I believe the due date is the date that they would like the file and or that section of it to be finished.

I am sure others will reply and give you their opinions and or share their experience.

Take Care

Yes, duedate means visa officer will pickup your file on or before that date and will decide whether they want to have interview or not and if they want they schedule you for a date and will send you a letter.

Duedate section is for the visa officers .. When they want to pick up a file or make a decision on a file before that date.

Usually they schedule after 2-3 months. (in my case i was scheduled for after 4months)

its very hard

I can feel what you feel.
for me its like 14months and whenever I feel I am loosing my patience, I just think about the VO which has 20+ months processing time which calms me .

Seriously people here who just dont have patience should look onto you guys.. you guys are best example of being patient and hanging there..

Hi All,
Thank you very much for sharing your experiences and making me understand the notes. Well, sadly, I read the notes again and it says "an interview is required".They have doubts on silly things. My wife lives in Toronto, she was on EI when she sponsored me.I am experienced in mining industry so I had metioned Labrador as my destination after landing. We had planned to move there if needed and CIC doubts on that issue :eek: Can't somebody think of moving? We were just honest about our plans. They also have doubt about our relationship. We are a mature couple and have found soul mates at a later stage of life after being divorced. my wife mentioned in a question ( "if any of her children have met me?" ) that her children from her EX husband have not met me as they would not approve our marriage. Its obvious in South Asian culture about second marriages of parents that grownup kids may not approve the relationship but CIC thinks its something fishy lol. For these things they want to have an interview. My VO is LA ,USA. Does anyone have idea how long is their processing times?

Right now the processing time is 19 months (which is a LONG wait) but I would say (from my experience) once you are done with interview (as per your GCMS notes say) you will be near.
My interview was in early april and I got PPR a week ago. Ofcourse it depends on how your interview went and other things IF they have already done like criminality, security, medical. If these things are already done by cic then it should not take time. Its just the eligibility you need to pass.
But before that just wait till you get interview date...(thats more important)

about you say CIC thinks something is fishy, I would think the same thing...why didnt your wife made you meet her children... this is something CIC would think like this. I know its something in your culture is not easily acceptable but CIC would not think like that...

But if your marriage is genuine then just be confident and your love will be seen by CIC and you will get approved

Hi UsCa,
I understand what you are saying. Her children are adults married and living with her ex husband, haven't grownup in western culture and believes in typical one marriage tradition, thats the reason she hasn't told them. They think she shouldn't have divorced their father though her life was hell with him. Well hope we can make IO understand that.

SALAM,
Let me frank with you all ok
If at anytime they are requesting an INTERVIEW do your best to get out of it if your able to.

Send more info on your relationship chats, phone calls with bills to show, also trips to visit each other anything of that nature to prove your relationship. Because once they receive this they then change their minds about a genuine relationship.

So don't wait till the cows come home to do this but do it now ok I pray all will be fine In Sha Allah
