Agreed! I admire the many people from the Jam fam that have been waiting so long but still find the strength to stay positive and celebrate when people pass them in the line/ process. You guys are very inspirational!

Thank you so much everyone!

Zouk did your application ever go to 'in process' and how did the coincide with the notes? Meaning what have they completed at the point of it going in process?
Yup, we went to in process I think about 2 weeks before PPR was issued. In terms of the notes, it happened after the sr officer declared our application approved and issued the order to renew meds and request new PC. If we hadn't had to wait on that meds renewal, my husband would've landed about 4-6 weeks after going to in process.

Did they just extend your meds or did you have to do a re-medical?

They extended them. Took about 8 weeks to get approval from Ottawa, hopefully they've sped that up by now. Depends on when they finalize your case though...they can only extend meds within 15 months of the original exam date.

MissD: was just looking at the spreadsheet and noted an 'in process' by your name. Did you get an update on ECAS? Hope I'm not being too nosey. Just glad if things are progressing for you too!
@Behopeful, thanks for the shout-out a few pages ago, I really needed it. I've been having a hard time with the wait.

As for my "In Process", I put it there just because I can see from my notes that some junior officer did work on the file, but I have never actually gone into "In Process". I'm very upset and saddened that I'm waiting over 13 months now and nothing. I'm becoming extremely extremely depressed.

I just feel like someone is picking on me and taunting me while everyone else's file moves along and mine sits somewhere inevitably as everything expires and gets further from my reach. Hence why I've been away a little while... it's really hard.

Congrats everyone on your progress, I'm happy that you all will get to enjoy your lives with your loved ones and I'm happy you don't have to go through what I'm feeling right now. Much love.

Hey there Miss D. I think a few of us have been worrying about your absence, so really glad to hear from you. I've been praying for you and your hubby and will continue to do so. It's not the same without the sounds of banter between you and millslu. Sending out virtual hugs as well. Blessings.

MissD I know exactly how you feel...we have almost the same time line and it feels like a 2 steps forward three steps back senerio..I think we both are in the same boat..Hold strong Miss D..

Thanks for the kind words. I've been sobbing uncontrollably. I am very happy for everyone's recent blessings, I just feel very left out and like it's my turn too.. and somehow like POS is torturing me during one of the (already) most stressful times of my life with school and things. I just feel like I can't take it anymore.. and I'm not really sure what to do. I'm beyond depressed.

I do check in on you guys to see how it's going, I just don't have much positive to say so I keep quiet to keep my negativity from bringing down you guys. You all deserve your moments and I don't want to ruin them.

It kind of feels like getting kicked in the gut every single minute of every single day while watching other people smile. You're happy other people are smiling (and they deserve it) but you're wondering why you keep getting kicked in the stomach.. you know? I've called in sick 2 days in a row to work.. I am just... sick. Hugs

@Kadi, thank you very much
