Amen. With the 1K we paid, you'd think we could get an express, certified delivery for the COPR. Hell, I'd pay for it were that an option.

Thanks! I'm hoping you get good news soon, too. If anything, it means that they're making progress into May applicants. Our time has come, and before the holiday season no less.

Awesome! Thanks, ChellyCat. I'll look for it sometime next week. I appreciate the info. Hope you're enjoying the weather! Nice to still have green on the ground this time of year . . .

No problem! Good luck!

Hey there. Hope you're having a great Sunday. So, the expected timeline for Ottawa VO is 6-10 months based on real data (versus the timelines on the CIC sties). Your application was received roughly 3 months ago, so I wouldn't expect DM on the PR for another 3 months or more if you go based on...

Hey, all. Happy Sunday! For those of you who've landed, how long after seeing DM in ECAS did you receive COPR in the mail? I got DM yesterday, and I currently am "living" in Toronto. I'm trying to gauge approximately how many days from now I can stalk my mailbox. Thanks!

The Open Work Permit could have restrictions, but it's not common as far as I know. She'd be able to apply and work for whomever for whatever hours she and her employer agree to. Most are approved for that OWP roughly 4 months after they send it in with the spousal, inland application. Here's...

Hey, Baffled. I ordered notes a few times waiting for my application to see DM, and I didn't actually see anything useful both times I ordered them. Go figure, right? First batch I ordered was about 3 months after I applied, and it showed nothing but the SA approval and that the file had been...

You were really fortunate to see PR that quickly with your husband's VO, IrisSphere. Congrats! nyctomtl, Ottawa VO takes from 6-10 months. I just got DM from a May 5th app, though some from April and March and even February are still waiting, and a few even from December 2014 saw DM this past...

You mean I'm the woman, and you're very welcome. ;) This stuff can get very confusing. If your GF cannot get a student visa due to her language scores, and you get married, she can: -Come to Canada or remain in Canada (after your wedding) on a visitor's visa, and can apply for either the...

Thank you! I'm hoping it's a sign of things to come for May applicants. I replied to the additional info request on the 23rd right away—I'd say within a few hours of it being sent to me. I never saw a line "we sent you an email for additional info" on my ECAS at all. It's been 3 lines since I...

Do you have that list? I wish I'd come across it sooner!

Hey, Calgaryzach. At this point, you don't qualify for a common law application, nor do you qualify for the married application. I know your predicament all too well. I had a similar one with my now wife. Some possible paths to you two being together are such: 1. Get study visa for 1 year...

I checked ECAS this morning. I haven't seen an email, nor a 4th line that says, "We sent you correspondence on XXXXX." I'm hoping I see an email next week. If not, I may give the CIC a ring to see if someone will tell me if it's been approved, denied, or was a mistake and they're just screwing...

Here's to hoping next week is your week then! If anything, I think it good news to see May applicants slowly see DM this far out from Christmas. My hope is the majority of them will have it by the time the holidays roll in. I can't think of a better Christmas Gift from the CIC than that.

Just posted this on another thread, but I figure it's most appropriate here: I woke up this morning to Decision Made! There's no 4th line, but I'll take DM any day! I'm hoping it's a favorable one. Timeline is as follows: Application Sent: May 5th AOR: June 3rd SA: July 7th IP: October 9th...

I woke up this morning to Decision Made! There's no 4th line, but I'll take DM any day! I'm hoping it's a favorable one. Timeline is as follows: Application Sent: May 5th AOR: June 3rd SA: July 7th IP: October 9th RPRF/Additional Proof of Sponsor Residency Email: October 23rd DM: November...

I'm hoping you'll see it next week!

In the year I've been on these boards, I haven't ever heard anyone who has DM on ecas, call and be told that their DM "meant it was just a complete application." I'm more inclined to believe that the CIC worker was mistaken versus your DM not actually being DM. You've been waiting 10 months...
