My god, cristphil...I know the feeling of missing my wife, but we know we are strong and we will get through it. By the way, what VO office are you applying from?

You are totally correct, I am afraid that by the time they get to us it will be up to 90 days.

Kedeisha, I think I will post something on the main forum. I started to write an email to the minister, but suddenly I was afraid they may notice my name when the sponsorship application comes through Mississauga. Unless you want to write, ideally the best would be for a volunteer that has already landed is not so involved in the process to inquire about the increase of processing times for the sponsorship portion.

Lets keep our spirits up!

I know exactly what ur feeling I feel nervous about our app as well cus ours is kinda complicated cus were applying for conjugal partnership. My hubby told me that too he will give up everything and move to the Philippines or we might just look for a country that will accept us. I guess with the increased processing time we might not be able to be there by Christmas after all :( me and my husband cry everyday missing each other. We Skype a lot and thank God for magic jack lol it really helped us that we can talk anytime unlimited. But still u miss them cus u want to hold them, hug them kiss them feel them beside u. It hurts so much that it feels like someone is tearing up your heart. And u miss them so much ur heart just wants to jump of ur body and just go to them lol. I miss him so much. I feel so depressed and helpless cus we can`t do anything about it but to wait and let them (the immigration office) to decide whether we`ll be together or not. It`s like our future and our happiness are in their hands. :'(

I would like to join the September club too please!!! I am hoping to get my application out on September 16 (as soon as we can pay for the OWP fee to send the receipt w/the inland PR app) I am also gathering last minute add-ins to put with the application, but as soon as that next pay check comes we're going to rock and roll-with-the-motion-of-the-ocean!
I am really excited!!! Its finally here!
Good-luck everyone!!!

I still sent it with registered mail and I got a tracking number, it will just take a bit longer around 10 days max. They said it could be that I can't track it outside of Germany, so to be sure I also paid for a delivery card, that gets sent back to me automatically, when the recipient signs for it. Hope it works.
 
hi poeple iwould like to join all of u in September 2011 me and my wife wil send our applications and all package this month mybe one weak later
can i join you
 
hello to all!!!

i would just like to ask if anybody here has experienced this..

my husband petitioned me..
we are already on the stage of waiting for the decision for visa granting.(passed all forms, passed all docu needed, pass med exam, my husband has already paid for my PR, i already submitted my passport & marriage cert to them, as requested)

i just received all the documents from the canadian embassy (from manila) via DHL today.
these were the same documents that my husband passed to the canadian embassy (canada) initially on the first stage of our application...

does this mean that the canadian embassy (manila) has finished reviewing our petition?
normally how long will it take for us to know the result of their review?

thanks for your help in advance...
hope, we will see everybody, happily living with our families in canada! :)
