All sounds pretty normal. Ap is a catch all phrase they use for everything. They could be waiting on something to get back from the UK or anything at all. THat 10 ban is probably what they are double checking on. Hopefully the wait is not to long.

Montreal does not move fast but with the medical just recently making it to them. I would email if you don't hear back by the end of the week. All visas go though 221G it's just some get out faster. With your case it is the medical that was the hold up. Completely normal, fingers crossed they don't drag it out for 6 weeks.

Should be no issues even after this long. The second marriage was not legal. Proof of that would be your first marriage certificate. Time frame I have no idea, call a few different lawyers and ask them their thoughts. Get the ball rolling. If it does take too long, and just before time runs out. Send in both marriage certificates showing it's the two of you on both and then write a letter explaining that you did not realize the first marriage was recognized in the US. That is why you two got married again. Then pray they accept that reasoning. If not your annulment will still be processing and you can refile if they deny it.

Annul the second marriage the one in Texas in 2009. It was not a legal marriage as you were already married in Indonesia.

~~Moved to the PI forum, from General Immigration - as the topic of custody is unique for this country.~~ I would try this way first. I remember years ago seeing other members with similar situation printing out the laws regarding single mothers with sole custody. They used that to send it in with the passport paperwork. I think one member took it one step further and had a lawyer in the US with PI knowledge right up a letter with the law to send in. It seem to work for those that I remember. I did have to go the route for the youngest of mine. I wrote up a detail letter of his how I haven't had any contact since date. Told that I tried his mother's phone and never got an answer. She won't answer long distance numbers. Talk to sister in law and she had no clue where he was. She hasn't seen or heard from him in years. That I looked him up on FB and could not find any trace on FB. How I tried his best friend and he had not heard from him in a long time either. I explained in my application that I doubt they would lie about his location but it was totally possible. That the last place he lived that I knew about was 4 years prior to the application. That he was only renting a room there so he did not have his own phone number so it was possible that message I left on the machine never reached him or were ignored. Also possible he no longer lived there. So basically I wrote up everything I could think about that I tried to find him. I was able to get the passport after that with no extra calls/letters.

That's just crazy.

Did they give you any contact information to get in touch with them? Do you happen to have a copy of the application sent?

It is not a problem with the maiden name on her ID for a little while. It takes time to change things over. But if she does indeed want to use her married name then yes fill out all forms with the married name. It took me more then a year to change all my ID. Heck I never did change my SIN card in Canada Similar to SSN in the USA for my first marriage. It stayed in my maiden name the entire 15 yrs I was married. Then divorced and remarried it is still in my maiden name. It really is not a big deal. I've never had any issues with it staying in my maiden name with all my other ID in married names.

If she is going to change her name go ahead and start using that name now. She can start changing her other ID when she gets a chance. Better sooner then later. Not all marriage certificates list the new married name. but you can indeed still change it.
