Thread for MAY 2010 applications!!

[heatherusa]

Got my FBI clearance today. Woot! April 2nd to May 19? Talk about faster than expected.

Wow, it is like we are intertwined in the fabric of the great immigration blanket of life!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did my post from this morning get deleted or am I going crazy? lol

Modification-- I was looking for a post I made in another thread.. so yep, going crazy! lol!!

Anything new with our May people?

 

[drawoh]

i`m still waiting for the approval letter or the whole package back asking for more papers ha ha (Option C print out).

Hey all May friends.. lol or what i can call you all

i got new update that Mississauga taking a little tile for 1st stage as they have already a little backlog "(

so we have to wait ................

 

[lovebajan]

No word yet...I'm guessing we won't hear anything before June, if we're lucky!! I called the call center and they said it now takes about 62-69 days for a response...yikes, hopefully we will all have been accepted b4 then...good luck to us all!!!

 

[sbwv09]

They are saying the processing times are a bit behind but some people are still approved sooner.. so hopefully

 

[missmyhoney]

oh good...there's hope that we don't need to wait for 60+ days...and my husband has yet to receive our full application i sent him on tuesday or wednesday next week. He needs to sign some and insert his documents. Still i can start telling myself any day now...well, just practising ;D ;D

 

[campesinaj]

doing our best not to go insane as we wait....also avoiding the temptation to check the CIC website every day, since obviously there won't be info yet - but we're so anxious!!!

good luck to all - looking forward to hearing from the first MAY person to get their sponsorship approved!!!!

Is it just me, or has time slowed to a crawl since submitting the application?

Up until this point, my husband and I used to talk about time flying by...wow, could it really be a year since we got engaged? It feels like just a few months! Then May 17 rolled around and I mailed off the application. How could that have only been 6 days ago? It feels like at least a month since I mailed it.

I am not going to check e-cas for our status until 6 weeks have passed. I have promised myself this! Not until the 1st of July.

I also thought I would stop coming to this forum once I submitted my application, and now I find I am here more than I was before! Misery loves company, I guess.

Hope everyone is enjoying the May long weekend. I am terribly lonely, but was woken up this morning by a phone call from my husband which was nice. We then had a 1 hour Skype conversation before I got out of bed. Electricity is not constant in Nigeria, so we are never guaranteed when we will be able to talk, or for how long. He has ordered some solar panels from England which will be arriving next month, which should guarantee power to his laptop. I just wish the internet connection was stronger.

Take care, May friends!!

Bit extreme..but good for you..hopefully your app gets processed soon...bob....

 

[sbwv09]

Nice spreadsheet thingy! I spend wayyyy too much time on here too.. my hubby gets onto me, lol. I get on here while I'm at work and everything.. I'm bad! I guess this is really the only place I can find people who understand. I'm sure most of us feel the same way about that. I'm glad you got to talk to your hubby, bob'swife! Solar panels for his laptop.. wow. It must be like another world over there. I'm sure it's really beautiful but the connection/electricity issues must be annoying!

My long weekend is next weekend.. taking Friday off to go to Toronto, then just a few more days left of teaching, packing and heading up there for 'good'! I have to come back in August to get a medical test on my ovarian cyst and have our wedding reception, and then back. Hopefully the medical test is good or I might have to stay and have it surgically removed... but the type I have almost always goes away, I guess they just want to be sure

[bobshynoswife]

^^^^^ LOL...I thought so, but didn't want to make any assumptions!

 

[heatherusa]

ROFL... no problem. I would defiantly love to see updates to that list if you dont mind doing it. I am always curious about people, especially those whose situations and time lines are similar.
