About the emails, I guess CEM is still inconsistent. From what I heard of, people getting a "real" rep like lawyers, they won't get any update until the rep says something, this is why I assumed the same thing for sponsor as being "representative".

Interesting. I have never heard of that but people have apparently found a Twitter account for CIC. Neither are listed on their website. That is a red flag for me. These medias can easily be crafted by individuals who may want your personal details.

Thanks CJG, I had not seen anything on here about skype interviews so was very skeptical. For CIC to do something like this it would have a lot more fanfare.

You gotta be joking?
Can you read? I mean judging by your writing...I'm wondering if you filled yours in right?

Anyway, I did think previous posts people we're being too hard on you...but I can admit when I'm wrong.
