Congrats Valy! I'm glad you didn't have to wait for a letter after all!

I just checked my tracker for my passport and now there is a note that says "Canada Post processing error; item re-routed. Possible delay." It's in Toronto now. Processing error? I mean, what is that?! Did they send it to the wrong place? It's just supposed to go to Vancouver - how hard is that? I was expecting it tomorrow, but now that seems like it might not happen. Hopefully they don't sent it to another continent or something (which happened to someone on here - seriously the wrong continent!).

Hopefully you'll get it soon! Canada Post can be so ridiculous sometimes ::) It does seem as if they sent it somewhere wrong...but at least they realized it.
I remember I ordered a book from Indigo one time, it actually got sent to my address but out of whatever reason the post man decided that I was not living there, so he sent it back saying "wrong address" :-X

I got it today! It was just a day late from their mistake in sending it to Toronto. So I'll be landing next thursday after waiting for 3 days in WA for exporting my car.

We're in the same boat Geminibella!!! How frustrating, eh! :(
There isn't much we can do, though... Just keep waiting and living on hold.

Happy easter everyone!
We're booked to fly in to Canada June 15th so getting everything organised for that. The passport came back really quickly, less than a week turnaround. Slightly paranoid about someone breaking into the house now so have it hidden away just in case :)

Mixed reactions from family & friends here but they are slowly adjusting to the idea and finally starting to see the positives from their perspective (somewhere amazing they can come visit someday).

I haven't updated the table in a while and with all the commitments and things going on here, particularly with the pregnancy, I wondered if anyone else who is regularly on this thread is happy to take it on? If not I hope everyone is ok to kind of get the sense of timelines based on replies to the thread?

Anyway, just trying to research now whether it's better to put our personal/household goods that we are shipping under my name (applicant) or husband's (sponsor). Surrounded by boxes here, have to be pretty ruthless about what we are sending, costs a fortune from Australia!

Hope everyone is well and happy and those waiting for good news will hear soon.
