Hi
@Chloe10 and
@vaudsama ,
We are indeed still waiting like you are to be moved to the VO or get an AOR2. Currently I'm visiting my husband in the UK so we're at least together which is a HUGE improvement over the past six years that we've been in a long-distance relationship.
We were hoping we would have received a decision in time for us to head back to Canada in the fall and start getting our lives settled, but I don't think that's going to happen now. We feel the same as you - like our lives are on hold and we can't make any decisions to move forward. But, we're trying to make the best of it. My parents and son are coming to London next week to visit so we're going to spend a couple of weeks showing them around and having fun.
Depending on when the decision is made, my husband will likely enter Canada under Dual Intent later in the fall and we'll either stay with my parents or rent an apartment until the decision comes through. We're ready to buy a house, but are a bit nervous to until we get the 100% confirmation that his PR is approved. That's about all we can do for now I guess.
