Definitely something is wrong. I do not think they issue any. They issue students visa every week. So, I think they have reached the cap for this year. This is why they are really slow (if not stopped). We really need to know that if it is the case. Giving false hope is really harmful.
There is no quota for spousal/children class.

a very reasonable decision! "mo la darzesh nemire" ;) you are definitely doing the right thing

as others said it too for newly weds being away from your love is the hardest thing that can happen to you! last thing i care about is money at this point ... I miss her so much that sometimes I even think about going to Iran and get stuck with sarbazi for TWO YEARS!!! :-\ at least I see her every night when I come home ::)
haha "mu la darzesh nemire" used to be my favorite quote :)

I cannot distinguish between "target" (which is exist for spouse sponsorship) and the "quota". Even if there is any difference, do you really think they continue working on sponsorship (suppose they meet the target) applications while they have to meet other categorise quota?

Right! No quota, only targets. The more they process, the better it is!

A quota is a limit, a maximum. A target is a goal, a minimum. Each immigration program, in each visa office, has a target. These numbers are posted quaterly. Quotas are somehow imposed by the limited resources visa offices and Immigration Canada are facing, hence the many backlogs everywhere.

At the moment, visa offices are probably very busy with the processing of student visas because of the new session starting in January. Students must get their visa on time. Priorities change depending on the situation.

Welcome :)

unfortunately our officer in charge of updating the chart is MIA (missing in action) since she FORTUNATELY got her visa and is enjoying her husband's company :D I'm gonna see if I can access the chart since I'm on this forum 27/7 and can take care of updating the chart.

Jokes aside, I had a question from you. You said Ankara started processing ur file on Oct 31. How did you find out about this? They emailed you?
