The waiting period for Bucharest is 6 months... but it is sooo long. I am extremely anxious about this since I feel extremely lonely without my husband. I hope thqat by spring there is a light... an answer and we are together again.
Anybody else married to a Romanian and having to endure the same thing?

Sadly there are lots of people in various countries who have (and will) wait more than six months.

Denisa, I understand that every second spent away from your beloved is one second too long.

However, Bucharest is very fast compared to other offices. I participate in Russian-speaking forum elsewhere and there are Russian-speaking women from Moldova whose wait time was as short as 2.5 months. Even Moscow that advertises 8 months (it was 6 not so long ago) is much much slower than Bucharest. And let's not forget there are offices where wait times are much longer.

When was your file opened in Bucharest? - Could you share your timeline with us?

Calvados,

We sent the file to my parents on November 4 and they received it and sent it to Missisauga. The immgration service received it on November 12. The immigration service send us a letter on December 23 but I opened it on January 8 when I came back from Romania. They said that I was approved as a sponsor and that the file went to Bucharest.
Now... it's January 18... so I am kind of worried about the file.. it must be 2 weeks.

I am waiting patiently for me and my husband to be together but it's especially hard for him since he does not have a job and is living with his parents and sick grandmother.

When did you send your application?... Just curious

Hello everyone!

Yes, the waiting is long but each day counts, becouse each day passes by we are closer and closer to the end...

We all knew that all this process will not be easy but for love and happiness we do everything it takes.

Good luck to everyone!
