Now im really hoping CIC speeds things up.... i neeeeeed to get out of connecticut.. lately it just seems like the worst place to be. first the hurricane and now this elementary school shooting JUST outside my city : ( i'm heartbroken and feel so unsafe here. just wish i could be safe with my husband in canada.
I'm sure yours is coming very soon!!! So sorry to hear about all of the terrible things happening over there! Thinking about you and everyone in Conneticut!! (sp?)
Positive thinking it is coming soon!!! It's a straightforward process just slow. If there's no reason to to be approved then everything will be ok!

Everything will be ok :) don't worry! It won't help to go to the consulate while you are in Brazil. Just stay strong and positive and focus on you guys :)
We are both outland doing our visa through Sao Paulo and i hear its quite a slow process in Brazil but hopefully all goes smoothly!!!

Going to Brazil in 2 weeks can't wait need to take my mind off this!!

CONGRATS to everyone who has been approved this week :D:D:D
Thanks for letting me know it doesn't matter if we go to the Consulate in São Paulo. My hubby thought it could help us, or that he could at least take me back with him now. I guess we need to be patient!

My man is coming for the New Year, and all I wish is that I could just sleep until the day he gets here!
The days don't pass by fast enough! So I know what you mean!
Enjoy yours stay in Brazil!

I don't think they do, also because having a job is not a requirement for a sponsor. You're required to have a plan to support your family, and know how you will organize yourself, but a job is not the only way.
They mostly rely on Option C ( for the ones in Canada) to see if you have been employed, and also to check if you're on welfare... Normally the sponsorship part is pretty simple: welfare check, yes or no, criminal background check (yes or no) and see if you are eligible to sponsor your family member (not the quality of your relationship, but if you qualify as a sponsor for your family member : let's say you applied common-law, if you have only been living together for 6 months ( and not the 12 required) they will let you know already).
Good luck to all,
Sweden
Thank you for your reply. A new week starts, I am sure we can get some approvals this week before Chistmas.
Good luck to us all.

I feel you! mine is coming for Christmas and I'm like praying that i have a busy week so it flies by so that he gets here faster lol. He will only be here for a few days but it's much better than spending Christmas all alone, right? Excited for you and all the rest who get to spend the holidays with their loved ones<3 : )

I hope he gets there really fast, love!
All I've wished for the longest time was that I could have at least a minute with him, to look into his eyes and touch his face.
So a few days is a great bonus!!
Much love to you guys and to all of our November applicants fellows! <3

Hi there :)
You can edit your info and send PM when you've posted 10 times.
Ms Malawi will add you to the spreadsheet as soon as she can! :)


Happy holidays, everyone! The rest of our November group has to start hearing from CIC soon so I hope we can all relax and concentrate on other things in the meantime (I'm not the best example of this but let's try anyways!) :-*

just a wild guess buttttt..... maybe cic is taking some sort of pre-holiday break? lol. who knows, but we havent had any more approvals for this month and there's certainly no chance that all of us got denied lol. PATIENCE GUYS! i'm trying really hard but as time goes buy mine just starts to wear thin.
