I don't see why not :) wouldn't hurt to get more opinion

Hey I voiced my concern about the delay too but your letter sounds great. We live in downtown edmonton as well!

Contacting your MP is absolutely free. They can inquire about your file, probably access to more information than you, I think? (please correct me if im wrong) And also the fact that you are bringing matters to the MP. Because this delay is ridiculous. That said, I just sent my MP an e-mail...

Thank you. I will get my husband to contact our MP.

Hi jamique, I have a PGWP right now but will be attending uni again this fall, and I am changing my status then. That is very good to hear as that will save us more than $12k/yr for sure!

In Ontario you will be assessed domestic fees after AIP. You still need a study permit if your program is 6 months or longer.

Omg congrats Pritha and laurak!! I'm next in the spreadsheet, shaking with excitement!! Fingers crossed.

My husband is the sponsor and he is totally shocked that being my husband meant absolutely nothing. In terms of going to school, basic rights etc. I told him that it's my PGWP that gave me health care for now and what allowed to work. He is appalled at what most of us is going through. But...

The comments from the cbc article is very upsetting, I don't think I will keep reading. But nothing unexpected as immigrants will always viewed in a negative light. I can only come here and rant lol

Thanks for the positive words, danib! I am focusing on my school now so that will take my mind off it abit, at least.
