Hello May applicants,
I've been reading the posts here and I wish you all the luck.
I am sponsoring my husband and we both live in UAE. We sent our application on May 22nd and we received an e-mail today, July 17, stating that CIC in Mississauga has received our application. I hope we get the approval soon. We chose Cairo as our Visa office because the overall processing time is less than the Abu Dhabi one, but I guess it depends on the case.
Good luck and I hope you all get good news from CIC this week!
