A quick glance of all the COPRs suggest everything is mentioned correctly, will have to check once again leisurely.
Here are the details of the Visa & COPR:
Issue Date - 2nd Jan 2014
DM Date - 5th Jan 2014
Recvd Date- 9th Jan 2014
Expiry Date- 18th Mar 2014
Above timelines are same for all 3 of us!
One Point to be noted here, not sure how significant and relevant it is to this topic and the issue, the medical validity of all 3 of us (PA, Co-Applcnt and child) as mentioned on the individual COPRs are different.
God Bless All!!!
We were in awe and excitement after receiving the same. The news that we have been waiting and holding to break out to the immediate family members (parents do not know about this process at all till now), at last we told them offering some sweet. Parents felt very happy but there was more sadness on their faces than happiness. Being parents they were possibly feeling sad that their son who lived with them for 45 years is going to go far off permanently leaving them in the homeland.
We had drawn big plans for them which will have to worked on after landing. We wanted to see that smile on their faces and the proudness of sharing the news to all the relatives (ain't it what gives them immense satisfaction, proudness and raises their ego levels with the relatives) that they are going to visit their son's family in Canada - first one to be going abroad in the whole of extended family!!! Waiting for those days......
This is the first and biggest gift I have ever given to my wife - have to see her eyes and face and her thoughts - this is enough in this life. THANK GOD, THANKS MUCH, YOU ARE JUST AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have no hard feelings for all the testing you put us all through - makes sense in the end.
Friends - please be patient - you will get your big day too - please do not get disheartened, keep moving on in life, BE POSITIVE - this helps a lot in moving forward! whether you get it or not, it has a reason. So, remember - whatever happens is for our good!
