Hey everyone. I did my border run today. All went pretty smooth except for the fact the guys at the border were pretty frosty. After they went over my paperwork they called me up to the desk told me to sign and then said my card would arrive in the next 3 months then just walked off. I had to...

Last night I got an email saying the status of my application has changed. Logged into MyCIC and boom!!! Approved!!!! So stoked! My letter of approval should arrive tomorrow so I will be doing a border run on the weekend!! Can't believe that its nearly all over. Thanks to everyone on here who...

Does anybody know how long it usually takes once they have requested a copy of my passport and new photos?

OK so now I have been requested to send in copies of my passport and new photos!! I just sent them this afternoon. Pretty stoked to finally see some light at the end of this tunnel. Does anyone have any idea how long it takes on average for this stage to be done?? I really hope it won't be too...

Hey guys!!!! So I just logged into my account after a week or so trying to be patient and not checking it and my ECAS account says Decision Made but when I click on it it offers no new information. I logged into the MY CIC account and it still says background check in progress and final decision...

I'm still waiting for mine. It seems like it is taking much longer that most!! I have been on Background check in progress for what seems like forever!! I wish there was a way to find out why it is taking so long!

Hey Guys, I need some help here, my application seems to be taking ages and I don't know why. My application was received on March 18th this year and they started processing on May 10th. On july 7th they requested my medical check which I did the same week but since then I have heard nothing...

2 Months!! God I hope that doesn't happen to me!!

Hey guys. I just have a question regarding timelines. I submitted my application on March 18th and then CIC emailed me confirming they had received my application on May 10th and had begun processing. On june 7th they requested my medical which i did and sent back a week later. As of today...

Wow thats fast!! I applied at the Sydney office in May. Hopefully mine comes through any day now...... Congratulations!!!

Thats good news for sure!! I haven't checked the timeline. Is there a way to do that or do I just have to find posts from people that have used the same office as me?

Hey everyone! So I posted my application in in March and it was received in Canada on the 18th and didn't start getting processed until May the 10th. It is being processed in the Sydney office. I signed up to the CIC account tonight and my status is as follows: Application/Profile Status: Open...

In a previous reply to one of my questions it was stated that the outland processing time in sydney for common law sponsorship was 5-7 months. Does anybody know how accurate this is and if it also includes the time it takes to process whether or not my canadian partner can sponsor me?

Hey everyone! I have a question. My (canadian) girlfriend and I (australian) are applying for common law sponsorship. I am assuming that the best option would be outland but I have seen in the cic website about getting an open work permit while the application is in process. It says you have to...
