Hey guys, just joined this forum, although i've followed it for a while. You guys have been a great help to me in submitting my applications, so I want to thank everybody for their advice.
I was hoping to be added to the spreadsheet if that was possible.
My application was received on March 15th 2013
It began being processed on March 27th 2013
I sent my OWP separately about a month later
I sent my Police Certificate, but not a Medical along with my app.
I am from Manchester, UK and I am being sponsored by my Canadian girlfriend of whom I met in the UK. I was on an IEC working holiday visa which expired on June 11th 2013, but I'm led to believe that I'm legally here under 'implied status' due to me submitting a PR application. Luckily, I have a stable job so I wouldn't consider myself in a huge rush to get my PR. I am only 22 and I miss some of my family back home. I know flying out of the country is a stupid thing to do, as i've heard it can jeopardize my application. Does anyone know if the same applies to crossing the border into the states? Me and my girlfriend feel trapped. We were hoping of driving down to Florida for a holiday.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sean
