Like in a case like this, did chickie reach 22 mnths yet or pass it? What do they do after this long process and it passes the processing time?
Because my hubby was deported they say they can't go by the timelines because his is a more complicated matter.......(just a fricking excuse so they can hold onto it longer mi say!)

I think Chickie is currently at 16 months since Kingston has had her file. There was some trouble in the beginning with an incomplete application that was returned (I think that's right, I know she will correct me and fill in the blanks when she can). That being said, the poor woman is at basically 2 years since she has started the entire application and I'm sure is not handling this well anymore. She has a 16 month ETA (I believe) because of when she submitted her application, just as I have an 18 month ETA based on when I submitted my app, even though it is now sitting at 22 months for new applicants.

I'm not sure what happens when someone reaches their point...
LMAO they go on a killing spree! Or in the nuthouse!

I said order of receipt because usually on their generic emails they will tell you that your file will be dealt with in order of receipt meaning in order of how they receive them but as we all know this is never true! I think everyones first letter for us all is an F for the file # and the number with the B is for your paper file only. If you watch your notes (if VO updates you will see where all your B# file went to different VOs as per the different stage of processing that you are currently in. I wish I worked at the embassy man.....i wouldn't be sitting here angry that is for sure! But truly this is 2 years of information that I have in my head and I have alot of time on my hands some nights so I just goggle everything and read all about immigration to try to understand.

@ lovindahubby : yes, ECAS only says Application rec'vd... Jan. 23, 2013 ( nothing else.. It does not say medical received )

@ Chickie: although I am still waiting, and there response it sort of generic... I do feel good that they responded, it gives me reassurance that they didn't forget about us... And now I actually know the date they recieved the file (March 4, 2013), because I never got confirmation with an exact date... And that we should wait before re- doing anything, and lastly that they will call husband & e- mail me... Gives me some relief ;)... Hoping to see some movement around March!

Good evening. Carm darling I heard through the great vine you got ppr. For such a great occasion I had to break my vow not ever post here again and come on and congratulate you. Congrats Darling I am so happy for you. Sad to see this place does not change I wish people would stop trying to put censor on others here.
