cic.gc.ca
i very clear about step 1 ( 66+ days) and step 2 ( 13 months )meaning step to is when file reaches damascus about 2 to 3 weeks after ur approval of sponsorship ...so feverdreams it should be around 27 october for you thats when u start counting.
my dearest friend ramzi ramz :D how does it feel to be done with all of this ****, i bet it feels pretty good , lots of love to you and youre husband

I said "IF" because I am not sure that they still send application to Damascus due to current situation in Syria.

The email was reply to my email which I asked for current application status.
thanks for ur clarification :) yeah i understand what u meant now, but it looks that Damascus still receives files....we'll wait and see i guess....good luck!!

I think u should start counting from oct 11 that they started processing ur application not from the day u handed in ur application. Wardeh case was very extra ordinary since it took them a year to complete the first step!

First step was around 40 days (now its 68 days)
Second step was around 10 months (now 13 months)
don't rely on the dates from e-cas; follow them and whenever the date changes then u know that they continue to update ur info = working on the file...i don't think anyone waited 1 year for sponsor approval; Wardeh case was in the timeframes for both step 1 and step 2 - that's what i remember and she will confirm :)

I think the counting is an irrelevant thing relevant Damascus. We saw cases finalized in less than 6 months and also saw cases which took more than 15 months to finish. So there is no rule. We have to wait. Simply we have to wait hopefully!
