Got an email from KGN today but almost wish I hadn't.
Dear Madam
Thank you for your email.
This Family Class application was received by our office on 24 September 2012 after being forwarded by Case Processing Centre Mississauga. This application is currently pending initial review, after which we will contact the applicant directly to advise the outcome of the review and any next steps.
We are striving to make our processing of Family Class applications as efficient as possible. Processing times are calculated from the date the application is approved by Case Processing Centre Mississauga, after which it is sent to the visa office for further processing. For individual cases, actual processing times may vary depending on the complexity of the application and the number of new applications received by the visa office. Kingston has been subject to processing delays due to an increase in case load and reduction in resources.
Applicants can check the status of their case on the CIC website by clicking on Client Application Status. For actual processing times of permanent resident applications in a Kingston for the last 12 months applicants may refer to our website, www.jamaica.gc.ca, for more information about processing times.
Regards
DOES THIS MEAN IT HAS BEEN SITTING ON SOMEONE'S DESK COLLECTING DUST FOR THE LAST SIX MONTHS?
