I understand Sid...You will soon get your visa..at least you now know that they are working on it...next will be your PPR..
Do you still have "medicals" line removed? and does it still say app received? or in process.

Yes medical line is missing

Guys, 1 qn..

In the COPR., there was 1qn asking Refused admission to canada or required to leave canada.., and in that, I ve NO, though my visit visa got rejected once.. its ok?
 
Ok I was a little bored!

I took a sample of 34 people who started their application in early 2010 and are now finished
their application at New Delhi

11.7% of the people had to go for an interview.
29.4% of the people had to submit additional documents or go for an interview.

76.4% of the people had a passport request in 29 days from the date of sponsorship approval in Mississauga.
The rest were much longer like 40-80 days.

58.8% of the applications were done in 69 days from the date of sponsorship approval in Mississauga.
This group also included 30% of the people who had to submit additional documents or go to an interview.
Minimum 38 days to a maximum 91 days.

41.2% of the applications were done in 132 days from the date of sponsorship approval in Mississauga.
This group also included 70% of the people who had to submit additional documents or go to an interview.
Minimum 100 days to a maximum 279 days.

I was approved on Feb 22, 2011.

Passport Request should be on March 23, 2011. Actual: March 10, 2011
Visa with no complications should be on May 2, 2011.
Visa with complications should be on July 4, 2011.

I also got a typical right skew distribution that also agreed with some data on CIC website before they changed it.
Again this is from the date that your sponsor is approved in Missauga.

speedy passport request < 45 days - good news for 70% of these cases must be simple and be done in 69 days ~ 2 months
- for the rest 139 days ~ 4.5 month wait

long passport request > 45 days - bad news long wait - 148 days ~ 5 months

Enjoy!

Hey Guys,

Arrived safely in India, after being delayed 3 hours due to weather. But all worth it to see my husband finally. So we are preparing these days for interview. Will keep you all posted.

@ sanyrog

Thank You.
Refused admission to canada or required to leave canada - This is being asked to leave canada or denied entry at the port of entry
My Visa was refused once in 2005 and i believe i said the same when i filed for my PR.
I will again cross check

@ Drdave --- that is awesome work man....u are 2 weeks behind me...will back track and see when likely i will get it.. we can validate your stat model.. lol... :)

I was just wondering about possible dealays in processing at ND.. Just anything possible that could possibly delay the application... This is something that i came up with...

1) Spouse born outside india...
2) Stayed there till 18 years or younger and holds an indian pp
3) Rejected for any Visa
4) Married previously and Divorced
5) dependent Kids???
6) Frequent Travel outside India.

These are things that i think CIC would look into when reviewing files...ofcourse this list can go on.....anything more to add??
 
Hello All... I just checked my E-CAS and it says "Decision Made"....what an exciting moment!!!!

This is what it said " received application 15th Feb...started processing on the 22nd March...medical results have been received... A decision has been made and they will contact my wife...

Vish............... anything yet??

Sank
