge. I literally have to read these messages just to keep me sane. I thank everyone for sharing.

I've also started to think the background and security are done before arc approval. Sounds like CIC wants you to wait the 3 months to process your medical. They really should have just rushed your file out by now. May Might be the Magical Month

Hello guys,

I have a question. A friend of mine needs ARC since he was deported but he doesn't know what to write or where to begin in the letter. he is not using a lawyer so he has to do it himself. Do any of you have any samples or where he can go for help?

Hello

my lawyer paid ARC and all expenses by credit card and just gave one paper receipt to CIC, I am just curious is it done?? and I have to just wait to respond from CIC in Ankara?
they just requested paiment and did ask for any forms or something else as it was family class sponsorship.
1. how long I have to wait to get the result?
2. what about the medical which has been done and expired?
3. it is almost 2 months I am waiting.

Thank you ;D :D ;)

check the CIC site under ARC. It's basicly a apology letter. Good luck
