Canadian Soc anyone?

P's and Q's in order? What do you mean by that?

And yes I have booked the flight! So I hope everything goes smoothly

It's just a saying meaning as long as you've double-checked that everything has been sent properly, etc. it should be fine.

Cheers punctuation!



Punctuation's right, it's just a saying. Sorry for the confusion.

You'll be fine!

I have not submitted the visa application yet as I dont have my CAS# from Cranfield University.

If your offer has been unconditional for a while, you might want to contact Cranfield about you CAS#. If you start school in September, you only have 2 weeks left. You can gather all your necessary documents now, and fill out the application within a day of getting your CAS. But from there it could be a few days to get an appointment and two or more weeks for the visa to be issued and in your hands. (mine took three weeks from the date I submitted it at the office)

My offer has been unconditional for 2 weeks now, and they just contacted me saying I should get the CAS# soon.
Ill be flying september 25th, so I have time but dont want the visa to cut it so close!

Does anyone know a cheap service for door-door shipping? Fedex grounds, UPS and some other shipping companies are quationg about $300-500 for 2 big suitcases. In that case it seems better to pay excess baggage on my flight

Just for your reference, my visa took a total of 3 weeks from the date I submitted it at the office, and four weeks if you count from the date I submitted the online application. The visa processing times on the ukba website are not relevant since they are reflective of claims made in June, when there are a lot less applications.

WHOA!! A month, wow If Cranfield takes its sweet ass time with my CAS# I might not be able to get the visa in time for my flight!

Did you guys bother sending in any additional documents? I figured since we're all Canadian there's really no need.

As low risk applicants you are not required to provide all documents. But it is always safe to provide everything especially if your course start date is coming up. If the visa office requests for more information you have to send it to New York and your application is waiting in a queue again. If it's not too much work it's better to be safe right? After all the studying and test taking it doesn't seem like much work.

I just wasn't sure if the extra documents would slow my case down any. I'll make sure to fill out my Appendix accordingly, and include the documents.

Thanks.

I know someone who applied last year and included all the documents. she got her visa issued within the week.

But Canada is listed as a low-risk country. Surely the fact that documents were included didn't help her case especially?

It might not have, but it couldn't have slowed it down significantly or at all. It was just a case for reference.

I moved out from Canada (Ottawa) when I was 11 - I'm 19 now, I miss it so much! My accent is the most messed up thing ever!

I miss Poutine and singing the national anthem every morning and how it had REAL seasons hehe.. Just little things you don't realize are important to you until they're gone
