Lonely.... OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am literally sitting at my desk at work shaking and crying for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully no one walks in. :)
I could not be more filled with joy for soneone then i am for you right now, you have been the wealth of knowledge for everyone in the family and helped so many people even tho you were struggling so hard with your own file. You are amazing and a truly deserved family. My heart is racing with excitement for you right now. I am truly truly happy for you in your family.

Come on KG lets keep the good news coming. We have more families to re-unite

Lonely....you guys submitted your stuff Dec 31 right, so just over a month from when you drop it off?

Just something for us to all think about


'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.'
 
Yahoooooo yipppyyyyyy Its about time Lonely. You must be just freaken out. Sassy now we need you out and Maple and any of you old timers. :D

I emailed KG last night and got a email back @ 7:02 am. I am happy they sent me a reply what comes after this part?

Heelllloooooooo everybody,

I am finally back on this very hard to use website. I hardly ever check the email I used on the other imm website Mrs. Sam infected and therefore, didn't see Maple's email till 2 days ago when I was looking for some course documents in my gmail account.

Well, there are over 80 pages of information and must I say there isn't enough time on my hands to catch up with everyone. I therefore, ask for your patience and forgiveness if I am missing certain aspects of your case.

However, on the bright side I see some improvements with a few cases and I have to shout out big congratss to all of those folks who are nearing the end of this long journey.

I was shipped back to GT in ealry January and my application has now entered the complex case of handling a deportation in addition to the regular sponsorship. Still haven't heard anything from POS yet but I am hoping they will give me some sort of news in the coming days or weeks.

Anyway, please keep in touch all of you. I will be checking back on a regular basis now.
 
Confusedandscared!!!

Hey!!! you found us!!! YAHHHH!! We were all worried about you!!! sorry to hear about the deportation.... at least there are a few of us ARC people on here who can help you thru it!!!
 
Lonely - Congratulations!!! I'm so happy for you!! You'll finally be reunited with your family. Your long wait is coming to an end!

......it's only tuesday!!! Hope that someone else can get the PP call this week too!!

Good morning all,

First congrats to lonely, I know how your feeling right now. Kingston seems to be finally on a roll.

Hubby received call on feb 1 to pick up passport, he now has passport in his hands. Ps. pick up document is only in afternoon, he had to wait all day. He was given back all the proof that was sent in with application ie. letters, pics, cards. Hubby will be landing on friday, cant wait to see its been 5 months since i saw him. My ocas was finally updated to say meds received, decision made.

For those needing ARC, my hubby had a 1 yr exclusion order that expired a month after they asked for letter and fee exactly a yr ago. In may he received call saying he doesnt need ARC but he had to pay new fee of $1500 even though he paid his fare to leave on his own. He was asked to bring in the balance $1050 and pick up meds/police check redo. He did RCMP check here and sent it in with application. Permission letter for his daughter was signed my mother and notorized as well as DNA test because his name was added a few yrs ago to birth cert. I tried to cover all the bases so that they wouldn't be sending for more info. We didnot receive any request for anymore info about anything including proving relationship. This may it more stressful cause I didnt know what was happening or why it was taking so long. I think we just got a slow officer.
 
congratulations torontogirl. i am glad this "journey" is finally over for you guys.
Now we need to get the other dusty 2008 files through and we're sailing.

torontogirl - just to be clear. When exactly did you submit your application?
