Hi, Yep, we know all about those forms :) We'll be filling those out any day now. As for the address, we're staying with my parents for a few months while we save up for a place of our own, so that address is all good for our mail. I do have a question though... when we arrive, I know he has to go f...

guess i should have been more patient..

If i had waited one more day... i wouldnt have had to post anything at all! We got his passport this morning by recorded delivery!

Thats it! It's all done. No more steps, no more forms, no more anything! All that's left is to get on that plane on August 15th! (booked the tickets this morning!)

Passport Request and visa issued??

Hi, We recieved a passport request for my partners passport on June 23, 2007 and sent his passport off the same day. It has now been four weeks and we have yet to hear anything back.

Family Class documentation

Will all the documentation that we send along with our forms be returned to us? (not the forms themselves, but the photos and other evidence documents that we have to send)
