Getting so hacked off about how long this process is taking! Although I'm happy for those who are further along in the process than I am, I think it's very unfair that some VO process visas so much faster than others....surely it should take the same amount of time to process the same types of visas!! :(

Received AOR from VO today. File was transferred to Mexico according to the email, funny we thought the application was in Guatemala all this time.

Anyways, the waiting continues. Ecas still shows "application received" for both the sponsor and the applicant.

smvi please update sheet to show Mexico as the VO.

Good luck to everyone!

Hello! Is anyones application going through Beirut? I was approved to sponsor my husband on Aug.31st so now we are just waiting for them to process his papers. Online it says the wait time is 17 months but I am really hoping someone has had better (shorter) luck or knows of others being processed in Beirut that haven't taken this long!! Thanks

hey Jcaitlin
congrats for d approval, my VO is Ankara n the processing time 4 Ankara is 15 months but most of people got their visa within 9 or 10 months or even 6 months, this time which you have mentioned is refer to the past year applicant n i think it was because of Damascus embassy closure n file transferring. i hope all of us will be reunited with our loved ones very soooon :)
btw you can join this thread : http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/beirut-family-class-applications-sent-to-mississauga-then-beirut-2012-t96496.0.html
