So far, just checked e-cas and this is what it says...
Next to my husband maddants name

Sponsorship application status...in process then clicked on this and it says...We received your application to sponsor xxxxxxxxxxxxx's on January 23, 2012.
We started processing your application on April 18, 2012.
We sent you a letter on June 8, 2012 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

Under Permanent Residence Application status, it says...application received and what it says when I clicked on this...We received xxxxxxxx's application for permanent residence on January 23, 2012.

Maddant's then recieved e-mail
Subject: RE: Sponsorship Application
Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2013 15:35:51 -0500
From: re-kingston.immigration@international.gc.ca

This application was received in Kingston on 26 June 2012. Applicants can check the status of their case on the CIC website by clicking on Client Application Status.

On February Following an initial review, this application was queued for interview and is currently awaiting its turn for scheduling, based on the date it was received. Interviews are normally conducted at the Canadian High Commission in Kingston. Once an interview date is scheduled, the applicant will receive an appointment/interview letter approximately four to six weeks before interview.

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.

I also order the notes on February 11, 2013 to see if this could tell us any more, so we will be waiting to see what it says. so we will be waiting for notes and hoping Maddants will hear from them soon on his interview date. We have interview questions down pat and sure maddants will get through this with flying colors.

One question I have in mind is something you may not have come across...
First of all, I am native American woman with native status card and have duel citizenship for U.S. and Canada. I can live in either country as a citizen. When I filed to sponsor, I had to list my birth county as U.S. Since I was approved as sponsor, I was wondering if this could be something they will ask maddants at the interview? Also, since I was approved already, is this not going to be a concern? Or am I worrying for nothing. LOL I was just wondering if they would ask him about my duel citizenship during the interview.

lets put it this way, its your husband immigration wouldn't ask your husband anything he doesn't know, and if there is stuff that is on your application your husband doesn't know, then you have a problem, at the end of the day your husband suppose to know everything about you whether its good or bad. the forum has a section on question they ask maybe you should go through it.

Thanks I will check it out. I am glad Maddants and I know everything about each other and he has copy of application. He knows about my duel citizenship and wish he could have that too LOL!. It is just sometimes I get questioned on it and have to find myself explaining how it has to do with treaties with Canadian and American government. Sometimes I fall through a loophole because of it.

i know what you mean but if they had a problem with it they wouldn't allow you to sponsor him. dont worry just make sure he is not nervous at the interview and that your rehearse a few questions togehter

In process is always a positive sign! I'm inclined to believe that since you logged onto eCAS using your UCI number it may indicate the day your sponsorship application went in process in Mississagua. Can you log on using hubby's information and F applicant number? That may give you an indication of where things are at in KG. I say 'may' because Kingston is notorious for not always updating eCAS.

Good luck!

Good evening Akiikwe, thanks for poking your head in!

I hope Maddants receives a phone call from KG next week letting him know when his interview is going to be. And hopefully the GCMS notes will let you know why the interview is happening so he can prepare himself for the big day. We are all here to support the two of you through your journey and we look forward to the day Kingston calls Maddants for his passport!!!!
