I'm with you on the anxiety bit! I've been checking my email at least three times a day to see if we've heard anything about sponsorship approval. Nothing yet, but I'm sure it will happen this week or hopefully next. I just hope we have someone who's on the ball looking through our application. My daughter hasn't seen her father in nearly 5 months and I just want this to be a speedy process, we all miss each other terribly.

Fingers crossed for a smooth, speedy process for everyone...and me! ;o)

keep strong guys. i know the wait is killer. i would do the same thing checking my email every 5 seconds. till i said im going to die of anxiety or something. so decided not to check for a day and give it time. the next day checking for another thing i find it there that i had received it the day i didnt check. and just knowing that all the checks are good and they didnt send back the application is the biggest stress reliever ever. good luck to all.

Well going by the website.... 42 days will take me exactly to June 30. So I am not expecting anything before then. Should we hear before then it will be a wonderful surprise.

Congratulations to all those who recently received sponsorship approval.
Its tough for me to keep myself from checking my email every second. Just keeping super-busy or I will simply go crazy from the anxiety!

Isn't it a killer!! Man I am going to end up with ulcers from this!!

Tonight I have decided to go to something completely new for me.... stock car races. My friend and her bf go all the time and she raves about it. She knows I am just about losing a screw from this process so she invited me to go with them.

Should have seen my daughters face at the prospect :( ... LOL but I figure we can't knock it till we try it.

Tomorrow is car wash for kids programs where we live. Water, soap and BUBBLES!!! ;D :p

I am SO thankful for distractions!!

Sorry, Been a bit busy with work so i haven't had time to post as I wanted to. Sponsorship on my case was approved on June 13th. File has been forwarded to Buffalo. Haven't gotten an AOR or ECAS update on that yet, but I will keep checking and let you guys know when I do. Step One complete!

The next correspondence typically is with you. Mississauga would be sending a confirmation that you have been approved as sponsor. The change of address will be important to notify to the canadian embassy in Pakistan (assuming that is the VO processing your husband's visa) but may be it is OK to wait until the file has been transferred to Pakistan. Typically, the step of the application, which is sponsorship approval takes about 40 days. My suggestion would be to contact Mississauga and ask about your application.
