My wife does her chest x-ray and doctor's interview tomorrow. I remember reading some comments a few months back where some panel physicians have refused to do just the x-ray and interview as they don't make enough money from it. I hoping that will not be the case tomorrow for my wife. I told her that if they refuse it then just do the whole thing and I will then have yet another complaint to lodge with CIC.

Ugh, corrupt money grab.. wait till she comes here.. and learns about parking meters!

Anyways good luck with her meds! The last step.. I'm going to give the consent forms to my MP's assistant tomorrow morning and I hope it will squeeze a visa out of them! There is a huge family party at the beginning of June and I really want him here to be welcomed by everybody

Let's hope so. That would be a great way for him to land.

It's just when we visit his family in the province.. whewwwee, they would definitely qualify 8) I get the feeling he might find us a bit tame.

Then, put the fridge on the back porch, and set up like you're having a yard-sale but don't!

It looks like things are picking up there. But I think not enough across the world because they still haven't updated their processing times. They are still from January 16.

I can just see the chiefs huddled around a wait time chart projected on the wall of the boardroom, watching the wait times slowly come down. One of them holding a telephone receiver with whitened knuckles waiting to make the call to release the updated processing time webpage when the numbers touch the required values...

Ooooo, the suspense...

Huh, if they release our visas maybe they can make the call.. or are we already statistics? It's too late to save us :-X

We belong to the elite 20% that got screwed by their delays and their mistakes.
