Hubby's planning for November
Canadianinlove said:
Well ladies looks like we are all waiting! :p
I found the same thing at Thursdays seem to be the date for updates. Fingers crossed I hear something this Thursday. That will be 39 days... I wonder how long it really takes to transfer files to another visa office. At work it takes a couple of days to go from one location to the next? I guess that is for a private business though, a little different.

I am always hopeful. It is really stressful being apart though, sometimes we get into silly arguments about nothing. We get frustrated not being able to be together like "normal" people. Can't wait till we get to be in the same house and eat dinner together like a family. ;) :D

Its the small things in life that mean the most. In the meantime, I am still checking our status! Haha!
Patience is virtue girl! Be sure to check Hubby's email on a regular basis though.... check spam and everywhere. Hopefully there's something already there?? If not! I'm sure you'll hear something soon.

I am so stressed out right now. No update and no word. I was hoping that they would have asked us for our FBI report at least.
I guess each case is different. :(
I have been praying everyday and all I can do is have faith. I am trying to stay positive :D

I am so happy for you guys. I can't wait until it is my turn.

I have checked every email and am constantly online checking my file - still says Application Received.

I totally understand girl. Feels like just the other day I was in your shoes. You're right though each case is different. Also, it also depends on who the file lands with.

Can I ask a question? Why does your husband need an FBI report? Reason why I ask is because my husband just sent in a local police clearance and that was it.

Anyhow, you're both in my prayers girl. Can't wait to see a post from you saying "got PPR!" :)

Hey girl,
I have a few questions for you
1) When we send in the PP how will CIC notify me when they receive it ?
2) How will I know when they are sending it back ?

He is living temporary in New York with his sister. He had to do the FBI report because that is a requirement if you lived in the US. We had originally requested that his file be processed through Ottawa and not POS as he has been in the US since January 2014 but CIC sent it to POS. I am hoping that is just a hold up. His file might me in the need documents pile. I just get stressed when I see 17 months to process some files through POS. ???

Staying positive though, I know it is all a process. :)

Hey to all those who have reched the passport return part. I come to realise that i checked hubbys return tracking information and the passport is on its way back however, I realise some of you were saying you received an email from POS stating the visa has been issued and what not. I have not gotten an email from them isnt that strange??

Well ya i know email is the main one but scrolling through the forum i realise a few ppl just randomly got back theyre passport and seen the visa in it lol idkkk man. Ecas doesnt tell you the visa has been issued though, it changes to decision made when they send you the "dear *** we have reached the final stage blah blah". After that it changes to Complete when they land. My
