For satishjha73 Hi Satish I moved from india to US in April 2001. Since then I have been living here. Yes I moved lot of places in US. But I did not mention every place in my application. May be that is why it took too much time. I was a gazetted officer in central government(India) and my...

Hi Vjy I just want to make sure by asking you again. Did you send the self address envelop with address different than the mailing address which you mentioned in application. Do we need to inform CIC about it. I do not want to make at this stage. Thanks Suraj

To my understanding it means that anyone who is not PR(like h1-b visa holder ) cannot apply for canadian immigration from 1st May onward.GC holders are PR in US. suraj

Don't expect any confirmation letter. CIC does not send any confirmation letter. Just wait for 1-2 months. You are quite close in getting the letter for passport request. suraj

Actually my background checking is being going on and if I believe what experts say, is that background cheking always takes place once interview/medical is cleared. In the letter which I received from visa officer in Mar 2003, it was clearly mentioned that the application which I had submitted...

Hi Guys, I had applied from Buffalo in Sep 2001. My interview was waived and did medical in Sep 2002. Then I received a letter from CIC Buffalo on 10th March 2003 to submitt all up-to-date information in new forms. So, it is not that only those who have applied after Jan 2002 are getting new...
