Got sponsorship approval today from Ottawa Pilot (6.30am PST if anyone's interested). So so happy. Wow. What a good start to the weekend, and some downtime from obsessively checking emails.

Grats to everyone else getting approvals lately and hopefully the rest will follow shortly.

Yay! :D

Hi EveryOne
I AM VERY HAPPY. I was worried alot.

I called CIC today (September 28, 2012) at 11.45 AM and they told me that My application was approved 40 minutes ago. That is such a coincident. They told me they did not sent me email but they will send me the approval letter by mail and i should receive it in 2-3 weeks.

Please update the Spread sheet for me.

Congrads Woffles and to all those who have been approved, I am getting antsy myself. Must be such a relief to be over with stage 1.

Nothing to do about it :( The website says they are still working on the July 12 group applications. I've been exploiting my Netflix account because I still got another couple of months. You are so close. Just be patient. :)

Congrats Woffles and Kamar - I have updated the spreadsheet!

Would love to be able to call CIC myself, but am living outside of Canada- so looks like I will have to be patient! I have a sneaking suspicion they will be sending me snail mail too, so will have to wait another few weeks.... As long as it gets looked at eventually, I am not too worried!

Thanks everyone :) It definitely is a relief. Just going to try and forget about it now for the next couple of months. It's good to finally feel like it's getting somewhere though!

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

And thanks so much bagelbagel :)

Hi Bagel,

If you want to call CIC try............... 001-613-944-4000 then 1,2,1,1,2,1,0 the hard part is to time the call so that you get through. I called a couple of minutes before 8am (Canadian Eastern Time) as you have go through the prompts. I was able to get through each time but holding times varied. Remember the time change if that's happening this weekend.

Good Luck
