Danke!!! My husband is going to call cic tomorrow if we don't hear anything today.. I called on Friday but they wouldn't give me any information because I'm not the sponsor -.- Others who submitted their app on the same day as we did got their approvals this week, so they should be working on...

Congrats!!! So excited for you!! Maybe we will get our email today as well! At least we know they're definitely working on apps received on May 17 now! So you didn't get AOR, just straight approval, right?!

I just saw that the processing times for the VO were updated: Last quarterly update: August 20, 2012 Vienna – Austria 9 I really hope that you guys will hear some good news very soon! If they're on summer vacation, they should return to their offices well rested and eager to tackle all...

Congrats to everyone who got their approval! Makes me happy to see some movement and hopefully everyone who's still waiting will get their approval very soon! We're on day 96 now and tomorrow morning my husband (my sponsor) will call cic to find out what's going on.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Thanks for the encouragement! :) I hope so too!! I've always had this feeling that today would be the day, because it's exactly 3 months after we submitted the app.. but another girl I met in the forum also submitted her app on the same day and she already got her approval on July 17, exactly 1...

I just called CIC but they wouldn't give me any information because I'm the applicant >:( I guess we'll just have to wait...

I also did some research for volunteering and as far as I understood it, you can volunteer as a visitor as long as there's nobody doing the same job while getting paid for it. Example: I wanted to help at my hubbys stores inventory without getting paid for it, but since the other employees were...

I just tried calling CIC, it's very annoying that they just hang up on you when they are busy instead of keeping you in the line.. I guess I will just have to be a liiittle bit more patient and hopefully we'll hear from CIC tomorrow or on Monday/Tuesday. News before the weekend would be AMAZING...

OMG how exciting!!! Congrats!! That's giving me hope that ours is just around the corner! :D

That's why I think we should just wait and see what the update on Wed looks like... Patience patience patience ;)

Our 86 days were up on Saturday, so I guess if I don't hear anything by Friday, I'll call cic. Can I as the applicant call or does the sponsor have to do it?

I was in a similar situation, got married and then had to submit a request to change my status from working to visitor. I only submitted the marriage registration form. I asked for one year, but I got 6 months. I also included a letter from my husband, stating that he will sponsor me and support...

My hubby and I met almost 2 years ago in San Francisco. I was doing a management class + internship and he was traveling. Met in August 2010, fell in love, I had to go back to Germany in December, he visited me in Germany in Jan/Feb 2011, I applied for a Working Holiday Visa and came to Canada...

I second that, haha! Really wished they had worked backwards just a little bit more. ;) My guess is we will get approval on Aug. 17 (exactly 3 months after app was received, it seems like that happes a lot). Just one more week, hopefully!!

Congrats!! Is only the sponsor allowed to call and receive information from the call center or could I as the applicant call as well?

Oh no, this is really unfortunate. :( I had a temporary work permit (Working Holiday Visa) for one year and I didn't apply for OHIP because I always thought I would have to be a PR. Now it's too late and I have to wait even longer. :( Concerning the passport change issue: I really hope that...

Thanks guys for your input! Deutschbug, do you live in Canada? If yes, how long did it take to get your updated passport? That's my one concern, it takes a few weeks to register the marriage in Germany and then it takes 10-12 weeks to get the new passport. By that time I MIGHT already get...

That sucks :( I was hoping for Vienna to be relatively quick.

Keep crossing my fingers for all of us who are still waiting!! I have seen some people get their approval exactly 3 months after they sent in their application, so I hope hubby and I will get ours on Aug. 17. It's making me sad to see that people who just applied a few days after me had their...
