Protocol of the Family Class
Hello, Can you guys let me know what the protocol of getting the family class visa is? I have lots of questions so if you can answer any of the following it would be very helpful.

What happens after submitting the application to Mississauga?

What is established in Mississauga?

Is the validity of the relationship established in Mississauga or is that part of the potential interview?

Do we get a letter when the application is transfered from Mississauga to the visa office? (in my case Buffalo)

Do I (the sponsored) get a letter from them or does all correspondence go to my sponsor?

Will my partner have to come to the visa office in Buffalo (where my application will be processed) or does he do his interview seperately in Canada somewhere? Do we both get interviewed or just one of us? which one?

What type of things do they ask at the interview? (spouse category)

Is the visa issued at the interview?

Do they request the passport to be sent by mail or can I present it in person and collect my visa at that point?

I know that this seems like there are alot of questions but all of this seems so hidden and secretive. I mean all the CIC website says is what you need to do to fill out the application and then the estimated wait times so any additional help would be well appreciated.

Thanks,

REMY
