Thread for Acrra Ghana applicants

You can answer no and put the dates which you have visited him

The only time i would say I " visited during the relationship" was when I went home to get married and spent like 2 weeks before coming back to Canada. Does that qualify as a " visit during the relationship"?

Need guidance on how to answer one of the questions on the Sponsor form:

Background: I was single when I came to Canada as a Permanent resident last year. Then I went to Nigeria to marry my fiance. My fiance and I never lived together during the courtship but lived in the same city. Then I came to Canada as a PR, and travelled back to Nigeria to get married.

I need advice on how to answer this question as contained in the Sponsorship questionnnaire.

" If you are not living together, have you visited each other during the relationship?"

@olddelmary if there's a field to explain, then I'd say "no" and then explain that you lived in the same city during courtship so your visited each other [insert frequency here], but for [your own reasons here] you haven't visited each other in the year that you got PR.

If there's no field for explanation, then I'd put "yes." Remember you are always allowed to submit additional support details. So if you think there's room for them to doubt your relationship, attach a document and refer to the form number and question number and provide whatever explanantion you feel is necessary there.

for example, for the question of whether my hubby and i exchanged gifts on our first meeting. i put "no" and in my note explained that when we first met, it wasn't a romantic encounter so no gifts were exchanged, but when we started courting we exchanged gifts such as xyz.

My background check have been showing in process since on Friday. That's the only change on my account.

@RoamingSpirit and @jellyfish_smile my fields are still all the same since 3 weeks ago. background check still says "Not applicable."

GUYS I THINK I HAVE BEEN REFUSED...... I GOT THE DISPATCHED MAIL, BUT HAD THE CALL TODAY TO COME IN FOR MY PASS , BUT WITH NO MEDICAL TEXT...

Can you explain better.... what is your timeline? Why do you think you were refused?

 

[waitingInTO]

Guys I got the dispatched mail but I received a call from the vac office saying I must come in for my passport but I havnt received any medicals mail

@theophi_lus I guess congratulations are in order ? Please provide more details of your timeline so that we know whether you are asking for help or whether the lack of medical is significant

I am lost I don't know what that means I really need clarification bro

that's not always the case. If your medical hasn't expired, you won't get asked to do it. Again, we can help you assess what's going on unless you provide your timeline and details.

click under my name on the left. send us, when you applied, what they've asked for, when they started the application etc. whether you've done medical before and when you did it. send those details and then we can see if we can try and piece things together. how could you passport be with them and then get refused?

I mean I applied via paper in Ghana for a study permit and its kinda obvious need a medical test, but I haven't received any e mail concerning the medicals, what's really wrong

@jellyfish_smile, what @Cutie101 said is correct. I find that a couple of the forms for immigration are protected from "preview mode" in a browser (imm0008 being one of them). One must download and saveit locally first then open it up in Adobe (not online) in order to fill it out or update it.

Since you have a version you already used, find it and only update the parts that have changed if need be (e.g. new address or new child, height change or whatever) and re-validate to get a new barcode, then submit. Also, inform Accra what changes you made in your email/note back to them.

If nothing has changed since you submitted it, send the original in with a a note stating that none of the info has changed and everything is up-to-date. I hope this helps

Nothing has actually changed since we submitted. But the initial application we submitted was printed and hand fill. In fact we did nothing on computer.

" If you are not living together, have you visited each other during the relationship?"

Did you start dating before you left for Canada? If yes, I would answer yes and explain that you lived in the same city for the majority of your relationship with frequent visitations. If you're relationship started after you moved, then I would suggest "No".
Reason is I see that the new application forms are abridged and these yes or no questions can be easily not work in your favour. Plus the question is directed and the entirety of your relationship not just the part after you moved.
