If they were suppose to go back to my file in sept then why haven't they asked for the ARC?? that is 90 days since June
that is what I mean, when you think they should go back they don't.......like ours they should have gone back to it in May since they asked for the RPRF in March but we didn't hear from them again until August.......it is like WTF? Just when you think you have them figured out..........they throw curve balls lol

I really hope and pray we all hear some news in November.

Carm I wish I could help but I never used either as hubby uses his Canadian bank card sorry I hope someone could help you out. Did you try to call money gram in Canada and tell them whats going on?

That's garbage. All he needs is a drivers licence or passport. I've never heard of that. Tell him to try another location.

Yea that's what I told him. I thought it didn't sound right because both passport and his ID have the same address.

i never had this problem before using money gram........ try and get him to go to another money gram and see if they give him any problem at all.....i think that is stupid for them to do that.

One day soon
Hey Everyone!!!

It seems everyone is hanging in there. Thank God for all the amazing support here!!Welcome newbies!!
So happy to hear the strike is over!! Hope Nev is having a wonderful time!! And Chickie ,Maddants and the other oldies get out of here already :-* (lol) xo
Just wanted to give a small update. My husband and I re-did our medical and criminal checks in May without prompting from Immigration hopeing this would help things along but still we have heard nothing :( on the second of November it will be 19 months since we started this process so I decided to try and write my Mp last week not sure if it will help but they did say they would look into our case and contact me next week so imma keep my fingers crossed and will hopefully be able to come back here with a good update.
I am praying for all u wonderful people here that ur dreams will soon come true xo

Good morning. Glad to hear from you, long time no talk! Yo we are really trying our best to get out of the way but something doesn't want us to go yet lol Good to hear about being proactive on your meds and police check, at least when they call they will have nothing to stop you from hearing PPR.......keep us updated as to what your MP says everyone seems to get a different type of answer from them......I got ahold of mine in August and all she did was call CIC Mississauga and get an update from GCMS notes which I already knew anyways lol praying you hear something good from them, we really need some morale boosts up in here!

Good Morning All

Can you please update the spreadsheet to show medicals received. That was update in May 2013. Thank you.

Also, I have sent away for my notes, do most people see any movement within the first 6mths?? Its been that long now and I just came back from JA so I had the papers signed and sent off. Would like to know if there has been any movement on the file. Seeing as Kingston doesn't update the website, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone. I will be married on January 10. My hope is to have most of my application completed with the exception of out marriage certificate and wedding pictures. Is it wise to have my fiancé complete his medical and criminal check in december?

good afternoon my friend.....LOL i wish i had an answer for you about the ARC but as you know Kingston don't ever tell us anything so I have no idea.....the bring forward date was Oct 13th but we still haven't heard anything yet. I emailed them last week with a case specific email (thought i would try something different!) but no answer so far :( My thoughts are that they will ask for the passport next as that is the only thing left and then extend the meds but when that is going to happen is anyones guess! How are things for you? Keeping the faith i hope.....its a long process but there is a silver lining at the end.
