Hello,

Another question:

I have just seen a third line posted on the Permanent Resident Application, now it states as follows:

1. We received XXXX application for permanent residence on January 21, 2016.
2. We started processing XXXX application on March 15, 2016.
3. Medical results have been received.

Looks like an officer has been assigned.

This is good news?

From what I read in other forums, decision made means they have already issued the visa and the passport must be on the way back to you. Hopefully u will be receiving ur passport really soon. Congrats!! Soo happy for you. Now I just pray me n others get PPR soon.
Thanks Samji2. They never send email or mail to inform something? Because when i click on decision made nothing display. Only we received application
2, we start application on and medical received.

Thanks again.

I am not sure if they send an email or not since I haven't reached that step. From personal experience I don't really know. Maybe someone else in the forum can answer this question if they send email or not.

This looks good. Looks like someone is working on the file but can't really tell you how long it will take until u get PPR. From my own experience my app started processing since March 2015.. for me in this month it's one year and I still haven't got PPR. At least you now have that third line.

Yes, seems like good news that atleast someone is looking at the file. To me it seemed quick, but I am preparing for the wait for the PPR.

How long did it take for you to get your third line? I am sure you will hear very soon - god willing!

The file was transferred to Nairobi just 2 weeks ago and now it is being looked at.

I appreciate your advice!

Good to hear. At least that gives some of us hope. It has appeared in the posts that this process usually takes so long in the Nairobi office. I am hope this will work out well for most us.
All the best to everyone!

Hello!
Decision made means the visa is stamped in ? Or means the passeport is sent back? My ECAS changed from in process to decision made since monday but nothing else inside. Do they send email or mail regarding the decision? How does people know that the passport is sent back to the owner? Clarify please!
Thanks
Yes as Samji Said DM means your wife Visas is stamped already!Congratulations and start shopping air tickets.I wish I was there too.
In most of the cases they send you an email that passport was sent Via the Courriel services.Check both your email and your wife's one.
Also If you sent a prepaid envelop then use the tracking number on it to track it.which company did you use?

Thanks brother lonelyguy!

I think i will book the ticket when she get her passport. I used DHL to send the documents but DHL agent told my wife that the embassy never accept prepaid envelop anymore so when they stamp the visa the will bring the passeport to DHL and DHL will call my wife to pick it up then she will pay money for it.

Is it good to book ticket by myself or to tslk to IOM? Advice please.

Praying for everyone succeed in this waiting game.

Thanks

I think better you do it.since you ca choose ethe price you want Directly. start to look online and take your time. tickets are interesting games. today might be o 1000$ and the next day at 800$.in her case I don't think you need to buy a returning ticket as she is not visiting she is immigrating.
the more days are very close the more it's had to get a good deal.let's say if you want to fly tomorrow it will ost you more than if you are looking next week option. and would be less again if it is a month after.but I guess after long waiting now what you want is to see your beloved one :)
All the best and pray for us as well.

Try it ofcourse.I know that most of the times if people have no travel documents, IOM facilitate that.but in normal situations, I have no informations. ofcourse it is better to ask them and compare.maybe we all might get a better information on how they work or what is their advantage.but many people I know no one passed through them, apart from the stateless persons , maybe it is because no one knew how they work. so I would suggest you contact them and share info with us.I suspect your Passport might be sent this Monday or Tuesday as well. so since it is within the same country Kenya(let's believe that by end of this coming week you will have it in hands).

Thanks for your prays, and maybe soon a good news is coming.who knows. :)

God Bless you. :)

Hello bro Lonelyguy!

Here is the IOM letter to Dear Shabani,



We can do the booking on the same day she comes to our office depending on the first available flight to Calgary.

She will be given a fare quotation of the cheapest flight and if she is content with our rates we will go ahead and give her bank account details so she can deposit the amount in our account at CFC Standbic Bank.



If you would prefer to make payment in Canada then you would have to contact our IOM Ottawa office and they would be in a position to advise you accordingly.



Kindly note that if you make her flight booking privately through the airline or a travel agency we will not be in a position to assist her in anyway.



Regards,

Zamzam.

Hi All,
My Ecas still
- We receive application on Aug 13,2014
- We started processing Application January 8,2015
- medical result has bee received
However,my wife resubmitted Medical and police certificate and the Application status is Decision Made since March 14.
Is this normal? there is no even the office will contact you about the decision.
they received my wife's passport since February 29. I've send them emails they never reply. so Confused.

Anybody else go through this please?
Thanks.
