Hi to everyone,
Finally I received today the Study permit! I can finally be happy and have the good mood to write here again.
It was a really hard work, I reasume what's happened in these weeks.
On 12 of June I received the news that my son study permit that i asked online was refused. I was astonished, but after reading the letter I understand that I made a great error: I sent them only the page 1 of the Custodianship Declaration (IMM5621), it was completed with the name and the sign of the person that has to look over my son during his stay and there was also the sign and stam of a Notary. But it was not enough! I didn't understand that before, but it is necessary also the page 2 with the sign of my wife and me and the sign and stamp of an Italian Notary.
Anyway being afraid to wrong something, I preferred to prepare all documents and sent them to VSF office to present a card declaration. I had to pay again the fee of 150 CAN and send all documents by courier to Rome office. After my first shipping they controlled the documentation but they see that I didn't put the pictures. In the facts in the document checklist 5483 you can see at the end of the p. 1: Note: if you are required to provide biometric fingerprints and photo you are not required to include paper photos with your application.
Anyway on Friday 21th of June my paper application was registered. Today after less than 2 weeks I received the study permit and this nightmare is finally finished.
It is umbelievable that for an Italian schoolboy yet accepted by the School and by the Official family homestay, with the original notarized Custodianship Declaration, with an Italian Passport with finger and pictures, we were forced to make all this burocracy preparing documents and sending my son to Rome for Biometrics. We have been treated as refugee.
