Congratulations surrey11,
I believe the officers in Sydney are split into groups based on the local processing office. The applicants from Vancouver are processed much faster than all other local offices.
Yes you right ,
I notices that applicants here in Halifax were processed pretty fast during March, April, and May 2014.
But now its getting slow again.
I think CIC get back focusing in finalizing the huge backlog , since most of them are since 2011, and 2012 so CIC forced to complete their application before the 36 month deadline, which around the current time.
Or maybe CIC speed up the processing during the months before approving Bill c-24 ,in order facilitates the approval of the bill .......
