harith,,, yes ,,my situation is just like yours,,applied with a lawyer in 2006,,updated 2010,,,and nothing new since then,,,,,i called my lawyer he said he will send for another update in december again!!! immigration canada saying still in process!!! once my lawyer told me that lebanese government is slow sending security documents to canada immigration,,,that slows things ,,,plus,,,what is happening in syria may be doubling the load? or our application are in warsaw so we have nothing to do with damascus or jordon????
