JUNE 2014 OUTLAND applicants

[rhcohen2014]

I just had a "in process" update to my account last Friday March 20th, says "started processing your application March 17th". Do you have any estimates on how long it will be until I get a "DM" update?? I'm crossing fingers that it's really quick and the mail out happens soon.!

it's hard to say. i would suggest looking at the ottawa spreadsheet and see what recent applicants face for IP to DM. before the holidays, the average time was about 2 weeks, then another 1- 2 weeks for delivery of the visa. since ottawa has slowed, i can't say for sure we will see the same timeframe.

Ok that's still helpful! I can put a realistic outlook on when they might mail out docs to us. So sometime in April hopefully!

Got the IP February 16 and more than a month later no DM. Thanks, Ottawa.

I wonder if the are just randomly changing people's status' to "in process" just to make it look like they are doing something.

So sick of them.i have stopped checking ECAS simply because I can't do it anymore.if I see the words "application recieved" one more time,I'm gonna hav a f***ing breakdown

It's a pile of crap. My husband's FBI check is already expired and the medical test will expire on April 4th. I have a bad feeling they won't extend either because it fits their recent MO of being garbage. If We have to redo that, we are looking at additional time, of course. Probably have this all done in goddamn June by the looks of it.

We bought a house last year but only I could be on the title because he couldn't be on the mortgage due to no SIN or credit history here. For that reason I chose a one year term which came with a higher interest rate. I was thinking he would have everything by now so when I go for a renewal I can add him on. That probably won't be happening.

I don't understand how long an application needs to be "in process" but judging by how long it was just sitting there as received, I'm thinking "a long f**king time."

My husbands keeps telling me that one day he's going to open the mail box and his corp is going to be there. God love him I just can't tell him that it may another 3 or 4 months. Ecas application still showing received.

Haven't they requested you for a Re Medical test as your previous one expired in December !?

Mine will expire on 12th of April next month and still no update just application received Paris visa office I don't know why it's taking too long

Does anyone know about Easter holidays for visa offices ? They gone remain close so more time to wait

No request for new medical.I ordered my notes and they have extended them till Nov 2015. London VO is closed Friday and Monday next week ...Don't know if they will request or not will just have to wait and see.

Thank you guys for replying.

So possibly it means that they would have extend my medical as well hope they do extend it!

 

[taffy7]

I'm sure they have . Cic Just don't inform us .They may ask us to do another when they are ready to issue our corp, but one never knows.Hold tight and don't worry about that yet. If only ecas would make these changes then we wouldn't have to worry or send emails that are not necessary.

Agreed if only the visa offices, CIC would update the ECAS system so we have an idea of what is going on would go along way to helping everyone not to worry so much. As we all know sending them emails is a crapshoot if they will answer back or not.

Yes I emailed in regards to mailing address being wrong, got the confirmation that i sent an email but STILL no response. I'm flying home next saturday so I'll start calling daily and maybe trying to get some information soon.

That has to be one of the good points about having the 2nd stage processed in Canada at least you can call CIC. Hopefully you can get some useful information out of them when you do call.

Having an application abroad we are kept in the dark and can not call the visa office.(perhaps that is visa office dependent?) Have to rely on ECAS (pretty much useless) but gives me something do to for 30seconds each day And of course give a donation to the Government in exchange for GCMS notes.
