Did they updated your ECAS status to "application returned"? or did they sent you an email as well?

dont be. i share the same feeling when our application was returned. it made me sad but at the same time thankful. if they did not ask for our medical that early, i would probably up to this day find myself wondering how on earth would i submit my lacking document in such a way that it would not cause delay on my application.sometimes things dont go the way we want it to be, but i strongly believe that everything happens for a reason.cheer up.

Yes, it sucks, but guess what?you are human. Getting all those documents ready is no easy task, AT ALL, so its ok to mess up.
Whats a few days when compared to being together with your spouse for the rest of your life?! NOTHING! so cheer up, and as pretty much everything that makes us feel bad: one day you'll laugh at this :)
I'm fine now, what will be, will be. :)

Did it just come in the regular mail or did you have to sign for it?

I'll let you know what happens to me. I'd contemplated just sending it but I'm gonna wait until the contact me. Got the form here ready to go once they do.

You're on BE as well aren't you? I have a different username on there.

osdamour does the spreadsheet for Oct so he'll add you when he see's it and your app is received in Mississauga. Did you send it recorded? That's what App received is, when they got it. AOR is Acknowledgement of Receipt, so basically when they've processed your payment and acknowledged they have the application.

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/immigration-acronyms-t3007.0.html - might help.

Hopefully they won't send them back (though it's the CIC so they probably will). I'm just glad it's not the IEC again :D

that makes sense, yeah i sent it recorded, but it says it wont arrive till th 17th when i try tracking it, we had it all ready to go last week, went to send it saturday then realised it was the long weekend, so wouldnt get sent out till tuesday, bummer.

thank god it isnt the IEC, im on a count down to may 7th it all being in. though whats annoying is that ive read of people doing land crossings recently and getting 2 years on their IEC!

My IEC is up in April, so I'll be lucky if I get it in time. Especially now with my cock-up. Ah well.

I met someone yesterday who is a tri-citizen, so she applied on her Aussie passport to get longer.

Once it's been signed for someone will add you to both sheets (London and October) :)
