Mikeyvr,

Did you send another medical ? if yes, did they ask for it or you just went ahead & send it without them asking?

I was just wondering, because Vienna VO already received the PR application back again to their office on May 3, 2011. My husband got a new police clearance from his country on March 2011 for appeal court hearing purposes. this is still gonna be valid until June 2011. What do you think, should I send the police clearance in advance so when they receive it, it is still valid & not need to ask a new one again? I also have his medical, updated forms (e.g. imm0008, sch 1, addl family info, photos, ARC) but Visa office didn't request it yet. Should I send only the police clearance for now & send later the rest of the documents when visa office will request it?

Thanks.

Thats a hard one to respond , they had police certificates on mine , but at last minute they requested a new one aparently the one on file was expried. not sure how long they are good for.

A month before my medicals were to expire , i went a did the medicals on my own , and send the original copy that the doctor give me , make a copy for urself before u send it , send it directly to your visa office.

So, with all the "senior" members (or members who seem to have a plethora of knowledge) here, has NOBODY determined what the real difference between B and F numbers are?? SOMEONE must know! ???

I FOUND THIS ON ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT CAIPS FILES AND ITS CODES.


MEDICAL STATUS CODE

R Documents rec'd from physician, but not yet assessed
F Case furthered
B Pending review by Medical Advisory Board

H Pending decision by HQ
A Assessed and finalized
N No document received for this family member

MY FILE WAS ALWAYS A B0XXXXXXX FILE BUT 2 WEEKS AGO I GOT AN EMAIL FROM IMMIGRATION TO LET ME KNOW ABOUT MY SCHEDULED INTERVIEW AND AT THE TOP IT HAS A F0XXXXXXX FILE NUMBER, I TRIED WITH BOTH NUMBERS ON ECAS USING MY NAME, LOCATION AND DOB AND IT WORKED, I CAN LOG IN WITH BOTH FILES, SO IM GUESSING IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STAGE OF YOUR APPLICATION.

The visa office in Rabat received our application for permanent residence on March 31. On May 8, I sent an email to the visa office inquiring about our case as I wanted to plan my summer vacation. Before blowing $4000 to spend my summer vacation in Morocco where my husband lives now, I wanted to know if he was about to have his visa processed or not. They answered me the following day and they told me this: "Your application is in queue for review. An exact review schedule is not yet available. However, all applications are reviewed in the order in which they were received. No further action is required by you at this time. We thank you for your patience and for keeping your correspondence to a minimum."

I noticed what they wrote in the subject line: "B######### & F#########".

How come I got both a Bxxxx file number AND a Fxxxx file number if our application was just in queue for review?

Also I was able to login our file using the Bxxxx file number, but not the Fxxxx file number. What I did is that I selected Immigration File Number instead of Client ID Number and I use the Bxxx file number and it worked! Nothing worked for the Fxxx file number.

hey there, when you want to check up your status application with using Bxxxx you have to choose file number on the category and the other one client ID you have to put 8 numbers withouth any letter .hope you do it well
