So if CIC started processing my pr papers in Feb 2011, when do u think they will be done with the first stage? Cuz if they are only processing applications in Oct now I got a long wait.

Hi LY, so I just checked it again and the last chart update is on pg.398. No worries. It is just nice to see the chart. I know that you said you are going to do it right until the end but maybe you can pass it on to someone else? Any volunteers? Although, I cannot see anyone being as diligent as you with it. LOL

No jump today. That is 2 times of no jumps in the last 3 weeks. That sucks!

I know many companies that only allow a certain amount of people on vacation at once. CIC should also do this. I mean, in 1 week they have not even advanced 1 day? Ridiculous!

Lotionice, some people that sent there application after yours have been approved. You should definitely call CIC today or tomorrow for sure. I would be dying to know if I were you.

yes. i know. that's why i am so anxious!
i don't know if it's becoz i am in Quebec, got extra procedure with CSQ or whatever reason.
in fact i've called them few days ago, they said everything on progress, no worry, and if i don't receive the letter by mid-nov, i should hv call them again..
at that time, i thought "what? mid-nov"!!!!
hoping by the end of august?!
 
Hi all!

I've landed yesterday afternoon in Halifax and now can call myself Permanent Resident! The process took approximately one hour and a half as first we had to wait for about 40 mins while they processed payments and then everybody (appr 40 people) were invited into a conference room. Immigration officer made a short speech ab PR rights & obligations and then they started calling us one by one to answer 3 questions and sign the paper. I've been there with my 3.5 y/old son who is a very active boy so by the time we left I was exhausted by all the waiting, which made me think that immigration is all about waiting, even at the very last stage ;)

Otherwise it feels strange being done with immigration, but in a good way though ;D

Good luck to all who's still waiting!

Latvian,

I have to say that I am really happy for you. I hope that now you can start a "more normal" life with you family in Canada. Congratulation and I wish you the best.

Cheers
