Congratulations Teri. You are 1st one, on this forum, from Nov 25 batch, to get visa... The news from you bring hope and certainly there is light at the end of tunnel. It good that you finished the marathon. We'll get there, but for some there are more hurdles CIC has put in our race.... I mean some folks (including me) got Re-medical request. Some files are sent to LVO... some LVO's are not fast enough... or have quota constraints...
If CIC had not introduced new procedure in November last year, we all would have been praying for sponsorship approval today. CIC was not even crawling last year. But, they were dead stop at September 11, 2007 for months.... and honestly, last year same time, I had not imagined to get that far by now. Therefore, I think that things changed for good and hopefully everyone who is frustrated can see this as a motivational factor that something is better than nothing. I hope that by next year same time, we all are waiving our visas.... including 2007, 2008, and 2009 guys.... irrespective where the file was transferred... LVO or Ottawa.....
