I would love to, but I have no news to share.
I sent my appeal request into the Vancouver IRB on September 25, 2011 and I've still heard nothing, not even a confirmation on my request being received. I can't get through on the phone. I'm livid.
My son will be one in less than a month. I'm supposed to go back to work soon, but I don't know how I'm supposed to juggle everything by myself. In the 10 months that it took for Accra to finalize my husband's rejection, we had asked for Humanitarian and Compassionate considerations for the visa because our family situation had changed, and they blatantly ignored us.
I feel like we've been told our family is a piece of garbage that doesn't deserve to exist. I have no energy left for all the ambiguity this situation has caused. I'm disgusted, really.
You should have received an acknowledgment letter by now. I appealed first week of December 2011 and received acknowlegment letter end of December 2011. I called them a couple weeks ago to see if they had any more information for me and they said that they are waiting for the "record" from accra to determine if i will get an adr or full appeal. I pray to God it's an adr...I will follow up again end of this month.
You need to try to get a hold of someone to find out what's going on. Don't just sit and wait around.
I understand what you mean about not having any energy left, because i am completely drained myself. I don't even want to get out of bed most days, because i am depressed, but i always think about my hubby, he is what motivates me to keep going when i feel depressed. I just want to live a normal life again, without constant worrying and nightmares.
I remember when he was refused the visa in Novemeber, i cried every day for at least a month, i was making myself sick. Let's pray to God that our nightmares end soon!
Keep strong for your hubby, ok?
