Awesome info Steph!

Sorry if I'm repeating myself... Haha, but what was that email?

Oh ya... And was your medical emedical?
manil.mc-extmed@international.gc.ca

Yes it was emedical 8) It's just over a week now, and we had no call backs yet, so that's good ;D

Panel doctor told my wife 3 days before they receive results and forward to embassy.
Based on the emedical literature I've read online, although very sparse, it should be 3 days that they have it.

Having said that... The panel physician is supposed to contact patient if there are any issues.... So I say your all good...

Spreadsheet average a month+ before DM... But that's from remed request.... I wonder how long from actual medical.... It will be interesting to monitor as the latest remeds are processed.

Btw... Thanks for the floating email that's so easy to copy/paste... Haha

Cheers!

More obsession over marriage fraud...

http://www.thestar.com/news/immigration/2013/04/29/marriage_fraud_canadian_immigration_officials_tread_thin_line.html

When will we see something on the processing times?
The obsession just annoys me. Why do they have to waste money on that? Nobody who has anything to do with sponsoring any kind of spouse now can have all these judgements on our relationships. About a year ago the guy at Ria (money transfer) actually tried to warn me that he thinks I'm being scammed. I was so embarrassed. I said that's my Husband and we have known each other in person for years. We own properties together and the money is for our businesses and our shared rent. It was so inappropriate..

You should have punched him.

I get tired of all the mail-order bride jokes.
