Yes. I collected the data from dates people had placed in their profiles. In another week, I'll update everything.

I took a sample of 34 people who started their application in early 2010 and are now finished their application at New Delhi 11.7% of the people had to go for an interview. 29.4% of the people had to submit additional documents or go for an interview. 76.4% of the people had a passport request...

Its your job. I think they are looking for possible acts of espionage. I just read this on the CTV Web site: China is top espionage risk to Canada: CSIS A CSIS official said that Chinese spies stole $1 billion worth of technological secrets every month. In a 2004 report, CSIS said Chinese...

You can put me down for a landing date of May 18, 2011. I'm so exceited. DrDave

4 hours before she received it in the mail. visa issued may 2 and arrived may 6.

I agree. The struggle is over. Now back to sleep cause its 4am!

My wife just called me. She has the visa and the passport back now. This all happened within 4 hours of ecas update.

My wife just called me!!! She has the visa now in hand. We're finiished with Delhi now!!!

Yes!!!!! now ecas is updated to decision made!!! Now waiting for visa - last step!!!!!!

Yeah another step done!!! ecase now updated to decision made. Hopefully its what they hinted at the interview, which is a yes!!

It probably helped in our case. Too many differences. VO words "Despite your age differences, differences in educational background, and your cultural background, we accept your application." 12 year age gap - doctorate versus diploma - white christian vs punjabi hindu indian - 6 months on...

True I agree with you the judgement is not just based on the photos, but other factors as well. However that what was mentioned by the visa officer. Of course we are making judgements on evidence that is currently unseen by us.

Since you'll be waiting. I'll let you know how long here are some stats that I calculated for New Delhi. I took a sample of 34 people who started their application in early 2010 and are now finished their application at New Delhi 11.7% of the people had to go for an interview. 29.4% of the...

True. But there is always that little bit of doubt that always seem to get us. From other cases I studied, I just went over the spreadsheet. Most people that went throught the interview got it in about a month afterwards. Not sure if that was ND taking a long time or IPS.

They should be good with that. I counted 148 for us.

Now lets see which comes first - a decision made update on ecas or visa from IPS

True, they did say application accepted, but I will be much happier when we get visa throught the postal system. Which is now averaging 7 days, for the three letters that we got so far. Delhi - near Chandigarh.

Talking to my wife and father in-law by phone, I did find out that some couples were being denied at the interview process. Her father was outside the embassy talking to a few people who had finished their interviews that morning as well. One couple was denied because they felt that it was not a...
