GUYS! OH EM GEE!!!
we got the golden email!
Passport request
AHHHHH we got it on feb 11 but I have been travelling so I apologize for posting this late. BUT WE GOT IT!!!
Here is our timeline
We received your application for permanent residence on July 27, 2011.
We started processing your application on December 12, 2012.
Medical results have been received.
honestly from what I did I realized that it was a good idea to do the medicals without them asking because we have been given till jun 7 2013 for the visa expire. We also did the police certificate without them asking and that might be the reason to why they asked for PPR in a short amount of time from when it went into process.
We hope that you all hear something very soon
Best of luck and I will update you about issuing the visa.
