    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Another working day at CIC over, still no word on e-CAS - you can't tell me that something isn't wrong! They should have gotten it November 16th at the latest and there's people who had their applications arrive well into the 20s of November who have now been accepted to sponsor and their apps...

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Don't worry, they only started processing on the 10th which was a Thursday and then they only had Fri before the weekend - two days isn't unusual! :) Maybe it's just because they're going to ask you for more documents or your case isn't as "straightforward" as some of the others on here who get...

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Can you describe quickly for me how difficult it is to do this and what you need to do to apply? Because I'm starting to think that we'll need to do something like that - I have to leave Denmark in May 2010 regardless because my visa here runs out so May is definitely our moving month, but it...

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    I didn't read anywhere that it didn't apply for spousal sponsorship, but perhaps I missed something. We didn't use one either, didn't really feel it was necessary in our case. I just checked e-CAS for the last time tonight; it's after 6pm there so I assume the office is long closed and that...

    Well I'm sure the IO's will appreciate that more than if you had sent too little! :) No harm done, I'm sure.

    Have they banned TickerFactory countdowns in forum signatures? Because mine has disappeared from my sig and I notice others who had them before no longer have them. Just wondering... Just out of curiosity (I really should ask any questions here, sometimes they worry me more than ever -...

    How long did it take you to complete the whole application?

    For us it took exactly 2 months. The forms weren't the problem, it's chasing up after all those supporting documents! And then it took me a whole afternoon to scan a copy of everything :P

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Thanks all for the kind words. It helps talking to people who are in the same boat - my husband is oblivious to all this because I'm the worrier and I'm the one checking e-CAS every day! lol... so I tend to keep it all to myself. People who ask about how it's going can't believe that our...

    Argh it's so frustrating checking time and time again and we STILL aren't in the system on eCAS! When do you think I should start calling CPC-M to make sure they even received our application?!

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    The sponsors information :) I thought for SURE I would see something on eCAS today, but... nothing. We sent the application on November 9th by regular Danish mail. According to Post Denmark, it would take max. 6 working days to arrive in Canada (and we've never had a problem with the postal...

    I hope you can be with her soon, too - good luck! :) It amazes me how many of you have to live away from your spouses and go through this. Putting together our application was so stressful, I can't imagine how hard it would have been without my husband, if he wasn't allowed to live with me or...

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Yep that's right, the receipt number :) I don't know how long it will take for you but we sent our application November 9th and we've still not heard a peep from them so... it could be a while depending on where you sent it and also factoring in that the holidays are coming up.

    Thread for Applications sent November 2009

    Thanks so much for your reply, ritosgirl. I was really curious what others had experienced in how long it had taken from them receiving an application to processing it, just for a rough guide on what to expect. It's fair enough having processing times and all that, but it's all these little in...

    We sent our spousal application Nov. 9th and it's now Nov. 25th - our case status is still "not found" when I check on eCAS... should I be worried?? The max. delivery time it would take, according to the company we sent it with, is 6 working days. So at the latest, assuming there were no delays...

    Hey guys, We sent our app. off November 9th and we'll have to assume they've got it by now or will soon, because we lost our tracking number! Oh well. Checking the CIC website every day using the online application checker to see if they've received it and started processing, but I assume...

    Ohhh, that's why. I thought both were visa offices. I read the instructions MANY times but got confused by the abundance of information on their website which I thought was contradicting. Thank you, ariell for your time and help :)

    When my husband went for his medical check, on the form we said we were sending it to the London office. Is this okay?? Also, what do we write on my spouse's "Application for Perm. Residence" when it asks which Visa Office we want to process our application? London or Mississauga? Thanks for...
