Montreal Folks!

I started this thread the day I formally joined this forum. The date was 08/01. Now today is 01/08 ....

And finally I get to announce that I have just received PPR in my account. It has been a long journey and to be honest not an easy one. At this point I have feeling of relief more than happiness. But all in all I'm happy that the wait has ended.

When I came to know my Visa office is Montreal I created account to this forum and posted on June thread. I remember @pathwaytofreedom to was the first one to say that her visa office is Montreal too. We didn't know much about this VO. There was not much information. Then we found two more people in @Rijo02 and @smcan2014 and I created this thread the same day.

From then on my sole focus was to go and find as many people from Montreal as possible. I'm a person who believes in data and needs to see information to feel okay. I never imagined this thread will grow so much. We are on 179th page today.

In the end, thanks to each and everyone of you who have come here and participated. It would have been a much arduous journey than it already was all alone. Thanks to everyone who have sent me PMs in past to keep me going.

January definitely has been the most action we have seen in Montreal. And I can say we have seen more action in last 3/4 days than whole of December.

My best wishes with each and everyone who is waiting. I know how hard the wait is and fact is it won't get any easier if I say be positive and all. So I will spare you all that wisdom as I never personally believed in all that.

Everyone's coping mechanism is different and for me it was this forum. Many people have thanked me here for my help but really my presence here helped me more than possible I have helped anyone. So, pick your coping mechanism and try to hold on. I'm here for anyone who needs my help and goes without saying I'm always here to help.

Once again Thank You All!

Finaalllly!!!!! #Dancing. I am so excited that this day has finally come for you Cansha. You have been extremely resourceful, helpful and kind. Some days I think about you and silently pray that you receive PPR especially at the time I knew the other "founders" of the group had received. Thank you for encouraging me. You were the very first reason I kept returning to this thread because there was always something to learn about the process. It has also helped me cope with my own anxieties. Thank you for your encouragement during the petition period. I jope that your transition is smooth and that you find peace and happiness in Canada.
I also hope and pray that as you have received yours, myself and others on this thread will return to share the good news of our receipt of PPR.

Thanks @Adeife23 for your kind words. I'm not that worried about transition as yet. Plus I think moving from US to Canada should be relatively easy compared to people trying to move from other parts of the world. But we will see.

I hope no one else from upcoming AORs has to wait as much I had to wait. It is not easy. And to everyone from April to June pending I pray Montreal processes their application very very soon.

AOR Received.
15-07-2020
Joining the Montreal visa office club. July 12, 2018 AOR, still in "IP1." Will hit the 6-month mark this weekend. FSW-O, family of 3 from US.

Got our first set of GCMS notes today that show eligibility review required and file is with Montreal. Medicals passed, security and criminality not started, info sharing complete (whatever that means). Eligibility review due to a 14-year-old DUI of my wife's that was dismissed in court (note: two glasses of wine at dinner will do it....). Crossing our fingers given the new DUI rules that might require a tedious, uncertain, and drawn-out rehabilitation process.

It sounds like they're making their way though the June files? Is that right? Anyone watching this kind of thing care to estimate how someone in our situation should expect to wait for final answer?

Congrats to everyone that has started to receive PPR's recently. Hoping to join that club sooner rather than later too.
