According to the June thread, some of the people who applied on June 29/30th are getting their approval emails, so although the CIC website isn't changing, they are still working towards our August pile. =)

And good luck Septemberites! Be glad that your application won't have to deal with the summer backlog.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I was also looking at other monthly threads, and it seems that they average more applicants per month than August. (Feb has 51? Am I reading that right?) Is that a function of August being a summer month and potential applicants are on vacation? Or maybe this forum is becoming less popular? I am hoping that with less applications, CIC-M will be able to process all of them in a decent time frame.

That is what I will tell myself. =)

I second you there sixrogue..hoping they process it quicker, furthermore with the new IMM0008 form.

My husband has actually told me to stop checking on updates :p he said it stresses him out when i kept whining the process times are not changing..

Just speculating, but I'm guessing that there's more than a few CIC agents on vacation... could be also the new forms and computer updates to handle them is slowing things down, and just maybe there was a lot more applicants in May-June and it created a backlog (there's so many more people applying that never post on any forum or tracker)... maybe by the time it gets to us it'll be back to 30 days (oh please oh please oh please).

2011/08/26 AM MISSISSAUGA Item successfully delivered

As nervous as I am, I am so relieved it made it.

Is the delivered date the date people use for "app filed"?
