So after 17 months, today I heard from CIC for the very first time. They are asking me to do my Medical. I am very excited that this ridiculous process is finally coming to an end. My wife, who is sponsoring me never received anything from CIC. I assume she is approved as sponsor, because why would I otherwise get asked to do the Medical? I went through my copies of our application again and found the culprit: We had a typo in her Emailaddress.
Now, I thought it might be important to update her Emailaddress so we actually now what's going on and receive correspondence from CIC. After 30 min on the phone, I finally got to an agent and had to hear that the agent of course cannot update an Email address on file. Why, why should be things at CIC so easy and straightforward. So just to update this Emailaddress I now need to fill out a form and send it in?! What the f..? When I thought they can't get more incompetent and inefficient, they are still able to raise the bar just a few inches higher. So the way I experience CIC's work attitude, it will now take like 6 months to update this Emailaddress??!! Did anyone update their Emailadress before? How long did it take?
I hope I will never ever have to deal with the federal government again after this process. How can you run a governmental department like this...
I am suprised that I don't need to print the form and send it via a mailman on horse....riding to Ottawa..phhhh
. Yeahhh!, please update the spreadsheet, Sophie!
