Good to hear. Come on LA, let's get moving! I hope everyone will hear the good news soon. 8)

We filed outland. US F1 visa Spouse living cross the border. I am going down once or a couple of times a week, feeling more like American than Canadian right now.

I am sorry for what you have to go through. We filed early June, 2011 if that makes you feel better. It is absurd that our government is treating us like criminals trying to destroy our families. They wouldn't even give my spouse the visa to visit me during this painful wait. Even criminals get...

Hi nsr. 2joys just got a new interview date with LA today. Hope we'll get ours soon. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/interview-in-june-with-buffalo-amid-its-office-closure-t106437.30.html

Hi 2joys. I just found the answer myself. Yours was supposed to be in July 2012 with Buffalo. Our was supposed to be in June 2012. You would think we should have heard something from them first. When did you put in your spousal application? And AOR?

Hello 2joys! So good to hear things are moving for you. Sorry to hear that you can't go for the November 13 interview. I hope you can figure things out and re-schedule with them. I forgot what was your interview date with Buffalo before? Best of luck to you!

Yes, it's very strange. What's more strange is that we had our interview scheduled and confirmed with Buffalo for early June 2012 and they cancelled it for us because of its closure. I have the understanding all scheduled interviews after beginning of June 2012 were cancelled. And they actually...

So you file never went to Buffalo. Ours was sitting in Buffalo since August 2011 AOR. Buffalo had scheduled and confirmed our finalizing interview for early June 2012. They cancelled it beginning of June 2012. And now our file is sitting in Ottawa. Double the pain!! :'(

Guess even with the MP is not producing anything now. They closed it because of the budget cut, to save money. They have definitely reduced staff through the process. Just the way the handle the whole transfer is so messy and disorganized! Did your file arrive in Buffalo before its closure? How...

Thank you parker24. So does that mean our file is in LA too technically, or in Ottawa?

Thank you Computergeek. If your file got transferred to Ottawa too, why does your signature say LA? Here's our timeline: Application Filed > Early June, 2011 Stage 1 Approve & Transferred > End July, 2011 AOR from Buffalo > End of August, 2011 Confirmed Finalizing Interview Date > Early...

For a whole 3 months we didn't hear nothing from Ottawa since our file got transferred from Buffalo. So we decided to email them everyday for the past week. Today we finally got this: Good day, Your file is not lost. The file was transferred to this office following the closure of Buffalo...

Thank you CharlieD10. I was about to say that. It's decision made on Stage 1. Or that's supersonic fast if that's Stage 2. There're US applicants still waiting for that since middle of last year 2011. Hoping Ottawa moves faster for every US applicant.

Re: Decision Made. Letter in the mail. Positive or Negative I think it should be good news. Do you mind sharing your timeline? Where was your file processed?

You're right. Only if we would have been transferred to LA or another US office, it would have been different. Buffalo was holding onto our interview till they cancelled it beginning of June 2011(less than 2 weeks before it's supposed to happen). If they would have transferred our file in March...

My supposedly deadline is next week(that's one year since Buffalo AOR). Medical expired last May. Hoping to see something from the notes next month. I totally understand ELOH. We do run of out patience sometimes. We have to spend tons of extra money so my spouse can live close to me across the...

You should give this to your MP and let them remind Ottawa people! I pulled it out from another topic. It was supplied by OhCanadiana: Even if the officers had other cases in progress, they would need to respect the receipt date. Per OP-1: "For assessment purposes, visa offices receiving a...

Hi Eloh, I shall find out when the notes are here next month. It'll be a different officer than the one in Buffalo looking at the file whenever we get one. It's like having the whole thing done twice!

They wouldn't reply on inquiry. Did you request notes? I shall get the notes next month and intend to contact MP if nothing yet by October. Hope we all hear something very soon.

Me too! June 2011 Applicant. Buffalo AOR August 2011! Was supposed to finalized with June 12, 2012 interview. It was cancelled and told to wait to be contacted. It's been dead since. Just ordered GCMS. I think our files all went in this batch transferred by Buffalo(I call that abandoned by...
