hey there, remember back in May I was asking for a friend of mine who had an interview and his ECAS went to decision made after the interview and they hadn't collected his passport at the interview. Well sadly he was denied and he received a letter in the mail about a week after it went to decision made. :(
Um ok I am soiling myself right now after hearing this...my lord my nerves are on edge.. :eek:

Hi Everyone.

THis waiting is unreal! it should be illegal to keep spouses apart for this long. I will be married two years in February. I hope my husband is here for our second anniversary. It is so expensive travelling to Jamaica every 10 weeks. I was wondering if anyone here knows how much we in Canada are allowed to carry over in our suitcases? I have rented an apartment and I have about 400.00 worth of housewares, including flat screen tv. Does anyone know if it is true you can bring 500.00 worth of items for personal use?
Yes, you can declare up to $500 worth of items when entering JA.

Good afternoon forum family and a big welcome to our newbies. This is the slowest summer and beginning of fall that I've KG in the past few years, time to wake up KG. Let's get those that are close off to CA and make room for the next members. Hang in there maddants, things are going to happen for you very soon my brother.
A little humour......
I went to visit my aging friend right after the time changed . He was busy covering his penis with black shoe polish. I said to him, "You better get your hearing checked - You're supposed to turn your clock back".

SCAM

Just got scammed out of $25. Bought Tiger Woods DVD entitled "My Favorite 18 Holes". Turns out it's about golf. Absolute waste of money! Pass this on so others don't get scammed.


Pregnant Prostitute

Doctor asks pregnant prostitute, "do you know who the father is?" The prostitute said, "if you ate a tin of beans would you know which one made you fart?"


Easy Jet

Paddy calls Easy Jet to book a flight. The operator asks, "How many people are flying with you?" Paddy replies "How do I know! It's your plane!"

Hi everyone,
My biggest fear our sponsorship application being denied. If the application is denied can you appeal? Does anyone know a person who has had the decision changed after being denied?
I think that may be all of our biggest fears, Leshatesha; our minds start wandering to bad places the longer we have to wait in the dark with this process.

It appears that the majority of appeals turn out positively; however, it is another long waiting period. *sigh*

Here is a link to the thread on the forum that discusses the appeal process:

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/all-spouse-appeal-cases-come-here-and-join-us-plz-t87619.0.html

And for some further reading, you can visit this website and read about specific appeals:

http://canlii.org/

Hopefully you won't even have to worry about an appeal but it's always good to be informed!

Got another question...see below



We received your application for permanent residence on August 15, 2012.

We started processing your application on October 17, 2013.

Medical results have been received.

Interview scheduled for May 13, 2013.

A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision.


why might the "we started processing" date change? Is it because the issuing of the visa or the decision made is a different processing stage?
