Hi all,
My wife's interview was originally scheduled for March 25th. However, Chandigarh high commission called my wife yesterday to reschedule her interview by a few more weeks ahead to April 7th. It's unfortunate for me now, since I'm currently in India with my wife to be accordingly with her for the 25th schedule interview. But now, my wife will have to do the interview alone as I have to return to canada for my work, can't afford to extend my stay due to the unprofessionality of the CHC.

interview is must for every applicant who is under family visa category??

no...most of the time it is for people who had been married before and divorced; common or conjugal relationship; combination of red flags such as short visit after marriage; relatives/parents/siblings not attending the marriage; quality assurance; and any other reason NDVO jerks think requires an interview

 

[waiting 2 exhale]

that doesnt make sense . After they did thorough bacjground check if they want to confirm they r calling for interview. If they are taking 4 months again after jntervuew what else they can do except analyzing facial expresions of the candidate whike interview

does anything that NDVO does makes sense e.g. asking for passport early in the process?

the background check is not done while you have an interview scheduled simply because they are not sure if you will get an approval to get the visa. Why waste money when you can see if they do not pass the interview. There thinking is so strange which is why they are taking so long to issue visa as in checking the background.

then why you ask me to pay so much money for processing fees? if not approved and you don't do background checks because of that, then why don't you refund my money? for god's sake, reject me right away if you see red flags or schedule my damn interview soon and get it over with...trend seems to be hey this application has red flags so why don't I put it away for 12 months and then think about scheduling an interview after 12 months..I could schedule it right away but I see red flags so why bother? in the meantime, my medicals and pcc expired and now when I redo it after NDVO interview that will add another 6 months to my processing time...

World's topmost fools working there. They asked for my passport in Jul 2013 and now second jul is about to come and they have not even acknowledged. Who does this?
I had cancelled my hong kong and Australia business trip due to unavailability of the passport, I thought if i ask for the passport then it will delay processing time. Who knew anyhow this is going to be delayed. 14months without meeting soul mate ... :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

That's so sad, I am sorry this is happening with you. They are being ridiculous lately. I heard they have even increased processing time from 12 months to 13!! another proof of how lazy & crazy they are ??? ???

Waiting 2 exhale - I am on the same track, medical expired, pcc expired, nothing heard yet. After doing MP enquiry I came to know that THEY WILL schedule interview but I don't know WHEN .... They are heartless people, they are. Please god never put NDVO people into our kind of situation otherwise they will start hating themselves.

Hey everyone. I recently found out through CPC-O that my file has been transferred to NDVO (from Islamabad) for further processing. I haven't received any letters from the ND office though, so I just want to ask this: what method of communication have you guys used to get in contact with NDVO? How quickly did you get a reply, if you used the e-mail route? Does phoning them work?

Don't except any response from then, they never reply so no timeline. All you have to do is wait. If your file been tranferred to NDVO then soon they will send you an email and will ask you to submit your passport (& medical, pcc if not submitted). This usually takes 10-15 days time after they receive the file for further processing.

Hello Friends,

Sorry for late reply here, I had a very coaster roller like journey and would like to share briefly so members here can take something from it.

So, i had received a call on 20th of Feb and was asked if i can fly to Canada by 5th of March, i had confirmed that i could, the lady had further confirmed my dob and said thanks and was going to disconnect the call but i quickly asked if they are sending my visa soon, she said i will come to know about it. like, really? you are asking me if i can fly in less than 2 weeks and then saying I will come to know about it? lol. So then my wait began, i had booked my ticket for 3rd March, where i would leave Chennai on 4th early hours and reach Toronto on 4th(a day before my visa expires). I did a MP enquiry on 24th and the MP office got back to us on 26th saying NDVO had written them on 25th (after getting their enquiry) that they have sent the passport today. So, 5 days remaining till i fly and i had no passport, it usually takes 7-10 days to get the passport so i was very worried that i am not getting my passport untill after 5th. I finally got my passport on 1st(Saturday) and i flew from my home city on Monday (3rd March). But, i had a lot to face still, my connecting flight was Air India to Chennai and then a flight to Toronto via Frankfurt. The Air India Flight got delayed few times and in the end flew after 6 hours of its original time :-\ (Never take a Air India flight, not worth the risk) hence, i missed my flight to Toronto, then i had to stay overnight at a hotel and figure out my flight for next day, so now i would fly on 5th and reach Toronto on 5th. So, next day I issued another ticket and reached airport 3 hours before the departure, when i went to check in my luggage where, i was told by airline personnel that as my visa was expiring on 5th so i may not be able to fly! I argued that its valid till 5th so it shouldn't be a problem, after that, a guy with walkie talkie took my passport and itinery with my landing papers and went to a room to confirm, after waiting for more than an hour he confirmed that i can fly, that was a great relief, i was panicking till i heared that! Next the same thing happened in Frankfurt when they had to check if i can fly but there it took 2 minutes to confirm the same.

So, i finally landed in Canada on 5th! The bottom line of the story is it is you who will realise and care what it really means for you to be with your loved one and the struggle you have gone through to make this happen, others are only doing their job and have no emotions attached to it. Please stay strong and in the end all will be good!

Good Luck to all my friends in this forum and wish you all a speedy visa.

Warmest Regards
DJ
