MY IDEA FOR TODAY :D ;) :-[ :-* TO ALL APPLICANTS WHO ARE WAITING HERE FOR A VISA AND FEEL LIKE THEY ARE USELESS IN TRYING TO GET ONE get all the spouses in canada to go to thier MP office and ask for information on thier visa application. Lets do it on Feb 14,2013, VALENTINES DAY this will barrage the system and show the canadian government there is something wrong wiith the system as it is useless and unkind to all of us who apply making us wait and not giving us any communications. DOES ANYONE WANT TO TRY THIS OR DO U THINK ITS A STUPID IDEA, COMMENT PLS im sure the consular in manila would get a phone call from jack kenney if we did
SCORE TO DATE :p KICK EMBASSY MANILA ASS 5 AGREE :p STUPID IDEA 0

Incidentally, contacting the call centre ... well ... that will be of NO value to you. Nobody knows or even feigns to know anything until your package has been "opened".
I would want to hear from the call center at least. We have filed November, yet December applicants are getting SAs ahead of us. Happy for them, but upset at how our application is not getting any single notice, mail nor email, from CIC when we had filed earlier.

Hoping to get a positive response from them next week when their website updates.

YOU MUST ALSO CONSIDER UR TIME WAITING DOES INCLUDE THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS,NOT MUCH GOT DONE IN ANY OFFICE FROM DEC 21 TO JAN 3 GOODLUCK
thanks for wishing me luck! perhaps they also have an acceptable reason why December timeline has movement when we filed earlier in November. To think ours is a straightforward case..
