I think the reason we are not seeing any updates from members is because there are less than 30 registered July 2013 applicants here on this forum (check the spreadsheet), and there were just over 500 spousal visa applications filed in July 2013. 30 out of 500 represents just 6%, that's 6% of total July 2013 spousal visa applicants are registered here on our forum. So I am sure that many many people outside this forum are getting updates everyday, it's just that we don't see it. Here is the link that tells you how many applications were made in each month: http://data.gc.ca/data/en/dataset/5c003561-ce36-4881-a5a4-c30f9f456690

Should the applicant come to interview without one of these interpreters, the interview will be rescheduled, leading to processing delays.
