Finally received a reply from Ottawa Office.

Hello myname,
Following and attached is a letter that is identical to the one that was originally sent to you on May 9th, 2012. Your sponsorship was approved and the application is currently awaiting processing by the visa office in Islamabad. If you require any more information, please either contact the visa office directly using the information below, or feel free to contact the CIC call centre at 1-888-242-2100.

Thank you,
Officer PO

I should probably forget about this whole immigration thing for a couple of months.

I'm sure that ur file is not in Islamabad, its in OTTAWA... BUT DO U THINK THATS A GOOD THING OR BAD?
:S THATS WHERE MY FILES ARE... AND THE LETTER I GOT IT said it was in Islamabad... but now its in Ottawa i m pisst that they have to lie about this...

I honestly can't say whether its a good thing or bad thing because it just started recently and from what I've seen, most of the 2012 cases have been sent to Ottawa, basically all the 2011 cases are being processed in Islamabad, so its kind of a new thing. But there has been no movement in the cases from Ottawa either! Just make lots of dua and be patient is all we can do now.

Hey Folks....

I've got a question that may have already been answered....help a sista' out?! After recieving the all clear to be a sponsor, how long is it before Islamabad ACTUALLY sends out an AOR....do they even send one? If not, after how many months is it okay to check-in to see if my file is sitting on a desk collecting dust in Islamabad?

I'm still waiting for an AOR from Islamabad as well for my husband's case but I highly doubt we will end up receiving it. But I've also seen that a lot of the files are being sent to Ottawa now even though it says Islamabad! Not sure whats up with these immigration policies now!

Congrats you will get passport request soon I like to ask about what additonal documents did you submit for relation proofs .
 
I have a question, it might sound weird but i just want to clear it.
My husband goes by Abidi in all of his documents but for some weird reasons his educational documents and passport has Abedi on it, so we decided to change everything else but the problem is our chats logs, fb screen shots, skype screen shots and hotmail is by Abidi, do you guys think its a problem? should I re print everything?

i would say since all his eductional docs n passports have Abedi then keep it soo.....to avoid confusion or give CIC an excuse to cause prob. I would have stuck with da educational/pp name. The rest is upto u....

mayb some one else can also advise

This is fantastic! Any progress forward is great news! Congratulations. Inshallah you'll get ur PPR very soon!
also Congrats to "nhlrw" you have a similar timeline as me and I noticed you're getting some action so good luck you too!!!

Keep us updated, the success of others keeps the overall morale high
 
I was thinking to maybe just keep them Abedi for now and write a cover letter explaining the situation?
 
to keep them ABIDI for now ***
