Congratulations Mandy & everybody else who got their approvals today....

Called CIC again, spoke to different rep, said he couldn't see anything in my file, after further probing and putting me on hold repeatedly, he came back saying I should expect a letter in the mail (!) but he couldnt confirm whether the letter was positive or something else... doh!

So anyways he said giving that snail mail is sent regular mail I should expect delays, I said oh really!? Sheeesh.... I'm fed up now, first they don't give you a straight answer, although the reps have so far been polite but clueless.... and second, why don't they use modern technology like email to communicate with you? goshhhh

Now I'm feeling apprehensive because there's no certainty in the outcome as suggested by the rep's response to my queries. So back to waiting until the letter arrives. I'll keep you posted...

Thank you Mandy, although it's hard to stay positive without solid ground to stand on... but on I tread....

By the way, has any of you July peeps gotten your AOR letter yet? Please let me know so I can update the spreadsheet.

I'm betting it's approval - have you tried to log into ecas?

Congrats to everyone past this step... I can't wait to be done with this part... still months to go.

Hi guys,

Here is my story.
I was told that my file was sent in July.
I visited the lawyer office on July.10. Everything was complete and his assistant told me that she is going to mail in just three four days. She said she just needs to prepare the cover letter. I checked the file and everything was complete except she needed to re-print few pages.
I called again on July.14/2011 and she said that your file has been submitted.
I emailed the lawyer on July.27/2011 and he confirmed that the case has been submitted (I still have his email)
Anyways I let you guys know that CIC received my file on July.14/2011.
You guys were receiving emails already. I did not and they were already working on July.11/2011. I thought to call CIC and they could not find anything. I called the assistant again. I asked her to let me know the date when CIC received the file (She said it was registered mail). She said she will check it for me when I come to her office to submit his FBI report. I said I will visit in few days. FBI report is not that important at this stage. She asked me to hold and she checked the date. I knew she said July.14/2011 a month ago but I still wanted to confirm the date. She now changed the date. She said it says July.18/2011 on your cover letter and CIC received on July.20/2011. Anyways now they were working on July.20/2011 and July.21/2011. You guys were receiving emails and I decided to call CIC. They still can not find me. I called the assistant again after almost two weeks. I said are you sure this is the date. She forgets always what she told me last time and this time she said it is August.23/2011. I got made. They holded my file for two months and she lied to me. I mentioned why did u lie to me. She said I did not. We sent on July.18/2011 but CIC received on August.23/2011. I said it is not possible. I told her I will talk to the lawyer now.
I found the email that I received from him on July.27 (where he said your case has been submitted) and I replied him and I told him everything his assistant has been doing. He replied me. He said I am making dates up and they did not lie. He also said that we are not your slaves. Anyways all I wanted to know when CIC received my file. I could have done everything on my own. Now I do not know if I belong to July group or August group. I was hoping that my husband will be here by December or January but does not look like. I have not told him all this :( Just dont want him to be sad.
