Hello,

Our application for spousal sponsorship was put in on April 13th, 2012 so we'd like to join this group and the spreadsheet(we got medicals done on April 10th). We are living in Korea right now so we applied to the Seoul office. It's pretty nerve-racking seeing these processing dates going up and up.

Anyways it'll be good to see other people going through the same process.

Good luck everyone!

I know I shouldn't call, but I just want to make sure that my app is safe at CIC. It really concerns me...what if they returned it and it was lost? Very possible, since I am in the mainland and the mail system is not that great...though I did provide my address in Chinese characters...but still...I just want some kind of confirmation!

Sorry, the last week or so has been stressing me out...the closer we get, the more anxious I feel! Hard to control it!

If anyones app should be considered safe, it is yours. I can tell from your posts that you are meticulous....stop worrying ;)

Hey Rosie Lee,
I'm here... just reading the feb and march threads to see if anybody gets approval, and the UK thread to see how quickly they are processing .... I'm most likely moving to Canada at the end of September, PR or not, so it would be nice to be done with everything and be able to look for a job but with current waiting times, seems unlikely... oh well!

Haha, one day seems now like a while. I am still here and reading and not expecting anything for another 2-3 weeks. I rather count down the days before I meet my wife again. Yipee, I am down to 69.
