Nothing new. It has been like this for a couple of years now which is one reason why our timeline is up to 26 months.

Inshallah sooner than anticipated
As was mentioned earlier in this forum....someone had their application approved in 10ish months. That being said, I am not expecting a miracle for myself....rather, I was wondering after how long is it reasonable to investigate a little further into what is going on with my application. The application was recieved on July 3rd. I was approved as a Sponsor on September 7th. I am not planning on harassing cic with questions or anything....but was wondering is it okay to enquire after say 8 months from the date the application was recieved.

A few people that I have spoken to have told me about some inviduals having spouses come over in a less than a year or a little over a year....and these individuals were people with Permanent Residents. I'm assuming that being a by-birth Canadian does not really give you any more of an advantage....or does it? (wishful thinking you could say)

From what I have seen, when it comes to immigration being Canadian by birth does not really give you any advantage. Don't expect a miracle as you said but cases from 2011 and 2012 are definitely getting thru a lot quicker compared to cases from 2010 (which is unfair). I'd say in around May-ish order your GCMS notes :)
