本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Dear Honorable,
We are a group of desperate applicants of family reunion under the new regulation. Writing to you to complain the family immigrant process in Hong Kong.
Several months ago, unfortunately, our applications were assigned to be processed by Consulate of Canada in Hong Kong.
The earliest applications we know was sent out in November 2002 and more than 8 months have passed and our request to be re-united with our wives, husbands has gone unanswered. The only response we get is to check online only to receive a message “in process”, we can not get anyone to quantify how long that is.
Most of us received the letters from Hong Kong 1-2 months after we sent out our applications and asking for “additional information about your family”, which it has been already INCLUDED in our application kits. The officers in Hong Kong are really working hard to make thing slower.
As a matter of fact, some of us did apply to the Canadian Embassy in Hong Kong for a visitors visa. Their applications were immediately rejected on the basis that the immigration for a ‘Family Reunion” would not take longer than 6 months. We have always been told it was “first priority” for a spouse. It is fact that in Beijing, the process only takes 3-4 months.
Canada requires qualified people to come here to share their expertise, We come to this country with our knowledge, hope and faith Most of us are taxpayer working in this country, most of us are highly educated engineers and have much to contribute to this country. Our family are very important to us and we feel we have waited long enough as you can well appreciate.
All we ask is the equal treatment as Beijing. More staff may be needed in Hong Kong Consulate or you need qualified staff to work in this area.
Thank you for your time and we await your response.
Sincerely yours,更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
