Hey everybody:
I know we're all waiting, but I really need to vent here, cause I'm losing it!
They received my application on December 31st 2014, they sent me an AOR in February, then I moved to the GTA from Edmonton. I changed my address with with CIC before it even said "In process", and I even called them to give them the new address. Ecas showed the right address after a couple of days. Then, it said "In process", and on March 11th, it said that they sent the file to EDMONTON! I thought this was a joke. So it took me numerous faxes, calls and emails to have them transfer my file to the GTA. Then on March 27th they sent it to Mississauga, and Mississauga received it on April 7th...And now I have been waiting for a test date. I am so fed up with this whole process and the way it's handled. What the hell is taking them so long to assign test dates? And why do they only give a 2-week notice? CIC is such a joke and so unprofessional, it's not even funny. I think it's the worst bureaucratic crap I've ever been through. I realize that all good things come to those who wait, but there are limits as to what is acceptable and what is not. And when you call the call center they say they're "not allowed to access files if 24-months haven't passed". Excuse me?!?!?! I am paying for this, so don't tell me you can't access my file. I am sick and tired of waiting !
Sorry, but I really needed to vent, as nobody really gets it except you guys!
