Unfortunatley, you may never receive AOR from your embassy... some do, and some don't. It sucks but that's the way it is. I haven't received one from mine, but others that applied in October did, it is frusterating, but nothing I can do. It seems it might depend on the IO that handles your file.... if they feel like updating that information or not....
 
A quick congrats to all the October applicants !! I'm traveling in Africa with my husband and we are 5 months into our wait for spousal visa ... I hope the wait time will be under one year... think of us!!

ouhhh i really do need that letter as AOR,,,it's really frusterating,,,,so you didn't receive anything too from your visa office?that's really sucks
 
Please help guys!!!

I just realized on my APPENDIX A SCHEDULE A BACKGROUND/DECLARATION form question 6d where it says have you been refused a visa to Canada before, I answer NO by mistake because I was refused a visitors visa once before. Is there any way I can correct this? I am afraid if I don't correct it they might refuse me the visa thinking I was not honest. I am so depressed now please give me advice.

no my wife isn't from quebec and we didn't received any approval letter yet,but they said that my wife has been approved as sponsor,and they said they have sent a letter but we didn't get anything
 
I used to have someone like a common law partner in the country where I'm living now, but we never stayed together or have any serious relationship. When the form as me if I have ever had a common law partner i write NO. Can this lead to refusal of my visa?

Please help guys.
 
Does the "common law relationship" status exists in your home country? if so were you in a common law relationship according to the definition in that country? My point is that it is like marriage, the validity depends on the laws of the country where it is performed.
So if your home country recognized "common law relationships" and according to the laws of your country (not those of Canada) you were in such relationship, I would write it down. If you had just a partner for a year and NO laws in your country made it an official marriage-like relationship, I would not mention it. Most people had bf/gf in the past.

Hope it helps..?
