Okay I just gave an updated answer based on the current situation. Since we have members waiting from October AOR's to have their initial review done, so I said 12-13 months based on the current speed of CHC-Islamabad. Same with the total process timing, it will increase to 14-17 months by the time October AOR's will get the Visa. WES has always been right on about most of the information.

I don't think they will have any issues with the external hard drive, but its better if you wife keeps the external hard drive with the luggage rather than her handbag. Its useless to bring the CPU in my opinion.
You are probably correct, bro. However, I have started to lose faith in this forum since many people gave different information here. This forum is not straight answer and different paths due to less credibles. InshAllah, i feel maybe the process should be fast than our expectation next year.

(My case is about Wife, and file has been transferred to ISL April 2011.), I will keep eyes on raptorfans and others if they get any news from them.

Bro why don't you tell her put her project on laptop and there won't be any issue to bring laptop at all. External HD can get damaged in the Luggage or maybe she will have problem through customs. Anyway I always use laptop and USB key, never had problem.
Yes, we discussed about new laptop but unfortunately very expensive in Pakistan. Other option is we probably have external hard drive (protection) and some USB. good idea? Also, there are many things happening in Pakistan stealing laptops from the luggages in the airport, which is not safe.

I don't think anyone here has any inside connections with the Canadian Immigration dept. or Islamabad Embassy :D Thus, the figures shared by the members should always be regarded as rough estimates/approximate time frames. Perhaps a single source would be helpful but personally i don't read too much into the figures. In this circumstance, no one can give an exact figure ;)

What I find really helpful is the excel spreadsheet created by some of the members. The document lists some of the cases initiated since 2009, the status of each case including objections etc., relevant comments for each case, formal closing date of cases etc. Maybe you can check this document out to gain further insight on application process if you have haven't done so already?

This has been a sure test of patience :) I don't mind it at all, cuz God is with those who are patient... Insh'Allah, the process will conclude one day and we will find relief from our existing condition :)

Yes, I am aware of the excel spreadsheet, most of them in high objection have a nikkah issues, small events, without ruskhati, and others. I have read carefully on the lists and analysis in varies results.

I understand what you say, but do we have to be waiting for two years (full of testing?) or less. Not only from God, Canada, US, UN, the world, politics are testing us and torture suffering everyday.....

I am too old, lol. :eek: :'(

Have you ordered CAIPS/GCMS notes to see what the reason for the interview is?

Canadian555 said:

Also regarding figures here by members ...they are just estimated timelines based on case timelines other people from ISB VO report here so they cannot be exact or 100% right as they are only a fraction of all the cases at ISB. They are just what they are educated guesses.

If you want some credible timeline data that is from CHC itself then you can have a look at this spreadsheet on this link:

http://www.data.gc.ca/default.asp?lang=En&n=5175A6F0-1&xsl=datacataloguerecord&metaxsl=datacataloguerecord&formid=427337D0-7C36-4FED-8428-C6A63F8C19B3

data.gc.ca is from the Canadian government databases but again all you can do by looking at it is is guess your own timeline because each individual case will be treated based on its own case specifics and may or may not take as long as other cases.

Hope that helps!

They don't write the reason of interview in caips/gcms, only people with rukhsati objection get the clear picture of objection else there is no other way to find out the reason of interview.
