[davidalastair]

oh very helpful, i was wondering about that same thing actually..hmmmm.

thanks!

and also thanks Davidalaistar for voicing that out..

No problem!

Also, so great to hear good news from others recently!

Went to MPs office last week, they were very helpful! They said they would look into the status of our application, and get back to us within 5-10 business days.

They said that the estimated wait time is calculated from the time the visa office processing the application receives it.

Dan,

Your wife did her remedical on Sept. 20, am I right?
Just trying to estimate how long it would take since my husband did his last Oct 16, and results were forwarded on the 20th.
I am not sure when to start emailing them for follow-up. I am still waiting for my second set on GCMS, maybe that will help me figure out what is happening to our app. :

Btw, I guess you mixed up the numbers on the dates on your sidebar timeline ;D

But anyway, I am really happy for you

THat's AWESOME Dan! Yay! Congrats! How exciting! Yes, about time!

Interesting that ECAS still says "application received". I won't get so hung up about the fact that ours says the same i guess!

 

[Steph C]

Thanks Steph

yes for sure, if the mountain doesn't come to us.. I'm predicting big snow this year, there was none last year and we are due! Last big snowfall for us was in '96

Congrats also to Jhou! Sorry I missed you earlier..

 

[JGM613]

Congrats JGM! When we got my PPR, my husband didn't get a copy. Haha.

Seeee, told you you'd get your PPR soon!

Ha! Right...seeing other April apps getting to the next step and nothing from Em on our file for so long....was just running low on hope I guess...something so simple as an acknowledgement is ohhhh soooo meaningful in this crappy process!

My wife just got her PR card. Took over 2 months to get here. So don't worry about withdrawals from waiting... There is always more waiting...
