I was looking at the spreadsheets from months before us and have noticed that in average the process time is almost half the process time estimated by cic. Does that mean that there is hope that we'll be joining our husbands/ wives much sooner?

Generally CIC takes conservative estimates. Yet still I believe fast approval for Sponsor is not necessarily a sign of fast approval for Sponsored one. Dont want to give you false hope.

hello avissa. I agree with abe, i think it is a case to case basis.There are some applicants who applied earlier but got their visa later. But i am very much hopeful and full of faith that ours will be faster. We complied with everything they want us to submit, i believe its enough.cheers. ;) ;) ;)

hi zelmercphil, Since you will resubmit this October; you will no longer be an August applicant. Hence , you are now an October applicant. We share the same scenario, I was originally a July applicant but because we failed to include our proof of medical in our applicatiom, the same was returned.But dont be sad, everything happens for a reason. Rest assured that the moment you resubmit, your AOR and SA will be faster since they had already scanned your application. God Bless.

Did you got a letter or email? How did you know which docs were missing?

Good luck!

No I did not. The one sponsoring me contacted the immigration; they they informed us
that we lack docs.

18-07-2014 Thankyou Lord
hi guys, i think we got already our SA! :D
we tried to open ECAS using my hubby's info then we're able to access it.
it's stated under Sponsorship Application Status column "Decision Made" then when i clicked the link it says:

"We received XXXXXXX application for permanent residence on September 4, 2013."
"We sent you a letter on September 24, 2013 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us."

its been 3weeks now since they've said they going to send the letter to my hubby's mailing address, but until now he havent get anything.
As i'd double check the address indicated in ECAS it shows incorrcet postal code, it shows there 4F6 instead of 4E6...

now my concerns are, is that letter we supposed to receive is a positive or negative one?
then how we able to correct the postal code in his record?
that might be the reason why he dont receive the letter yet in his mailbox.

HELP!! :( :(
