well today is not such a great day, I received a letter telling me that the appeal would not be seen for another 24 months. I am so sick to my stomach

WHAT???? How is it possible????!!!!!????

I don't get it! An appeal in 24 months? Can you remind us where you live in Canada?

I am so so sorry Terry. It must hurt awfully

In Edmonton, and I thought it would be Vancouver office and now all of a sudden it is the Edmonton office I am waiting for. This hurts so much, I wish there was something I could do. It has been so long now.

O Terry my heart is breaking with yours, this is terrible terrible news. I am so, so, so sad for you. You know these past few weeks of waiting, waiting I have been reading over all the stories of the people on here, and I feel like I have gotten to know each one in a way. I read with pure joy and excitement as some got their visas and my heart broke with those who got denied and all the trials each one has endured. It is just so unjust, the whole process.

I don't know how on earth you will do it Terry but you will get through this. You have been through a lot, and you are stronger than you think you are. We have to believe that this has happened for a reason we know nothing of, but that all is planned by someone who wants the very best for us and knows when the time will be right. DO NOT GIVE UP!! Don't let them win. Keep pushing and trudging forward and show them how wrong they are. You will be with your husband. You will have your family made whole. Your love will overcome! Habibti's story is so encouraging. If they can survive what they did you will too.

You are in my prayers sister.

Thank you so very much. This has been really hard on the kids and I. Yesterday I was feeling defeated, but today is a little better. I will never give up on my husband, that is for sure. I think it has been so unfair with everything I have heard around the forum. I do not understand why everything happens the way it does. I just hope it will not take another 24 months. I just do not understand why it is going to take 24 more months when we could get a hearing in less then a year in Vancouver. Is Edmonton a new office? There was no information on the letter except it would take another 24 months and that is in my head. This is all so crazy. Ya Habibiti has helped also. Goatlove and Jamali as well. I have good support here that understand and I am very thankful for that. No one really knows what I am going thru, but everyone here does.

Thank you again

Terry I wonder, could you speak to your MP about this long delay? Even if he or she can't do anything maybe they can find out why so long, or if there's a chance it could take less time? I know nothing about appeals but I figure it's worth a shot. What the heck are we paying them for anyway :

I need to figure out who to talk to in regards to this in Edmonton, right now they do not even know...lol. I spoke to one and he did not know who I would talk to. It is so hard.

Welcome to the forum, lots of good support here when we are on.

 

[amoula]

thanks a lot !

Welcome amoula, it is a long and difficult process to come to Canada but just hang in there, your time will come. In the meantime we are all here for you!

Terry, wow I don't know what to say. Seems our government is so backwards about everything

They are so backwards about it. So much is unfair. But our love and strength will get us thru this InshaAllah.

 

[amoula]

thanks Mr habeeb i know its long but we have just to wait and to be patient !

 

[habeeb]

lol actually amoula I'm MRS habeeb

Gosh it's been so quiet on here lately. Tough time all around I think. You know when I talk about being patient and staying strong it is to encourage myself as much as others. This waiting game is so hard, *sigh*

In hopes of stirring up some conversation....

Today my mind is wandering back to the days of running around Rabat: trying to get capacite de mariage, finding the embassy closed already at 11 am that day....going back the next day to find it was a holiday....running around the medina like a chicken with no head trying to find a stupid postage stamp for the Moroccan police clearance (a stamp??? really??? a stupid little stamp has the power to render this paper invalid??? Doesn't anybody have a stamp for Pete's sake???? ).

What wonderful memories they are now, I will never forget the way the sea air is so cool and fresh in Rabat, even on the hottest of days. Or the way it felt, my hubby's hand taking mine and leading me in the never ending wild goose chase around the city for papers, notaires, traduction. How I miss just holding his hand. Those mornings before the chase began in the cafe near the art theatre in the centre, I think it was called 7th Art Cafe. So lush with gardens and palms all around and the aroma of that wonderful arabic coffee with omelets and spiced olives. I just loved taking in the air and watching the people passing by. Walking down the esplanade at night with the Parliament buildings all lit up and street vendors everywhere selling the cheapest plastic toys or shoes or sunglasses. I can't believe it was over a year ago, it seems like some kind of strange dream now but I love to let these memories flow over me. It helps to take my mind off the waiting.

I'd love to hear some of your fond memories from the land of the setting sun
