How come they asked you to resubmit the application to the attention of a visa officer ? Are we usually supposed to do that ??

Thanks for the update, Sparkle. :) I've added it to the spreadsheet.

Hopefully many of us will have news about the Sponsorship portion of our applications soon.

Thanks for all your effort :) I hope so too that we all hear some good news pretty quick !!
Just wondering, Will they mail a letter to me (sponsor) regarding the sponsor decision or would they provide a file number to check status online?

Hello all.

I am in the same boat as many of you and it is very helpful to hear all of the other stories of people with similar concerns.

We sent our application to Mississauga on the 3/12/10 and it was signed for on the 15/12/10.

We are currently just waiting on the sponsor decision. hopefully the Christmas period won't delay proceedings too long!!

Good luck to everyone and feel free to add me to the list if you wish and I will keep everyone updated.

Have a good New Year!

Oh yea and we are sending to the London office for processing.

@ Sparkle - From the best of my understanding and reading of the forums, they'll send you (the sponsor) a letter regarding the sponsorship decision. I think at that point they'll also assign a case number to the file. My best guess is they'll give you the case number in the letter they send.

@MandP - Welcome to the December forum! I've added you to our list. You're the second one we have going through the London office. :) Congrats on getting your application in!
