2006 DAMASCUS APPLICANTS

[06applicant]

it will probably take me ten years then.
could they refuse my immigration if I stay illegaly in Canada? I'm on a temp visa there now.

Immigration violations are NEVER good for you on the long run. As far as I know, there are no amnesty programs in sight.

From an ethical standpoint, by staying illegally, you are jeopardizing the chances of other people from your country to come to Canada legally for legitimate, honest reasons: study, visit relatives, business meetings; that is to stay, Canada is even more strict than the US in enforcing the immigrant-intent rule when anyone applies for temp visa. By violating that, they are going to be forced to look more carefully at other temp-visa applications from your country, and perhaps reject more of them.

my people the Lebanese = citizens of opportunity, look that up!
I really am not responsible and will not be for any judgment Canada ALREADY HAS over Lebanese immigrants,
two things, most Lebanese people who came here lied and cheated their way in, I am the only one who came in without lying or falsifying documents, plus they already are notorious worldwide for whatever.
so people from my country already do whatever they do to come in regardless of ethics, IT IS NOT MY PROBLEM.
Also Lebanese didn't care about me when they start killing each other in the streets, why should I care what they do or what other countries think of them.
Thanks for your advice "Immigration violations are NEVER good for you on the long run. As far as I know, there are no amnesty programs in sight."
The rest of your post I can live without.

Dear all,
It's my first time in this forum,
I submitted my application in Damascus embassy March 2007..... and still waiting ......
I checked the processing times for Damascus and i was shocked when i discovered that the increased it from 63 months to 85 months

Anybody have any idea about when they are going to start processing 2007 files?
and how long does it takes to obtain the PR visa after they start processing my file?
I had my IELTS test a month ago ..... do i have to submit the IELTS result to the embassy of wait until they contact me?

Wish you all best regards

omgg they are still at the begining!!!!!!!!

I wonder why they are going so slowly and in such small batches.

Also, I've done my medicals and was wondering whether they'd start rolling out passport requests after everyone in 2006 gets the med request or would they start doing that earlier? Because if they are going to wait for everyone in 2006 to get their request, then Jan 2006 applicants are looking at one more (and hopefully final!) year of wait, while Dec 2006 applicants are looking at about 2 years.

How about August ones that are still in Damascus? 1.5 years?
