i dont understand why chc-islamabad takes so much time if we read about fraudulent cases mostly they are from india, Philippine, inshort other parts of asia rarely read any case from Pakistan even then indias cases solved in 3-4 months time frame and for us it is for 2-2.5 years i mean what are we suppose to do wait for them to approve us to live our life honestly i dont understand this process i mean how many application would b filed in a month if they want they can complete monthly files and we get out of this really frustrating situation in few months :(

ritenow i hate my life :(

AOA
well i dont know abt chc how many case cic send to chc but everyday cic is reciveing about avg 280+ files per day.
 
After 2 weeks this is what my MP had to say:

Greetings.

Please find the update as below :

- Approved on Sep 28, 2012
- Queue for initial review
- In Islamabad processing time is 32 months
- No Bring Forward date as of now.

LIKE THAT HELPS! I am kinda glad though that I sent additional proofs before the initial review (my trip info + pics etc.) I am planning another trip in Feb now and by the looks of it, they won't be touching my file anytime soon so I might update them again.

Whatever! That was my rant of the day. Happy Friday everyone!

I would say its depend on ur luck. My sister and I applied for our husband together and everything was same. Her husband is already here and I still don't know anything about my case :-(

Regarding updating your case. That is really up to you. Some people update their cases others never did. Is there a benefit in one or the other not really. (unless your in interview queue).

Regarding how fast your case is going to be approved, there is no standard time. It depends mostly on your luck and hopefully caring visa officer. Lastly 10% is how you portray your case (pics, chat logs,phone calls,gifts etc) but mostly 99% cases are genuine and they (chc) know that.

What happens in Ottawa, basically it collects dust. No work is being done whatsoever, it is a holding ground to be transferred to online database in Islamabad, where it sits until a visa officer decides to open your file.

Aoa,

Today CIC requested additional forms IMM0008, IMM5406, IMM669 and one other form which is for Pakistani nationals. Does anybody know why they are requesting this info again? I have already submitted these forms when I applied :S
 
Wsalam

Yes, nothing to worry about. They have created a tendency to request these forms when they open the applicants file for initial review. It's just to update their info since CHC has a long holding date (regarding files) they think changes may have occurred....
