I was originally a July applicant, but due to the way that my story has gone, I had to re-do my application. It finally got to CIC (and with a signature!) on August 8 2012. :)

I would love if they decided to keep me as a July applicant. :(

YAYYYY!! We have finally sent off our application this morning =D It weighed 5 pounds, haha! We sent it next day guranteed to make SURE it gets there, kind of expensive but I think it's worth it. Anyway, louie_ann you can update the spreadsheet with that bit of info the next time you go in to enter stuff =)

Again, best of luck to everyone still chipping away at their application!

Congratulations! It must feel so good to send it off!

How does the payment work for the mailing? The closer you are to the location you're sending the cheaper it is?? Or is it the same whether you're sending it from Ontario or BC?? I'll be sending the package from Brampton, which is right next to Mississauga. If they allowed it I would just go to CIC-M and hand it to them, but unfortunately they don't allow that, so will it be a little bit cheaper since I'm sending it from so close???

There are so many options for sending it, the price would be different depending on what you want. Your best option is to go to CanadaPost.ca (this is who I sent it with) and go to rates and prices, then click on find a rate, type in your info and such and it'll show you all of the options you'll have when you go to the post office. I highly suggest doing this, it saves the time you would spend asking the post office employee a million questions while a line forms behind you haha I believe it ended up costing us about 53 dollars, but like I said there are tons of options that are cheaper, we just went with the fastest one because we wanted that thing GONE haha

Of course if you don't want to use Canada Post you can still do the same thing with UPS or FedEx or whatever you plan to use, they all should have something silimar on their website to help you calculate the cost. Good luck friend! =)

Thanks! I'll probably end up using Canada Post as well because they are probably the easiest and I've used them before... I'll do as you suggest and review it all online before I actually go to the post office. Like you I'll probably choose the quickest option so Mississauga can have it as soon as possible so we can get processing!

Thank you =D Quick question though, for my profile info that shows up under where my avatar is suppose to be, I was going to update it to show that I sent the app but the only option is app filed, is that the same thing as sending it off or is that when CIC starts processing the sponsors stuff?

i guess the application filed is the same as when you sent the application.

Ours have been sent a week ago. We've send it with a tracking number and overnight.

I've had my medicals done on July 20. And we are going through Vienna, Austria.

We didn't hear from the CIC yet if they recieved the application. Do they normally send a confirmation?

Louie_ann, Can you add me in that spreadsheet also?

Good luck to all of us!!!!
