true, its more of a relief than happiness....

it doesn't concern us anymore, because we files our application already, (for PR) but there are so many changes they've made this year...the latest one i've seen regarding Citizenship....that as of 1November applications have to do a test for the language, (possibly TEFAQ or IELTS Test) to proof language proficiency...
There might be many more changes to citizenship by the time we apply for that...

I hope you hear something this coming week.. I know its tough for all of us and at this point it will be more of a relief than happiness!
Me too but at this point I can't even get LA to respond to any of my emails. I told my hubby we need to contact the MP but we're not at deadline yet and don't know if they would even check into anything.

I even pointed out my son needs to be enrolled in college up there and he may miss deadline if things dont pick up! He already took this year off. Boy, is he kicking himself now. Maybe had he actually enrolled down here we WOULD have heard by now. Lady luck had it out for my i think. LOL

Like i stated before we got updated a few weeks ago with "medical received" on ecase but was hoping PPR would be right behind it.. hmm not so much

Thanks to everyone who's so supportive on here. :-* I love the fact we can read and learn from others experiences

You been waiting so much longer Sharuu, hopefully it is your time too.. ;)

2012 applicants have been hearing about their cases lately. However, I dont think they are family applicants. I am not sure about the family applicants' timeline though.. It has been 10 months for you so its not very long (I know for you it is :)) ...

Just be patient and your time will come soon!

It was ok, with lots of mashrum and grilled vegies, it went pretty good...

Sorry for writing stupid things in this thread.
I have been busy in research lately, and reading here, is kind of a relief for me. I know i am wasting time and space of others.

I will try to keep my posts to a minimum as stated by CIC in their famous replies!

:) two more days of long weekend... rocket is ready to go...

O cmon man.. we all deserve to be light hearted at times. You need to come and enjoy this journey, whether its talking about the weather, food or some poetic verses. We cant always talk about PR eh... I hope you continue to post here though!
