Hey Guys!. I have pretty much completed our inland spousal sponsorship application.
I need someone to review it before I sent it to CIC.
Can anyone suggest me a good, reliable and cheap consultant who can just review my file and tell me to make any changes if needed.
I like in Mississauga and work in DT Toronto so anyone nearby. Please
Thanks

do you consider a Chinese consultant?

On the safer side i also paid OWP fee: 155 CAD and submitted the receipt by Web Form with the following explaination letter:


Dear Officer,

My name is XXXXXX. I am in Canada on Visitor Visa and married to a Canadian Citizen.


My husband has applied for my sponsorship under Spouse or Common Law Partner in Canada Class which includes my applications for Permanent Residence and Open work permit in one package and received by CPC-Mississauga, P.O Box 5040, Station B, Mississauga, Ontario, L5A 3A4 on August 8, 2018.


While paying application fee for open work permit, I paid only for Open work permit holder (100 CAD) but forgot to pay Work permit fee (155 CAD).


I am afraid that due to insufficient funds my application might be returned so I am paying Work permit fee (155 CAD) now.


Payment receipt is attached with this letter.


I will appreciate if you can attach this fee receipt with my application for open work permit.


Thank you for your understanding.


You can reach me on cell: XXXXX or email: XXXXXX


Yours Sincerely,


XXXXXXX


First Name: XXXX

Last Name: XXXXX

Nationality: XXXXX

Indian Passport No: XXXXXX


Address: XXXXX


Hopefully it works.

Did you get any status update on your cic?

The account was updated to read 'Your action is required'.

Then when I click on my application I see the following message:

Review of medical results: We have requested a medical exam. Check your messages below for details

And in my messages, I received a copy of the IMM1017E form.

Medical booked for September 12, good luck to everyone that is waiting, I will keep posting updates when I get them.

$255 is the correct fee.

I hope my owp app doesn't get returned. On question 1, what are you applying for? I selected work permit for new employer and restoration of status as a worker. Also paid a total fee of 355 instead of 255. Fingers crossed, I'm kinda upset.

Hello Everyone,
I am a March 6th applicant and got my medical exam request today!
I first received an email from CIC that I have an update for my permanent residency application.
When I checked online CIC, there was my medical exam request plus a form attached to take with me to the MD for my exam.
I also saw on my application that my Background check was started as well today. So, two big updates in my account!

I saw that a March 5th applicant also posted that they got medical request today as well. So, we all seem to be moving along in the timeline quite well!

Same thing here, March 6th applicant, medical request! I understand out of the letter that you can only choose from the Panel Physicians IRCC has selected..... I'm living in Nelson and the closest one is about 4 hour drive from me... That sucks

 

[Moek90]

Does anyone know what the medical examination stands for? I remember hearing someone saying that it involves chest xrays, etc., but I just made an appointment in Vancouver with Dr. Desmond P Dwyer, and the whole thing will cost me $290,-. That seems to be a little low, if they're going to make photos as well..... But looking on my IMM 1017E form, it doesn't' state anything about xrays.... Can someone offer me some help??

Sorry to here about long distance drive. Mine is about 1.5 hour drive.
Fingers crossed, we all do well and pass exam!

Hi, when I scheduled my medical exam appointment just a few minutes ago, it stated that all parts of medical are completed onsite at the clinic: physical exam, Chest X Ray, and blood labs; so I believe there is an X-ray to be completed as well.

Okay thanks! Was your amount similar to mine or way more?
