That is strange, No chance to come down but to go up. Well I am in PK and I know how does it feel at 2:00 in the afternoon in AC room, make you lazy and sleepy. I assume that also apply on CHC, so expect no productivity between 2-4.
How are you liking it there ? ... Did you get your vacation extended ?

I hate to be the one bringing "not so encouraging" news but I just checked the CIC website & the processing time for spousal sponsorship from Pakistan has gone up to 24 freaking months :mad: ... Last quarterly updated on July 26, 2011. I was hoping that the processing time would go down but instead it went up :( :(

Sponsorship Application Status shows that your application was approved and it was forwarded to the Visa office for processing. Did your sponsor receive a letter of acknowledgement from the Visa office ?

It seems like you applied from Quebec ?

This means you are September AOR. Currently they are working on May-July AOR's and asking them to send Re-PCC, supp forms etc and in some cases Re-medical as well. I believe you have a couple months of wait till you hear something from them, usually asking for and updated PCC and some updated Supp forms.

Btw did he send pictures of wedding and post wedding ?

Okay. The average time it takes them to open the file for initial review is 9 -12 months. Technically, you should be getting something soon from them InshAllah. But just for your satisfaction, you can email them and ask them about your case.

This is the email address of Islamabad embassy:

islamabad-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca

Couple of things to remember when you email them. Make sure you mention the file #, name & DOB of the person being sponsored. This way they can open your file and tell you the stage of processing. Also, make sure your email is short and not too lengthy, usually 3-4 lines get a quicker reply. You might get a confirmation reply from them and in a couple of days get a generic reply from them informing you the stage of your case processing. I would recommend emailing them in working hours of the embassy for a quicker reply.

He can simply tell them that he went there on vacation once and once to visit a friend for possible business opportunity/deal.
