Thread for Acrra Ghana applicants

[Pake]

Pake, I pray you are right. I can't check my email without my heart skipping a beat. It's been two and a half years of being away from my husband. I'm so ready to start our lives again. Thinking of you all, sending positive vibes all around. <3 There are so many stories of strength and resilence in this house. I pray they all end in happiness.

A big Amen to that

I dont know if this helps anyone, i hope it gives a little hope for June 2016 applicants if I wasnt the only one left out ..lol. So I got PPR yesterday finally. I quickly sent it via DHL same day to Ghana. Does anyone know how long it takes on the average for them to issue the visa and send back? I'm to catch a flight out of town next week but this came up had to send my passport in asap. Looking to know how long to extend my original travel tickets for.

I hope and pray they start coming through for everyone waiting here as well. The wait is long and frustrating! Only those involved can understand how horrible it is.

Hi there! Congratulations! That's wonderful news! I'm not sure how long it will take to get your passport back, it seems it varies, I would definitely try and post pone your travels for a month anyways, just in case. But if you're able to post pone and then post pone again, you could make it for earlier.

Could you also share your timeline? Like when you applied and got SA and if you had to send any other documents in and when? Thank you.

Thanks to everyone here for your advice me and my husband really appreciate and to all waiting you will get a positive email soon... so after we sent the passport to ottawa on Monday last week we got it back yesterday which is on Thursday and my husband landed today at the peace bridge at niagara. And also to anyone looking to land at peace bridge they don't do it from Friday to Monday anymore only on Tuesday till Thursday now due to the work load they get, we had to plead with them and considering the distance we drove they allowed my husband complete it PR process which was less then 10 minutes. Thanks to everyone becos, pake,tender, peg and all i can't mention. Thank you

Wow congrats .
I'm so happy for u
I pray I will be next for testimony

I called cic and they told me my husband should send Ghana an email to let them know he doesn't live in Nigeria so maybe they can send his application to Canada visa office in united state and they will continue the process there !
So my husband will send the email on Monday

Yea but my sponsor was never married. Though he was in a common law with his ex girlfriend and they were never married.. Pls I need advise.

Your sponsor should also write a letter detailing the history of the relationship with the ex, how and when it ended

Well said. Happy Canada Day everyone, if you can, listen to Oh Canada by Exco Levi. Reminds me of being home in Ghana, the reggae sound, and makes me hopeful to have my husband call Canada home away from home someday soon. May the month of Canada's birth be our month of good news.

@GENEGENE, did yours get sent to the US too? Mine would have to be sent to South Africa. I wonder if this will work for me?

 

[tender]

Thanks dear. Yea he aldo notarised the letter from commissional of oath and also provided all his taxes before his relationship with his ex showing he was single and never been married . Well i think the learning point here now is nobody should include common law relationship on their application to avoid this kind of question from Cic unless if u legalised ur relationship . That was our issue, he wrote he lived with his ex girlfriend for 2yrs as common law partner and now theyre asking if previously married.
