Canadian Dreams said:Seen may people pasting replies received from VOs / CIC confirming time period of 2 years or more, I am clear on this 2 years & want all to be clear. The reply was received from VO & when they say "this office" it is local VO only, although all may not have paid fees to VO since single applicants have submitted fee to CIO but dependents & other fees along with docs are submitted at respective VO but I am sure it is a generalised reply applicable to all.
Now breaking their statement "2 years or more" if Docs/fees are submitted in current month last year i.e. Sept 2010 to local VO then minimum time period is September 2012 but when it comes to "or more" then it is infinite.
Just read it again...2 years or more... so u can't even claim for 2 year... it may be 3 years 4 years 5 years or... it may not come till u become medically unfit. They are not closing it by saying will take 2 years but they are keeping it open for themselves so no one claims...
Just playing with our futures.... I am getting frustrated when i think about the fact that MY FUTURE depends upon few decision makers who may not have been in the system if Govt. had changed.
As they are replying that we may withdraw our applications & we are eligible for refund, I wish if collectively all people in backlogs withdraw their applications not only MI-1 but also those who are waiting since 2004, They will certainlly realise how grave is the situation for people waiting with infinite timelines. If should be "MASS WITHDRAWL"
This will simply throw them out of "business", yes this is business they are doing thinking about their profit all the time & in all the ways.
Imagine a person applied in 2005 waiting for his turn in 2010 & then realises that his application processing will get delayed. He finally applies in Fast Track under MI-1 & get stuck again. Re-applies in MI-2 & finally all is in backlog. Since now we have MI-3 on top priority.... How frustrating.
Certainly we need to come out with something legal against CIC claiming money stuck, time wasted & stagnation of our future....

Immigration department is speeding up the processing of pre June 2010 applications, and trying to process in the 14 months processing period as mentioned in the original immigration website, though they have already crossed 14 months in some case.
They still don't want to revise the schedule period, because they expect to finish the balance applications in the prescribed period.
Cheers and wait for your turn.

Not sure yaar.prmalr said:Dear kdsttl,
thanks for the encouraging words,
i applied in FSW early feb 2010, and application received in novascotia by april30 2010, and withing 120 days i applied in Newdelhi will all the documents complete, and i got the aor i guess that is the second Aor by dec23 that application is in newdelhi, i get the update as application received on april30 2010,
i sent an email to newdelhi and got the same reply (ie for two yrs ) but this time the reps. address went missing,
i saw in your information that address is missing any indication about that?
Thanks again.
thanks a lot KDSTTL, yes lets hope for the best !KDSTTL said:Not sure yaar.
Address missing phenomena has nothing do with actual processing. I came to understand about it, when I received my CAIPS. (My address went missing many times on e-CAS and as per CAIPS immigration department had not done anything specific on my file)
Immigration minister recently mentioned on his interviews and also the STAR news paper also reported that the immigration department is strongly doing the needful to bring down backlogs.
Primary motive will be to clear of the temporary visa application backlogs. Hopefully it will be over in a few days time. Then they will look for permanent visa application backlogs.
Yes, as mentioned they have still not made much change in the waiting period for PR visa process from NDVO. So hopefully, they expect to come back on our files very soon. And the two year letters are frustrating really (but still it can only take our files for another 5-6 months - not more than that).
The more concern we should have is whether they will introduce MI-4, MI-5 etc based on the labour market demand. That can be hard on us.
But let us hope for the best. I still guess, it will be good for us.
And we should not even think like Canada is trying to amass money from PR applicants. We must respect Canada when we dream about Canada. They didn't even face recession, when US went downhill.
