Hi : Thank you for the calculation , but how do you read it ?
I dont know what is ur specific problem in reading and understanding of the results. Normally, you see 3 estimated measures. For example, to use TtP (the period between when an application was sent to Ankara/Damascus and the time that passport was requested) you can see both overall estimation and the estimations based on the year one has applied. Now, the TtP overall estimation is 352 days, but 95% of us could expect it to last 317-387 days.
For 2011 applicants, the same period is expected to be higher than 2012 (and later) applicants; 342 vs 275 days.
The overall estimation is more accurate because statistically it's median survival but yearly estimations are mean survivals. I am still available if you have any further questions.

guys my wife got her passport from the agency yesterday and they send her all the pictures that i gave them.
one more bad news: just from this morning in iran, the airline ticket prices gone up f.k crazy. my wife was telling me when she called the agency this morning, they told her with Turkish airline from Isfahan 2 Toronto it cost her almost 5,000,000 tuman. they told her they didn't know the prices will go up until this morning. it's a f.k stupid system in Iran.
but thanks God that i got her ticket through the agency here in Canada. it cost me $915 from Tehran 2 Calgary

Hi everyone,
In case you are wondering about targets and geographic regions, You can read the following link.
It indicates that in 2012, the total target for the family class was 37000 from outside of Canada and 7000 from inside. The total number of all classes was 255000 an increase from the 210000 from 2011. It also indicates that each geographic region has certain targets with the Africa/Middle East region increasing its FSWeP targets. It notes that the Dammascus office is significantly increasing the parents class visas.
Let's hope they also increase spouse visas in Ankara. It seems like they are on a role judging by this week's visas. Let's hope target increases in 2013!
Here's the link:

No you should not. It is absolutely normal. It takes time that ur status changes, and it will change usually few weeks after u received the email of PPR.
