Let's be honest. This truly is a Kingston lottery. They do not go in order of receipt because if they did, people who applied after me would not have already gotten through as they have. As well, look at chickie, her file is literally just sitting there at this point. She hasn't even been advised WHY it's still sitting there, just that it is. Some notifications would be nice: “Sorry for the delay, but we are investigating your file further as new evidence has come up.” Or “Your file has been placed in queue for VISA issuance or denial. You will have a response within 60 days.”
In reality I know I am asking too much from them
My application is straight forward... never married, no children, never left the country and never applied to leave the country, lots of evidence of courtship prior to marriage, and here we are at over 8 months in Kingston with no response. Straight forward doesn't always mean fast I guess. lol
