is today the day it was signed as received or u sent it off today?
 
It says "Item successfully delivered" I sent it out on the 19th using Canada post NEXT AM and it got there 2 days later lol

Do we get any acknowledgment letter from CIC?? DO you guys think they will cut down the processign time of 63 days?!?! I mean considering summer holidays are over...? They really need to set their priorities straight!! lol

Yay, Kedeisha!! It must be such a relief! I'm still waiting for my marriage certificate. I'm crossing my fingers that it arrives this week. I'm adamant that I will be part of this september group!!! I will make it!! :)

leroadrunner, where did you send your package from?? If the price is that comparable, maybe I should go with fedex instead. hmmm..

From North York! So not really far!

Cheers!

Cheers!
 
Thanks!!

Good luck to you too :)
 
Congratulations guys!


Hopefully mine will go out this week! I keep finding errors in my applications typos and the like. I am really frustrated and just drained out of energy its beginning to take a toll. I am very much trying to keep positive and keep my wits about me but to be honest I keep doubting that the package is "complete" thoughts keep going through my mind like "you can't send it yet you need more explanations to why 'X' 'Y' & 'Z' or the explanation needs to be more clearly written" and "There's a misspelled word on page 5 gotta type the whole thing over again" Am I being overly meticulous? Is that possible?

For the first time last night I had heated discussion with my husband just because he forgot to call Western Union to see if they could fax or e-mail us a transaction list. I've been working on this thing for months part of me wants to send it off and if there's an issue there's an issue and the other part of me cant seem to be satisfied with the hard work I've put into this thing - will this "its never going to be good enough" feeling go away?

I feel terrible for "dumping" here but honestly I don't have anyone else to talk to about this that knows the process and I really needed to get it off my chest.

Please please please don't get discouraged!

I think we all have those days when we get fed up with the process, but it's only normal. Take a day for yourself to re-charge and keep going.
Being meticulous is a good thing! but don't go overboard. I think as long as your application is complete, they won't care if there is an ortographic error.
One piece of advice that was helpful to me, was that I filled out the application with the guide next to me, so I went back and forth a lot to ensure I understood the question, and gave the proper answer.
I also called the CIC line many times, with what seemed stupid questions and they were super helpful, so don't hesitate to do that.

If you have doubts, come to us and we'll try to help with our own experiences.

You are not alone in this! there are many of us going through the same thing, so we might as well help each other...

Take care, breath, and everything will be ok!
 
I agree with ccbrasil that you should do your best but don't get discouraged with the process. This is a normal feeling that maybe you could have done things better. Even after sending my application I have doubts sometimes. This is all good and it's not the end of the world.

Thank you so much ccbrasil I really needed to hear your kind and encouraging words. Thank you also Quince 777. I see that this is all part of the process. I think I am going to take a breath, take a walk and do some yoga, collect my brain from wherever it went in the cosmos and come back clear headed.
I really am just so thankful for all of you helpful individuals- such a blessing.
May love triumph over all!
<3
I'll be back later.... :)
