I'm still watching this thread with interest. We got our COPR (for my wife) back in March but haven't landed yet. Our situation has been ten times easier than most of you because we've been together the whole time. In just over two weeks we're moving to Canada together and will go through what I hope will be an easy landing procedure. There's lots of work to be done getting ready to fly 'home.'

All the best to those of you still waiting. Good things come to those who wait!
Congratulations and happy landing!!!

Im still here browsing, they emailed me too say that my application is in process but my cic status has not changed. We have been living together in the UK for about 2 years now and were flying to Canada next week for a 6 week holiday which includes us flying to Jamaica for our wedding ceremonies so both our families can attend to so we can all celebrate together with 150+ of us flying over...

Hope i get good news question is, if they request my passport and i'm on travel during that time, do i need to fly to Canada to get it finalised in a time frame or i can go to Canada whenever?
That's awesome!! Getting the whole family together I bet is not an easy task!
I'd say you have so many days to send your passport. I'm not sure, though.
When did you process went to "In Process"?

Happy Wedding!!

Hi!

Are you from a visa exempt country? If so, London doesn't send a passport request, when a decision is made (given it's an approval) they will just mail your COPR to you :) Your COPR will have a date written on it and you have to land on or before that date.

Hiya Brazil,

It was not a easy task been planning this for over a year, still got family members saying their coming but its too late now lol..

I just checked as yesterday it still said (Medical File received November 14) and now it says "In Process" (We started processing your application on July 16, 2013.)

Oh gosh so we have days left to send the passport? Part of me is hoping they don't give me DM until were back in the country

Hey Oscar!
Welcome aboard! May I include you in our spreadsheet?
And don't worry about the "Application Received" only. I'm in the same page. Hopefully we will hear something from them very soon! ;)

Btw, everybody, could anyone tell me if the "Background Check" is the last, or one of the last, things to be analised?
Thanks a lot! =)

Sure, you can include me, no problem. Now with the strike it will take longer, right?

But I believe they will end the strike very soon. Both parts got to talk yesterday to get into an agreement. I hope they get to agree on something very soon!
I will add you to our spreadsheet now. That a look later and see if all is well, ok?
Cheers!

BTW people, as I have nothing to do, I decided to make a Pie Chart, showing the percentage of how many people is at each Stage. ;D

In London, it is always signed with ACD/ CDD, so I guess it is the VO processing the file at the time or at least responding to the email/ message.

If you look in the details of the .pdf sponsor approval letters you can sometimes find the actual name of the officer who approved sponsorship (from when the Adobe software was registered to that officer).
