I started a timeline spreadsheet for us April-ers. I added info from what has been shared so far, and will try to keep up regularly. If you'd like your name added to the list, just let me know and any info to include. (link is on my signature, it won't let me post on this thread)

I tend to be a visual learner and crazy about organization, so this is right up my alley! It'll be fun to watch everyone's progress. We're all in this together!

Hi Merger!

I sent my application March 29 and the tracking shows that it was successfully delivered to CIC last April 2. . I am waiting for an update or an email from CIC confirming that they have received my application. . But i was wondering if you guys received any email from CIC regarding your application?

From what I've read, CIC-M doesn't open applications until they are processed the very same day and IF an acknowledgement of receipt is sent, it won't be until the application has been opened. With the current processing time at 75 days, and working on applications received January 18... it's going to be a very long wait =(

Hi mumay,

No haven't received any... :(

Sunshine is right, we'll never know until they open our applications and start processing.. And that sucks!

Wish they'd send acknowledgment letters for all applications and within a reasonable time..

Guess we just need to wait... :-X

But think of how much time it would take to send AOR to everyone. I'd rather them dedicate their time to sponsorship approvals so it can finish faster.
