Admirable, i know that POS covers more islands, but are they really more applicants applying through TNT? I somehow get the feeling that they are not and that POS is just laid back because of the small numbers they process.
Yes, I know that the medicals go to PoS as well, but do they need to ok them as well? I don't know the answers to these questions, I'm only playing devil's advocate.
I do wish that we could see some movements instead of 1 every blue moon.
How can you have a person waiting for over 22 months, what could so wrong with that application? Also yourself, one would think that after your interview all they would now need would be updated medicals and PC and you would be good 2 go. Hopefully I am wrong and you are good 2 go.
I know we have to be patient, but it is hard seeing loads of others who have applied after you getting there and you are hearing little or nothing.
Come on POS we need movements and lots of it.

Good Evening....

I am so excited :D :D!!!!

Hubby and I received an email from POS today.

It came from RE-PSPAN-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca [mailto:RE-PSPAN-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca

Dear Applicant,

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada.

I am pleased to advise you that all processing requirements have been met and your immigrant visa will be issued to you when you have provided the following to our office:

1) copies of ALL the pages of your current/valid passport. Your passport must be valid at least one month beyond the validity of your medical examination, 12 October 2012, which will be the date by which you must arrive in Canada as an immigrant;

2) one (1) current passport-type photograph, meeting the enclosed specifications, for yourself. Do not staple or glue these photos to any object;

3) complete the following information for yourself:

Name Eye Colour Height (cm)



You are required to submit all the items listed above in THIRTY (30) days from the date of this letter, failure to do so will result in your application being refused for non-compliance. It generally takes from two to four weeks to make a final decision on your application once ALL the documents have been submitted, excluding mail or courier handling.



Applicants resident in Guyana, Antigua, Barbados, Dominica, St. Lucia, Grenada, St. Vincent, St. Kitts-Nevis, must contact their local courier service e.g. DHL or FEDEX to make pre-paid arrangements for the return of their permanent residence document once issued.

Please return this letter with your documents and photograph

Thank you for your prompt response.

I have a question - my husband is a citizen of Guyana leaving in Barbados, doesn't he need to send his passport since Guyana is not a visa exempt country??
Congrats :D

We bajan love that word. GINE. You know I lived in the UK for 15 years and I had almost forgotten some of the words we bajans use, but now that I'm back everything is coming back into place. maybe it was because in the UK I did not hear those words very much at all.

Mrslwsn, I post a little bit on your JA thread, but maybe you did not take notice of me because I too small. lol..
