I hope so. Being stuck in the blue channel for two weeks isn't fun, lol.

Congratulations for your PER. It's good to know that at least someone at CIO is working. Maybe our files got assigend to someone who IS on vacation?

Right now people who submitted their applications in the beginning of September are receiving their AORs. So it should be your turn in a matter of a few weeks. Once you have your AOR, the file will be transferred to your visa ofice. At that point you will get the chance to make all the...

Hey everyone, I'd like to wish you all Happy Holidays. And Katie, that must be a great relief for you to finally get such good news. Congratulations. ;D

Is there no way to request the PCC by mail? You could request one when you travel. At least that way you will have a more recent version. You might also verify with your local Police if at a later point someone could pick the PCC up for you with a signed power of attorny. I was able to receive...

You're welcome. Good luck with your application!

Hi Mari, I remember that I had sent to Buffalo a whole bunch of questions before I even applied, to make sure my docs were correct. They gave me the same answer. I assume, you will be able to get a better answer, once your file has received the PER and is being transferred to Buffalo.

I have a question: I have been in the United States as a student for the last 6 years or so. I finished my studies and my student visa will expire in a few months. With an extension to a tourist visa (that would give me 'til August 2011), do you guys think this will give me enough time to...

Canaday, congratulations from me too. And that Wakawaka comic made my day. I am sitting here at work trying not to lough out loud. :P :P :P

Right before Christmas? I have nothing to complain on that idea, lol. We would like some Christmas-PERsents for everyone, please.

This really starts to look as though the CIO started its winter break.... Hopefully there will be at least a few people sending PERs for the next couple of days... ::).

Yes, I grew up in Germany, but have lived for the last 6 years in the United States. Now it's time to move on, lol.

Hey Bjay, welcome to the forum. Only 2 or 3 people have access to the spreadsheet so you might have to wait a little unti of them is online and adds you to the list. They'll let you know, once you're added.

Congratulations! looks like CIO finally woke up.

Hi Katy, you should try to call them again in a few weeks. If CIO told you that they haven't even touched any application received after mid-october then maybe yours is still on a pile waiting to be openend? You shouldn't give up just yet, and in the meantime work on putting together everything...

I guess, it's 'wait and see', lol. Anyway, happy waiting everyone. Hopefully many members still get their PERs this week. And Katie, I saw you mentioning that you sent a money order with your lost application. In the US you can check on the status of a moneyorder if you have it's number (which...

So does it look now that PERs are issued by actual payment date or receival date of application? I had the almost 30-day delay where I had to send in alternate form of payment as requested by CIO. So maybe I won't get my PER this year ... I hope they go by receival date ???

Can't imagine anything better than staying 24 hours at work, lol. Have fun. :P

It's kind of funny. For quite some time I had to convince my husband that we should apply for PR in Canada and he wasn't sure if he wants to do that. Now he keeps sending me messages to work, "Any news yet?", .... I guess, he really is on board now :)

That's what I'm doing all day long, but no news so far :(
