Subject: London has lost documents of dependant son
  I applied in February 2005 as an inland applicant (spousal) with my son being a dependant but residing in England. My son had his medical done in May 2007 and both that and the Police check was received by London in June 2007. So far it has taken almost 3 years since we received sponsorship approval.

I have been calling CIC every 2 weeks (on their advice) to get updates, they have been calling London every 2 weeks to get updates but all they are being told is that it is "in process" and the file is still open. Consequently, they advised me to contact the Minister of Immigration as they told me that this has taken far longer than normal! I did this last week but have not received a response.

My son received a letter from London CIC this morning informing him that they have LOST his police clearance certificate and that as it is now 14 months since his medical they require him to have both the police certificate and the medical redone. Not only that, they are demanding that he fill in all the application forms again and suppyly 8 passport photo´s together with copies of proof of relationship with the sponsor, birth certificate etc. They have asked him to pay $500 for it to be processed. They have issued him with a client ID that is different to mine.

They have stated that if they do not receive the information within 60 days they will close his file. They have also stated that once the information is received it will be at least 6 months before anything is processed.

Their incompetance caused the medical to expire! To say I am frustrated is an understatement.

My question is, can his file be transferred to Canada so that he can come here instead of waiting in England? If it can be, will he be able to return to England temporarily if necessary (he has an apartment there which he does not want to give up until we receive Landed Status) without jeapardising our application?

Thanks for any advice..
