hi heidyincnd,


yeah i saw your post yesterday and i was a bit worrie cause you got already the update of your application and it is already decision made so i quickly called cic and a nice male agent had told me that my application was just got approved may 9 that's why i get excited and don't know what to ask already because he had just said all the details regarding my application, and today i open my ecas and i saw the decision made already and they will contact me anytime today or next week maybe..plus the sent me a letter on the mail but i have to wait still...i just felt very very happy and i jumped and jumped and jumped because of what i heared and my ecas both my husband(sponsor) and me(principal applicant) have decision made already..but i dont know if that is only for my first stage approval or both stages already...maybe we got the same result in our ecas!!..

July applicants better get ready cause the immig will now rock your world!!!i know some of you will gonna have a result next week already!!!good luck to all of us!!!immig is working on our applications very hard it's just that, they are not updating but still they are working far already than we expected....GOODLUCK to all of us!!!

Congrats to you with such a great news. I also have my application filed in June 2011 and was hoping to hear from CIC for an interview soon this month. I am kind of nervous and worries as waiting for the result. Could you please share your experiences how long did it take from time you had the decision made to the interview? I guess your case is faster than others who have not baby.

Again, congratulation for both news (PR and baby)

i got approved on April 26th and had the interview today.
I dont think having the baby had a whole lot to do with it. We landed in Halifax , I think that was why it was so quick
Have you got your DM already?
Good luck and I'm sure you will hear soon

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I just checked ecas, not expecting any change, as usual, and then I saw this:

We received your application for permanent residence on May 30, 2011.


We started processing your application on June 8, 2011.


A decision has been made and you will be contacted.

So then I checked my ecas (sponsor) and sponsorship application status says "decision made":

We sent you a letter on May 8, 2012 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

...and PR status says "in process", but once I opened it, it says:

We received XXXXX's application for permanent residence on May 30, 2011.


We started processing XXXXX's application on June 8, 2011.


A decision has been made and XXXXX will be contacted.

OMG I am so excited!!!!!

As what I read from your post, you may have to go through an interview to prove the genuine relationship. That means you should collect all documents to get ready for it from now. You may want to order FOSS note to know what they want to know more about your relationship so that you can prepare better for the interview.
As of time concern, you have to wait until Edmonton office contacts you first (usually can be up to 6 months depending on how busy the office is). After you go through the first interview, they will decide to keep processing your papers for AIP or issue a refusal. That means there is no clear time line here. Many people are scared with this interview; however, many others did say that it was very normal. If I were you, I should get myself really well-prepared for this interview since more or less, it's still the most important step to push up your application to the next step.
That's is my understanding. You can wait for more advice from other members.

2007 2008 2009 2010 2011
Spouses and partners 44,912 44,208 43,902 40,763 38,514

I found these stats on the CIC website. I have always wondered why people that are having there landing say there are 20 and 30 people at the landing office with them?
I seems to me that only people applying inland would be at the CIC office to land. Well now that I have seen this Statistic it makes sense, there are a lot more spouse/sponsorships
then I thought. If you consider the small number of names on Johanna's spreadsheet it is very possible that CIC is working at full speed, but the people that they are processing
just are not on our list. So we have these pause's, people not on the list are getting their DM letters. Just my thoughts. ( does not make me feel any better but.......) I am sure that
a lot of these are OUTLAND but even if 1% were INLAND Johannas list is still missing alot of names.

Thanks for listing the numbers perk. I noticed that the number of applicants were decreasing by year. Maybe many people got frustrated with Inland process then.

As far as I could understand your file has been transferred to your local office for further assessment. Now it depends on Edmonton immigration office to what they do with your application, they can issue you AIP or ask for an interview. Usually the files are transferred because immigration is not sure of relationship or other issues. Now you just have to wait, as it takes longer if file gets transferred. Try to find out an average time for Edmonton office to process transferred file and order FOSS notes to find out what is that caused the file to be transferred. Good luck!!!
