Making you do work on your birthday .. I'm sorry!! I'm just literally crying over here 'cause they're working on march now.
I was also wondering, will they refuse an application if mine/my sponsor's credit is bad?
No. As long as there is no bankruptcy (that is the stipulation). Also see above, and I order you to stop the crying :).

Ok

I ask really, really, nicely :).

That's like the next 2 months. Now I'm crying harder haha I hope everything goes well and I don't get stuck in 2016 while they're processing 2018 applicants :( Thank you! :) No bankruptcies! Just young & stupid. (and jobless but had to live in my case)

Unlikely. Until I see the COPR, I won't believe that we flew threw with only problems with ATIP and stupid automation errors and a ridiculous medical lapsing.. But if you have some reasonably strong evidence, they likely won't have much of an issue. I don't know what you submitted, so I cannot placate your fears anymore than that (for now).

And I can tell you:
- It will be ok. Everything will be ok.
- The math gods are never wrong. Just ask them..

Her Sec, Crim and BG are passed. Stupid medicals...
Hi profiler, so, today I received an email from CIC granting my request for additional time to provide our medical results. Thanks for your advice. I have read from somewhere ( I lost the link) that Starting December 15,2016, CIC has to provide IME number for applicants, meaning, no more upfront medicals... this is probably why medicals that were done upfront were not considered after December 15,2016...

Anyway, atleast our application is finally moving. Any news on your part?

News? See: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/spousal-sponsorship-inland-applications-2016-timeline-and-updates-t389295.0.html;msg5889527#msg5889527

Also, no her medicals were actually 3 months invalid. But based on the above, they told my MP's office the truth -- they are literally ready to DM her case, and do the medicals ASAP... They did have an operational bulletin explaining how to transition the medicals. Upfronts that are still valid are ok.

April 12 was the soonest. I can't change that :(.

I am glad CIC did grant you an extension. If you didn't say anything you'd be in trouble...

Profiler, if you are still doing the predictions... I would appreciate a forecast, losing hope here... :-[

Our app was received on Jan 21, 2016; AORs on Mar 11 and Jun 1, 2016; and then SA on Jul 5 and AIP on Jul 13 (I'm in that batch of AIPs that were granted on Jul 13). And since then it's been dead silence... Thanks in advance!!!!

Oh and we've completed our upfront medical on Jul 27 and it shows up as received on ECAS...

Their phone message says they are working on apps received before Feb 10 2016. That's what I used as a date to figure out where people would be. So, you'd break that, cause a black hole, and invert the universe ( 2 / 0 kind of black hole).

With that said, You have SA, AIP, and you have done the rest. You might want to poke them to see if you missed a communication or something (check spam folders in email). Considering they are actually starting into March now, you should be long along that track.

Do you know the landing office? It can also be that you missed an email from them to say the other office will contact you (Etobicoke is taking 7 weeks or so now).

Here is a link to the DM guess sheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fS4dhQhkyJuEa3U1OkcJDDYqHk9VyvK6SQP9Jhh2eyk/edit#gid=0

Notice profiler's is April 24... Stupid rounding. But in the interest in fair play, I won't change it to April 18.

Anyone can add them selves to it. It's only for fun....

Thanks legolg, GuyanaGirl and Matthars.

The MP's office basically told us that they want the medical ASAP, because they are ready to DM. I guess we know what the decision will be.... stupid medical validity...

@GuyanaGirl -- It was your voodoo curse on CPC-M I bet. Because ECAS still shows her side as "Application Received". chuckles Ohh ECAS.. the butt end of every joke in life... Always the bride's maid, never the coconut..
Mmmm coconut bread with butter...LOL

Poor ECAS, always showing up to the gun fight with a knife
they must have read my voodoo foggy Monday rant yesterday...

Standby, I will get my work laptop *sighs*

EDIT: GuyanaGirl will need to bless this with her voodoo, but according to the math gods, May 4 2017. Remember, this is probably going to be DM by then. So, probably in 2 weeks you will start to hear.
Leglog ....patience my child....May is indeed a promising month for you..the gods are in your favor, but be sure to not anger them with panicking and anxiety :-X


Anyone remember those Ms Cleo Psychic hotline commercials from the 90s ? LOL :D
