    I hear ya Dan. My file is back in Mississauga right now. We had to do some new paperwork which was a huge pain in the a__! No one, including my lawyer, knew how to fill it out. Our latest is they will forward the new form to CEM as soon as they open it....that takes anywhere from 2 - 6 weeks...

    I need to know that as well. My daughter is under 2 so I think I am ok. But who knows anymore. Sorry your file is taking so long. We handed in the passport at the same time. I am still waiting too.

    Nothing yet....if it happens this week I am fine with it since I will have time to go over and do the Short Term Passports. We have already do both Canadian Citizenship applications. Worst case is I have to go over for another 2 weeks to apply and wait for the passports for my girls. I was...

    Just got off the phone with my MP....here's what they said: They called their contact in CIC who, I guess, looks at my GMCS notes and confirm that they have my wife's and kids passports and they confirmed the changing of my wife's address. Here's the part that I have never heard before. They...

    right....that's why I was so pissed when I was talking to CIC. They made my wife do an ultrasound and she was 3 months pregnant. When I found out I was ready to kill someone. They claimed they put two lead vest over her stomach. When my wife asked what happened if my wife refused to do the...

    Your right, I do feel bad for the people applying today. 14 months or longer is just not acceptable. One way to look at it is that they at least know the wait time is long, and can prepare mentally for it. For people like us, and especially you, who started this with a posted time line of 7...

    Well CEM just changed my wife's mailing address in the Philippines. I requested it on May 28th. I am glad they are at least reading the emails before sending back her passports. Hopefully this means I will see some quick action on the account. They are know for doing things in bunches on files...

    Everything is pretty easy...the signs are easy to follow. Both boarding passes will be given to you in Manila. Your right, it's 550 peso tax. At Hog Kong, you will just follow the E1 or E2 Transfer signs. Very easy to find. Security is pretty quick, and traveling both flights with Cathway, they...

    I am sorry...what I was asking is everyone is talking about these exit interviews/classes, CFO and COA. Whats the relationship of those to the Cenomar my wife already did? It was a one day course telling her about issues with living in Canada ect. Sounds the same as what the CFO is. I was just...
