Enquire the current status
I m july 2016 applicant
Background check in progress from May 2016..
No further updates
It seems like you contacted CPC-M instead of LVO. It says you should contact the Canadian visa office which has your file. So try sending a CSE directly to LVO here:
https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=London&_ga=2.163752191.1767690593.1508830505-1080254827.1505024920

Do you think this makes sense? Or did you get this reply from LVO?

I did, just yesterday in fact. Eligibility still not started. However, here is the rather interesting part. Our notes were generated on Oct 13, and on Oct 13 our file location changed from Put away to Case Analyst. Not sure what that means. But my guess is someone picked it up the same day our notes were generated. So eligibility as of right now should be underway?

I got our notes 28 days after re-submission of consent form. Wait a couple of weeks max and then send them an email requesting status update on your request.
So we re-sent the consent form on Sept. 26 and then a reminder email on Oct. 27, but we haven't gotten anything in response. I'm trying to be patient, especially cause I keep getting automated replies about there being possible delays because they're so busy these days. But it's hard being patient with both LVO and the ATIP officer at the same time!! I just want my notes so I can get an idea of where our application is at :( how do we check on the status of our notes, anyway? I just replied to the email I got from the ATIP officer asking for a new consent form.

I need some information from the seniors on this forum.

1) When the file transfer from LVO to Islamabad, is it for interview purposes only?
2) Does everyone gets a PFL or request for more document before an interview request ?
3) Those people who have there background started, remains in LVO or also get transferred to Islamabad ?
4) Where is the final decision taken in LVO or Islamabad ? And where is the visa stamp happens in Islamabad or LVO ?
5) Was there a case where interview was request without additional documents so far in Spousal Sponsorship ?

Thanks regards,

omg that is brutal. I can imagine. Give them about 3-5 days to respond to the email and then another week to send the notes. So sorry. Email is the only way to get an update on the status of your request.

Thanks regards,
1) I think yes.
2) No
3) Islamabad office is only conducting interview and stamping. BGC has nothing to do with it.
4) decision takes place in Lvo by your visa officer. Visa stamping takes place in Islamabad because you cannot send your passport abroad for stamping.
5) Yes as per spreadsheet.

That's ridiculous. You should see your MP and demand that they get your notes to you within three days.

hi, does anyone know what the maximum file size is that I can send to [email protected] ?
I know the online webform is 4MB but I was asked for some additional documents but they did not specify how to submit it. So I am going to mail it to them and email it. The file of the PDF after multiple rounds of reductions is 10MB. Wondering if their email will accept a file that size?

Friends one question if some one have two marriages. How will he include both wives in his application simultaneously?

Currently the immigration case of first wife is in process along with principal applicant, while applicant has made second marriage too and now wants to include the case of his second wife too in his current existing file. is it possible to include second wife's case too in your application? As I believe Canada does not allow to keep two wives simultaneously.

Lastly, if he is not allowed to include second wife and he wants to exclude his first wife and include his second wife in his current existing application, how possible and will be done? Thanks for expert suggestions.

Waiting for kind perfect replies.
