It seems that the September applicants may have to wait further - until at least after holidays - as the August applicants are still waiting for the next stage i.e. 'In-Process'.

Frankly, I won't expect to see any changes until mid-January. DMs can be expected only in Feb at the earliest.

So, until you don't see your status changed to In-process, there is a likelihood of an interview happening. Nobody can say for sure whether or not you will get an interview. Just hope for the best

Guys we just got a reply from MP and he indicated that our application is in initial review and we need to call back second week of jan. This has caused a lot of distress to both of us and we may not go forward with the application anymore.

Hey Mumble.....Plzzz dont give uppp..... I think there might be some confusion here.... We both got in process same day...n what reply I got from my MP was that file is waiting for final review as file goes in process only after initial review has been done and positive decision has been made by officer at initial stage....
 
Hello Mumble and AP I am with you people as well and remember when I went to MP first time I got the same reply that file is in final stage of review. Now I have had it inquires again by MP but this time he hasnt got the reply yet. Let me also tell you that it has only been 10 days that he sent an email. I called MP office today and he told me that there is another guy same as me got inquired and found his file is in final stage. So MP told me that implies same in your case considering time line.
SO MUMBLE DONT YOU EVER THINK TO GIVE UP CONSIDERING ALL OF US WITH SAME TIMELINE.

Next steps will be
1. your sponsorship approval, then the file will be transferred to your visa office
2. PPR request from visa office & any document request if needed
3. Interview if needed
4. In Process status to Decision made
5. Send back your passport with visa

But there might be variations from case to case.

Hello All,

Here is my Timeline:
Visa office: New Delhi
Medical done 9/12/12
Application received by CIC 9/21/12
Sponsorship approval 10/24/12
Passport requested 11/21/12

Here are my two questions:

1) Has anyone received PR approval or anything ahead with the similar timeline?

2) I'm residing in Canada since 5th Aug on visitor's visa and intending to apply for an extension of visitor's visa in the first week of Jan. Does anybody know if I still have to wait for another 90 days (once my PR is approved) to apply for SIN? OR can I directly, apply for SIN once PR is approved?

Thank you in advance!

I'd noticed that you applied out-land (new Delhi) in that case, you may not get any extension on TRV to stay more in Canada. Secondly for PR you have to come to India and in your case I strongly feel that you must call for an interview in CHC Delhi. You can extend your stay if you'd applied In-canada and can stay continually till the decision on you application made.

Good Luck ;)

Dear cal2can,
no reply from NDVO, u know i cry a lot when i miss my husband..i am bored of this life already. Above all i am not even working to divert my attention. and to top it all up people keep asking me when are u going :-[ people make our life feel so disgusted..

Hi There!

Just Don't care about bloody people what they are saying about your travelling to Canada. They don't know the process, Neighbors always need something to gossip. Just don't care what others are saying. You know that one day you will be with your partner for a better future and life. You are lucky that you are going abroad else people would start asking when you are making baby. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Just chill, Be Hapy and wait for your turn.

Good Luck yo you.
 
Guys, thanks for the posts and replies.

Yes I was hoping for a reply like, your file is final stage and it may take a couple of weeks to be done.

So one thing is sure, there is no hope for this year.
Another weird thing is that we called back our MP to check if we can get a copy of any email NDVO sent him. He informed us that NDVO had called him and not sent any email. We had inquired via email. Why didn't they mail? Are they afraid of giving a commitment in writing?

He also mentioned that normally when file is in initial review they ask to call back not before 90 days, in our case they asked him to call back second week of January, that may indicate that file may be done.

We are hoping to get our GCMS soon. That may shed some light. But I am surely sick and tired of being doubted by friends and family all the time.

a. NDVO called MP :o. I am laughing.
b. Processing time hasnt been finished yet considering 10 months
c. Who cares for people doubting as they dont know the normal process = 10 months, JUST TELL THEM THIS IS THE PROCESS
d. Once you're here all these so called 'friends/family' wouldn' care after you being here a year and more.

People just need something to do to occupy their time, so they gossip and ask inane questions.

Wait for your GCMS notes, they should be here soon, na? Then you will get a good idea of how the process has been.
