Can only than Ottawa for that, I have no idea why it took so long to get there. Probably went via one of those boxes from Manila express. ::)

Don't forget to include a copy of the letter as requested :)

Often they send an appendix A attached with appendix B photograph specifications. Did you get that too?

No, the only things they asked for are her and her sons passports, a copy of the email, and updated contact/present contact info, nothing else.
