I thought I read it costs 3000-5000 on Via?
But this was 4 years ago and I suspect was they were getting rid or last minute my grandma has a life time pass because my grandpa worked for via as a ticket agent so they get reduce rates for things like that

Again, noise. NF is way too noisy for me. Of the two (NF NY v NF ON), I would pick the ON side every day of the week and twice on weekend days.
Absolutely!!


Georgian Bay: We did our salmon run from Owen Sound. When we got there at 6am -- the bay was dead silent. Water was crystal clear and still as glass. It captivated my wife.

There is a bay cruiser that does operate there... http://www.ontarioferries.com/en/ms-chi-cheemaun-en/ we actually were talking last night about taking the ferry for a zip on the dinner cruise and/or the stargazing trip...

One thing I'm learning thru this process is that its possible to be pissed off and really happy at the same time! OMG...
  • I managed to get thru and speak to a representative about the notice they put on my account on June 3rd saying they needed additional documentation...but I never got a paper letter or email.
  • I am pissed because it turns out they sent it to my PAID REPRESENTATIVE but he claims he never got it. F*@#*@
  • I am okay because the request is simple: need to provide evidence of co-habitation...that we do indeed live together
  • I am happy because they've extended my medical exam's expiration date to April 2018!
  • Also happy because a decision has been made on my sponsor.
  • Hopeful I'm nearing the end of all this. :)

The only good news today (for now) is that I passed my medical and that is updated in MyCIC. In ECAS there is no note that my medical is received lol. I'm ready for more good news today :)
That's good! What's your timeline and location again? I just got off the phone to a CIC agent that said it's too soon for them to see anything about my medical. It's been 9 days since I've done then and it could take up to 3 months so if I don't hear anything, call back in a month LOL. I don't want to be rude but do these people know anything?

Called CIC and went through the citizenship prompts. Was told there was a 25 minute wait in queue. 32 minutes later I get a representative that states he cannot help me, I have entered the wrong department and need to be transferred. Back on hold again, 12 minutes later I get a representative in the immigration department on the phone. She verifies all my information and places me back on hold to check my case. Then she comes back with the saddest news ever....Eligibility is still processing (this has been processing since July 25, 2016) and tells me that inland this takes a while. I was advised by a different representative in the past that the sponsorship eligibility part is typically the fastest and he was unsure why that part was taking so long. Only to find out that is still what is being processed almost a year later. She stated that my action is required on my police checks and that is what they are needing...(I am so confused, I turned in my FBI paperwork when I mailed in my application in July last year, it was initially sent with application- only thing I didn't do was the medical check beforehand.) She says oh, well disregard that action required then. No medical checks have been requested yet, they are still at stage 1. They were just collecting information for stage 2 but if it was sent in then nevermind. After you get first approval then we will request the second part of stage 2 the medical check and send you forms. So, there is a glitch in the system because automated system says we need med checks, and myCIC only says action required (no messages or notes).

I am frustrated. Why is the sponsorship eligibility taking so long? Have they even started on the background things? Do they actually need something from me and how do I know if I am constantly getting different information every time I talk to a IRCC representative? I could really use some good news.....
I honestly feel like they don't know anything which is why the GCMS notes are so important to request so you can see for yourself what is going on. If I didn't notice the spelling errors in our names who knows where my application would've been now. yet that took months to realize after we weren't able to link the applications online.

I applied on April 21 2016, Calgary, AB. I did my medical on June 02 and today was updated to passed....So for me was 10 days. I know it is frustrating. The worst part for me was that I didnt see on ECAS that is even received and I still dont see it lol. I dont really care now, as long as I passed exam :D

Hey everyone,

I've been lurking the forum some time now and today I've some good news to share. Yesterday, we've received SA and this morning ECAS is showing "DECISION MADE" on both Sponsor & PR side.

Inland application, it was received on April 28, 2016. - Mississauga
Congrats! Superb news. I'm jealous as well lol
