man man man...The people in Damascus doesn't work.....when they go to work, it takes them 2 hours to drink coffee, eat little muffin and read the newspaper. By then it will be break time. when they return from their break they talk to each other like "whats your plans for the weekend?" and "what kind of dog do you have" , "I had my beer in the sun" blah blah blah.

In a nutshell, people in Phillipe's actually work, thats why they finish things fast.

My wife's permanent residence status is "Application Received" and it's been the same for almost 3 months.

They cant understand that political views is critical in Lebanon. She already lost couple of her brothers in the previous war. Are they waiting until she dies or what?

The situation is critical everywhere in the middle east and this should be a reason why they should work faster.. I agree with the wasting of time thing. Honestly 9 months is too much for evaluating a file... What could possible be done during those 9 months that can't otherwise be done in let's say 6... I paid all the fees in the first place also with the first application and it doesn't seem to have affected my file in any positive way.. Why is it that it takes chinese people 4 months to get a passport to canada while it takes a lebanese, syrian , iranian iraqi or jordanian over 9 months... Honestlyyyy I think there is too much sightseeing going on in Syria and too little work done by those officers.
 


I totally agree with you....I paid the fees in full ($1024), hoping that speed up my app. process, but I don't think this helped me out. They changed the processing time to 10 month.

Is there any way we can know which applications they are currently processing. CIC in Mississauga they tell you how far they are, i.e. processing application received after January 31.

Alright I will tell you why it take that long and its not the process of the file:

The only reason that it take so long is the QUEUE FOR ASSESMENT ....that means that your file is on the side for the a lapse of time and they didnt start the process on the file till they finish the process on the other files that they are working on and that is before your file in the queue.
Logicaly if they have alot of file , the time for us to be on QUEUE is longer
The REAL question is , WHERE IS OUR FILE IN THAT QUEUE AND HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN THAT QUEUE

hi niaradreamin
I'd like to know how long it took to receive the reply from Damascus for your inquiries?
 
hi mehrnoush....they answered to me 24-48h after sending inquiry...
 
whenever I sent an enquiry it took minimum 2 weeks to get an answer
 
for the past 3 weeks we have not heard any news from Damascus , this is so strange and dissapointing :(
 
Sleen said:

Yes because they take like 20 file for exemple and they give them the visa each month then its next month that they will do the next batch
