hey guys its really nice to have the support. Thanks
Well a little history of my case! ahh where to start
Its so much. I was staying in Canada on an expired visa ( overstayed) Yes I know its stupid but I was young and my family there (aunt) did not offer any good advise about extending my visa, work permit etc) anyways immigration found out and I was placed in the holding center. My friends came and got me out by paying a bond. There after I tried by every means to stay legally in Canada, but was denied in court. I willingly came back to home country. In all this time I was dating someone in Canada who was presently coming out of a bad relationship. Anyways we mained our relationship, this person visits regularly, and after 3 years of strong long distance relationsgip we got married last March, my spouse
filed the application in June 09
Application received and started processing in POS Aug 09
request for finger prints Oct 09 for check in RCMP
Interview April 10
Nothing about ARC was mentioned to me by IO
Still waiting for decission
Ok. The interview was nerve recking, the IO was a nice lady but very deceiving. She asked all the questions there is on the internet as well as questions that pertained specially to my case. They have all the records of my applications in Canada and everything, but first when she was asking questions she pretended like she did not know anything, then judging from my answers she brought back the same answers to bite me. So that is why I always say answer honestly no matter what in that time they will not be able to hold it against you. This is my case in a nut shell although there are other fine details that are very personal and I don't want to share at this time.
I don't know what to expect at this time, but God I hope its good news.
Royal T better count your blessings
