Thought my story might give a little encouragement.
My partner was approved as my sponsor in December 2010.
Seoul visa office received my application on January 24th this year.
My status became "in process" on April 7th and I received a letter asking me to send my passport.
Passport delivered with visa on May 9th.
I will be landing in Canada on May 31st.
This seems remarkably fast and we are very grateful to the embassy. I attached a cover letter with my application, politely asking us to be considered for expedited processing in light of our circumstances (separated due to our premature baby being born while my girfriend was visiting family in Canada). Thanks to the embassy in Seoul, I will now be joining my family in Winnnipeg.
Around 5 months from application for sponsorship to receipt of visa.
