Hi All !

It's very disheartening when the processing times keep going up :(

Congrats to all that have had an AOR for January!! It is inspiring to hear all the stories :)

My app was received on Jan 20, but still nothing yet. But I check this forum regularly, it is so helpful and I feel less lonely :) :)

I kind of have to trust that everyone will let me know when their status changes, and I can usually update ASAP. Hopefully I'm not missing anything, but t be sure, hopefully people Dont mind reviewing their line in the spreadsheet to ensure I have it right!

:)

My fingers are crossed that our file gets transferred...Seattle seems to be processing so much faster than buffalo! Fingers crossed.

Luckily I get to visit my husband again this weekend... I'm so excited. We're seeing a Rays baseball game Saturday night...but I could care less what we do just as long as I get to be with him... Once again these 52 hours together will be short but sweet!
Enjoy the ballgame and your time together.

I don't mean to be a pest :D but I think you might have missed these. I also hope people won't be offended by me volunteering their information to you (although public in this forum).

that would be great progress considering moving from Jan 25 to 18 happened in 3 weeks, then from 18 to 17 in 1week. They will eventually go to 2011. ::)

Ok I'll add these... Like I said I trust each member to update me but if anyone else catches it that's great.
I was sure I got goodya, maybe it didn't save properly...either way I'll make the change now

Thank you

CIC/government is also basing their immigration policy for spouse visa on the statistics for Canadian marriages and divorces. The divorce rate is about 50% of those who marry, while in India the rate is less than 1%. In general, Indian people think differently about marriage (like very positively) than Canadians. In Indian society, there is the expectation that everyone must marry and there is no concept (or "choice") of divorce.
So you woke up haha, direct all your energy towards CIC, the government for the holly goat sake
