    Would love to meet you too, U really seem to have such a kind and feeling spirit. Also, would be exciting to put a face to the name and reminisce about the good old CIC days. :D I actually live in Calgary AB. My husband is the one being sponsored by myself and will be joining me here. I hardly...

    If they told U its been sent for sure, is there a reason why U cant just send them the passport? Or are you required to do or send something else that might be detailed in that PPR? (Im assuming this PPR thing comes in the form of a letter) Just wondering? Clueless me.

    I saw this poem online, I found it quite uplifting at a time I was so low-spirited. I guess, it might just work both ways. Enjoy! THIS, TOO, SHALL PASS AWAY With some great sorrow, like a mighty river, Flows through your life with peace-destroying power, And dearest things are swept from...

    Thanks ddobro2! :D I found this poem the other day that I was feeling SO low and sort of depressed about pretty much everything, and theachrissy had posted an encouraging reply to me. I found this poem quite uplifting for my spirits at the time. However, if U r are at a pretty high "place" and...

    ***Random Comment*** I just finished "speaking" with a lady who was totally bawling about not being able to reset her account password. Its like the simplest automated telephone-banking process you ever came across and she was so upset I almost joined her in tears!! Talk about the simple...

    I think I would die if I had to wait that long! U know, the waiting times seemed to be getting worse from before June. I say that cos I was peeking in the April thread every now and then and I think they had shorter waiting times for their first stage approval. A friend of mine who applied...

    Amen to that, sthomas! Dair and ddobro2, just in case U were still wondering, I was able to confirm from the CIC Contact Centre, as well as the website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/faq.asp) that I needed to apply under the Access to Info Act (hence the $5) since I was...

    Thats one of the confusing bits I found with the CAIPS notes app process; I read somewhere that if U r applying for someone's details or under the Access to Info Act (or watever that law was called) as opposed to the Privacy Act, then U had to pay the $5. I did not want to take the chance of the...

    ORDERING CAIP NOTES.

    It took that long to get to U!? Really? OMG! That's is quite discouraging. I had better send our application off in the morning unfailingly cos we need it back b4 October 11. And I had thought that requesting to receive them via email would make it get to us faster. Just out of curiosity, were...
