On FR Issue -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Hong-Lin Yang I just got a letter from the International Student Advisor in Carleton U. about the family reunification of the Chinese stu- dents. It may be useful to some of our country fellows. I copied it as follows: TO: All Chinese students with spouses and children in China We received today the following information from the Canadian Bureau for International Education. This is in regards to the family reunification policy of Canada Immigration. Below you will find the information which has been copied directly from the CBIE Information Package #6: "Family reunification is the first priority of the Canadian Immigration Program at missions abroad. The Canadian Embassy in Beijing is prepared to facilitate the admission of spouses and children of Chinese citizens who have been given approval in principal for PR in Canada. It is not necessary to wait until PR status is obtained here in Canada. What is necessary for the Chinese citizens in Canada to do is to make a request for the family reunification at the same Canadian Immigration Center (CIC) which is handling his/her applicaiton. The CIC will then inform the Canadian Embassy in Beijing. Any request made directly to the Canadian Embassy in Beijing won't be acted upon and will be returned to the CIC of the applicant in Canada."
