INLAND APPLICATIONS 2013

[CANUSA31]

So friends, is this the week we finally move away from the imfamous October 8th, 2012!?!?!?

Odds are probably not haha, but in a few hours we will know! Wouldn't it be nice to see like December 5th or something huge like that.

Although it seems like in the 2012 thread there are a decent amount of DM's coming through, there are very little if any AIP's. Maybe they are clearing out the DM's before they get to the AIP's?

Enough ranting from me, I hope all is well with everyone.

Sup Brotato Chips,

I don't think it will be moving anytime soon to be honest. There haven't been any AIP's in the past month for 2012, but tons of DM's, so I would agree they are clearing applications first then moving on to give AIP's. I don't think we'll see any progress until August though, it tends to slow down in the summer. But hope for the best and plan for the worst!

@ causa31
that would be great news it might not change as yet tho....but I strongly believe when it does its gonna go past October 25 that is when the new rules came into effect. I guess some might hv not thought of it that way but I also think that post October 25 2012 to now there was a decrease in the # of spousal sponsorships and this is good news for us as our apps will be processed faster. in addition I think that a high percentage of 2013 applicants will received AIP and DM together.

Sad to say but 2013 applicants have a long wait ahead of them. Many of you guys won't be getting any updates until late this year. Sit and hold tight

I agree but the good thing about it is that there will definitely be a light at the end of the tunnel and knowing that is kinda good enough to help me get through I got a gym membership a few weeks ago and am already seeing improvements in my upper body area as a guy dt makes me feel good .....lol

I just want the AIP/OWP, could care less about how long the entire thing takes (unless its like 3+ years haha), just let my girl work and we're both happy.

Isn't the 1st stage the 'easier' one to do anyways, it's mostly about the sponsor and red flags.

We have AIP, applied Feb 15/2013.

Hi Dawlex! It all went so fast fir you guys, we're so jealous! Hahaha,
Please share your interview experience... And why did they transfer you? Does everybody get transfer? Im also inland, and i dont know if not been transfer yet isa good think or bad thing...
I know your hubby was out of status for 2years or more, how did you guys deal this matter with the visa officer? (ive been out of status for 8months before applying) what about taxes? How did u do to add him as person incharge without a sin? Thanks in advance for you answer... It will be a big help.
Anyone else whi can help is welcome
God bless!

Ok I've been gone for a while and I come back and all I hear is that our 2013 inland applications are going super slow?! So how long can we expect to be unemployed and bored outta our minds?

We applied in February man I just want to get my OWP :-[

 

[CANUSA31]

^
I applied on January 22nd, with a February 15th AOR. I'm hoping to get my OWP by mid October/November 1. Shoulda have originaly got it end of July/August but now hoping for a few months later.

Oh my goodness yeah that's a long time so that's because the strike I'm assuming?
It certainly isn't easy to live off one income and having a dog that needs to be taken care of too.
I have already lost my mind a few times not being able to do anything but "the ordinary duties at home type if deal" so I sure hope they pick up the phase and let us work again!!

 

[CANUSA31]

Tell me about it! plus I go back to school in september (im the Canadian) so we will have no income for X amount of months. I could be wrong and my girlfriend says im pessimistic haha but I cant see it being before October. I hope they get their butts moving soon.

Ouch that I can see that being stressful! Yah they sure dont make it easy. I am going to be one happy girl once I receive my PR time to kick up the feet with a cold beer in my hand lol! Hopefully you guys get your OWP by the time you're going to study

we are struggling as it is right now with all the bills and living expenses and I feel helpless not working! -.-

 

[CANUSA31]

Yeah this whole process really stinks.
another frustrating part for us, is we live in Edmonton and the Vegreville office is 1 hour away. Somedays I want to drive there and tell them to start working faster haha. but that will probably end up with a deportation.
I'm with ya on the cold beer + about 10 =)
