Only the police certificate, and family composition (keed 3a2ely), they have 3 months validity, and medical examination has 1 year
But don't worry, make them just before translating your documents and before submission, it won't matter, if they need them again they're going to inform you and that rarely happens
Thank you.

Hi All,
I applied for FSW 2104 and my application reached CIO on 8 May 2014, got my PER on 13 August 2014. I called CIO and they told me that my application was transfered to Cairo VO on 8 Sep 2014.
Since PER 13 Aug I have heard nothing about my application, this is more than 6 months!
I sent emails to Cairo VO and Ottawa with no answer at all.

Please advise what to do.

I am sponsoring my Egyptian husband for permanent residency. Our application is at the Cairo Visa office and I can see online they have received his application and his medical records.
Last month he applied for a tourist visa to Canada because I am about to have our baby any day now here in Canada. He was denied the visa because he didn't have enough ties to Egypt to ensure CIC that he would return to Egypt. We knew it would be difficult to get approved, but had to try so he could be here for our baby's birth.

My question is: Do we need to send a letter to CIC to report this denied tourist visa to Canada? since he answered NO in perm res application to having any visa denied.

I'm not sure if if effects our perm res application or not, and I don't want to do anything that will hinder our process. And I'm afraid to call CIC to ask them in case I'm shooting ourselves in the foot with mentioning it to them, although I would imagine they will find out upon doing their process of our application.

Any advice?

I have no idea if the Canadian embassy in Cairo is closed for doing its routine work like processing PRs and Visas or it's just the fact of having the embassy door open to the public without an interview or invitation.

I believe Cairo visa office is working on processing applications. All best of luck ;)

You should've waited for stage one to finish before applying for a visitor visa (i.e sponsorship approval), he would've had better chances..
As for the permanent residence application, did he send the application before or after he was denied a visa ? As long as the information was truthful at the time of sending the application, you're fine.. Otherwise, yeah, ur best bid is to send an explanation letter that it was an honest mistake.

Apart from presenting false information to CIC, refusal of TRV has no effect the PR application.
