Thank you Bold9900,

So then hopefully if everything goes according yo schedule and no interview is required, then about 2-3 months I should be able to go back to picked up my wife and daughter then.

Hi Trung,

Just want to shared my timeline to you based last year for my wife.

- September 19th 2012. ECAS= In Process.
- October 8th 2012 requested from Singapore VO to re-medical, police clearance & submitting Passport.
- (Medical Received in Manila 11-5-2012) ECAS= Medical results have been received.
- November 13, 2012 My wife home address changed to my Canadian address and ECAS changed to "Decision Made"
- November 9, 2012 VISA & COPR Issued from Singapore Visa Office.
- November 25, 2012 Pick up VISA & COPR at IOM (Total of 17 days from issued to pick up).

I hope this will give some idea.

Good Luck!!

Send everything photocopy. Only original document you need to send them is the Police Certificate.

Question for those who brought their spouse back:

-Which country can you transit through without needing a visa? Hong Kong, Seoul, Narita, Beijing, Shanghai are my options

 

[Dragoon]

You do not require visas for those country since you would be transferring, not actually entering that country.

Dragoon is right. you don't need visa just transfer. You want to do some shopping and nice airport lounge, Hong Kong & Narita.

For those who interviewed in November, how did your interviews go? When I was there, 2 ladies appeared to be rejected (sad face/close to tears). For some reason they interviewed me first and my wife second. Then I was asked to come in a 3rd time. My interview was like 45 mins and my wife was 20-30 mins. What the heck. She said we had a few discrepancies and that it would take 5-6 weeks for a decision.

My wife and I reviewed the questions and for the most part we answered very similarly. Did miss some gifts when asked what gift I got our daughter, but my wife remembered I got a watch the 1st time. She forgot about the video games. The interview made you feel very rushed, and after 3 years you cannot remember every single detail instantly.

Hi Dragoon,

if everything went well this week or next week max (2 weeks after interview date) you should get an email about re-medical.

The status will only change to "In Process" once they received the medical results. Until then, it will still show "Application Received".

Finger cross that you recieved this email

Thanks! Just booked our tickets, 6 weeks from now. Transiting through ICN, have already taken her to HKG and I find the NRT airport boring relatively. ;D
