[bankerguy]

i'm a sept 18th applicant..today they are processing July 22nd applicants...

thats about 2 months away... which seems like a lot when they are processing 3 days worth of apps a week

BUT...... it could be worse..what if i was a Dec 2013 applicant... etc... its all relative...
I cant imagine how pissed people who applied after me are feeling...

Hi everyone,

After my husband received his approval for sponsoring me yesterday, I received the email approving my permanent residency application this morning... followed just an hour later by the DM email saying that the Etobicocke CIC office will contact me shortly for finalizing my PR. They also said my OWP got approved and that it will be send to me soon.

I guess I just have to wait for my OWP to come in the mail as well as my landing letter.

Our application is July 23rd, so not what is said on the CIC website today.

I wish everyone the best, it's finally moving and coming

Yes. If you paid it already, the original receipt should be enough.

thank you computergeek

For me I have waited exactly 11 months for them to give me AIP, DM and Landing, so I totally understand how you all feel. Being left alone and don't know what is going on inside CIC.

Actually to have everything done in 11 months is not bad even it takes a while for stage 1. From the CIC website the quickest posted timeline I saw was 6 months for stage 1 but another 8 months for stage 2. At least they are doing stage 2 co-currently with stage 1.

I am so glad for everyone with good news, seems like they have a schedule running now.
That said, I still feel like they should prioritize giving AIP for people waiting for so long, instead of focusing in DM.
AIP would put my life and other people's life back on track right way, I would rather receive AIP now, then AIP+DM 3 months from now.

I do agree, I just really want AIP and OWP. Just being able to work would make my life so much better right now! Giving my days purpose, and helping with our financial situation would be a huge lift of spirit for me.

I'm a September applicant already waiting for 9 months, and not sure how long is going to take to get to my file...
It's one of the most frustrating things I had to deal with all my life.
The process itself is already hard, with this huge delay they created it just got crazy!
I'm seriously just hoping it doesn't pass the 12 months mark.

I hope so. I hear you. We almost have the same timeline. This inland processing is so emotionally draining and challenging. I have some financial responsibilities back home as i was tied up with a mortgage so i really wish we get the good news soon. Really... This is very frustrating.. But just be positive... I really hope it comes out very soon.

I still don't understand why they are pushing so hard for us to apply outland. We're still going to be citizens, it's just a matter of time, either way. I can't believe they really think it would be in our best interest to be away from our spouses, who are our loves and our lives, for so long. It's very callous and insensitive. I don't care how much longer it takes, I don't want be away from my husband for any length of time, period.
