GOT MY SPONSOR'S APPROVAL TODAY!

I was sleeping when I heard my Iphone's email notification. With my one eye open and the other closed, I checked and to my surprise I saw CIC-Email_Communication on my husband's inbox. I opened it and all I said was OMG OMG OMG.

It is such a relief that know we know that we did not miss any signature and that they actually received our papers.

Now... on to the next stage!

Yippee!

But Dair.....they only update it once a week (on Tuesday's I think), and you DON'T HAVE TO keep checking, let alone every day, once you're registered with the tracker.

Yes, I am learning quickly about this worry stuff.... hahaha I am usually not like this at all. Even my husband is concerned about me because I am normally all smiles and laughs and high spirits. Amazing what affect worry can have on your life and your health!!

I refuse to check ecas more than once a day.. ::) I checked it this morning and there was nothing as of yet. :(

But realistically the CIC website says 42 days...so waiting on and on and on....hahaha

Just got off the phone with CIC-M. They told me to fax them with my info and request to add email. ;D Thats good news...I am going to do that now!!

She also told me that once it shows online that they are processing May 19 I can actually call them and get my decision info.

Over all a good experience... I feel better now ;D

Time for a walk to burn off some energy and hope when I return I hear of more approvals...LOL

@stella0

according to some people in this forum, papers are sent by a special courier or something.
And the letter says they already forwarded it :) So if they did not, they would have said, sorry for the convenience something that it will take for awhile since strike is blah blah hehehehhe oh well, that is my thought :)
