Congratulations to all those applicants here who have had their AORs and SAs received. Hubby and I are still waiting for our SA. It will be in our hands soon. Keeping our fingers crossed. It's good to see that the color changes on the spreadsheet. Most of the names there now are ib blue color. I can't wait for our turn. ;D

Hi KapAinie,
Have you tried calling the CIC toll free # to see where your application is? It's way past the step 1 processing time so you should have heard by now if your file has been transferred or not. But hang in there, I am sure your hear something soon.

Hi! This is my first post on this forum and I found this thread since my application was received on July 2. My Canadian husband is sponsoring me, his American wife. Here's our timeline so far in this waiting game:

Married: November 14, 2012
Medicals done: May 21, 2013
Paid all of our fees online, etc.: June 27, 2013
Application sent to Mississauga: June 28, 2013
Application received: July 2, 2013
Email from CIC that application had been received: July 19, 2013
Sponsor Approval: July 23, 2013 (Sent to CPP-Ottawa)
Medicals Received: it's said online that they've been received as long as we've had online access to our case so I'm not sure of the exact date they were received? They've just been listed as received since July 23, 2013.
Toronto bound!

And now we wait! I am the least patient person on earth and this process is making me learn how to be I guess, ack! haha. Also could I be added to the spreadsheet? Excited to follow along with everyone's progress here!
Congratulations... we almost have the same timeline... Goodluck to us... :)

Hi Desi-girl. We got our SA just today. It took a little longer because they sent it through mail. I appreciate your concern.

Hi everyone

Congrats to all SA's received.

I have a question about the medical.. My husband did a medical in his home town and I recently noticed it wasnt by a designated panel physician. So I sent him to the the doctor from the panel and he had his meds done yesterday. The doctor told him he'd email him the number and that it would be available online. But he left the office with nothing. Do you know how I'm supposed to let CIC know they were done without anything to send them? Just a little confused.

Hopefully should be getting SA any day now. Getting worried. Are there many that have been denied SA after the AOR?

Thanks for any advise :)

Did he give the UCI to the doctor? If so I believe they submit it electronically to CIC with that UCI number which matches it up.

And good luck to JuRy, Margaux 23, star001/im281213, can/alb and xxdieselxx for your SAs, I am sure it's coming soon.

To limejuice_23 and quebecvietnam, we haven't heard from either of you for a while now so hoping that things are going smoothly for the both of you and Good Luck with you applications. Hope we are not losing both of you as its sad to see friends go from the Chill Spot.

CONGRATULATIONS to all of you who have already received your SAs. We are halfway there already! :p
We just need to wait patiently now... Which is being really difficult to do.

Yay!!! :p Congrats JuRy :)

Although its odd that all SAs aren't chronological to date of applications received and some don't even fall within the processing times that were posted. I hope it's not going to be the same for Stage 2 in the processing, as in delayed. We all have to wait so long to reunited with our loved ones :(. If only the strike would end and the processing goes faster ::)
