When I waited for results from my husbands interview and also after we appealed his case we waited and waited for a response every time we had a long wait I contacted my local MP and they were able to find out about my case really fast. It wasn't always what I wanted to hear but I really...

Thanks confusednscared. I'm trying to be calm really I am LOL. Oh and it's great to hear from you. You really do have such a calming way of saying things :) I need to phone my Mom tonight and find out exactly what's going on. Gather as much as I can before heading home. It's hard enough just...

I'm freaking right out. I just got a message from my brother on facebook telling me that my Mother got a letter for me about my appeal date. MARCH 8. They told me that I needed to mail my additional evidence in two weeks before my appeal hearing. I'm pretty sure that's too late now. A few weeks...

Thank you Bangkokcanuck and missmini for your encouraging words. Some days are harder than others but I am very grateful to be with my husband so I don't want to complain too much because I am happy. My family have a hard time understanding why it has taken so long. People seem to think its easy...

Well been living here in Istanbul with my husband since August of 2010. Sent my appeals papers right before I moved here and they only just accepted my papers January 20th of 2011. I contacted my local MP in the hopes that the length of time it would take would be 10 months from the time I...

I received a stack of papers well rather my Mother did. As per their request they wanted my address here in Turkey but still posted everything to my Moms house. I'm assuming they send you the CAIP notes after your spouse is refused Permanent Residence Status. They are being courriered to me now...

Well I'm still living here in Istanbul. At the end of February it will be 6 months. I filed for my appeal after my husband was refused Permanent Residence Status near the end of August. There was a request for my address here after that I heard nothing. So after e-mailing them and phoning and...

I'm at the beginning of the appeal process now. I faxed the request to appeal their decisıon near the end of August and haven't heard anything from them so far. I'm staying in Turkey for now. I imagine I will hear something soon.

Yes. This is what he wants. I'm so angry about everything. The long wait. If it wasn't for that MP contacting them they might not have ever mailed the letter. It was sent on August 3rd, and Murat got the letter today. So it must have been mailed Priority to get there that fast. The thing that...

We have so much evidence of talking and getting to know each other for three years. I thought it was only two but last night we were talking about the upcoming Ramadan and we realized that it was three years ago when he was fasting, and how we talked about what it meant to him. We slowly over...

Well he finally received the letter, sent on August 3rd from the Canadian Embassy in Ankara,Turkey. They did not believe our marriage was genuine. They believe he was only trying to gain entry into Canada and he has no intention of staying with me. She did not think he knew me well enough to...

Decision Made and it's been over a month!!!!!!! They contacted me on the 15th, after I e-mailed them and told me we would be receiving a letter soon. I've contacted my local MP to find out what could be the holdup. I don't know what is their Decision. Up to this point they've been very timely...

I'm so sorry canadianwoman. This is so wrong. I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I can't even imagine how devastated you and your husband must feel now. This is so unfair. But now you two need each other even more. Please be strong for each other. I'm sending all my prayers to you and...

Thanks Confusednscared. This is definitely not the way I saw things going on July 1st. We're both extremely emotional about this waiting. Does this seem unusual to be waiting this long? Any opinions at all from anyone? I think I've contacted them enough but maybe I should try to phone them. All...

Well I'm on my way to work. Be back later tonight. I can only hope I'll get a phone call later tonight from my husband saying he got the letter. They'll send me a letter too, right? If it's a refusal? Have a good day everyone.

How long do you think we should wait before getting our letter? Decision made July 1st. We're going crazy. I e-mailed them and they e-mailed me back July 15, after I suggested that it might it might have got lost in the mail. Maybe a tracking number so we could verify it. But they reassured me...

Hi queen latifah. No we're still waiting yet. I e-mailed them three times at the canadian Embassy in Turkey, they actually replied to my e-mail and told me a letter would be arriving shortly. We're still worried, it has been since July 1st since Decision Made. He had his interview already as you...

Oh it is so hard waiting. I can completely relate to screaming AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH! The decision was made on July 1st and the letter is supposedly in the mail. Well...it's the 12th now and still no word. Everyday people ask me when is your husband coming? Have you heard word? I have...

I'm so sorry for what you and your husband had to go through. It sounds terrible. I can only imagine how worried and frustrated you are. It sounds like you two did your best under very stressful circumstances and you were treated very unfairly. Wow I admire what you and your husband did to get...

I'm hoping today is the day we hear news. How long does it take a letter to get from Ankara to Istanbul? Their mail even runs on Saturday. :(
