Wow, congrats MandiF! I'm sure this gives hope to the other London applicants who haven't heard a peep from that visa office.

We're going to go and stay in Bonnyville, Alberta to start with where Tom is working. There was loads of snow here yesterday, but gone today, think it just wanted to say goodbye to me and to remind me what its going to be like when I get to Bonnyville.

Thanks spacey, I can't believe how fast it went through in the end, am really surprised. But at least we know London has been doing something!!

And so folks, after not hearing anything at all from CIC in London since I got sponsorship approval from Missisauga on 19th November, this morning, I received passport request in the mail this morning!!!!

How excited am I, have been grinning all morning and dancing around the house. Haven't had any email contact, and Ecas is still not saying any information available, but I have the PPR.

Am leaving for Canada on Wednesday and as soon as I get there, I'll be sending my passport back for the Visa.

Wahooooooooooooo
Congrats MandiF - so pleased for you!!!

wow, congrats Mandif...

it just pisses me off that the offices do not try to have the same processing speed. You'll be in Canada soon and have your visa and we still haven't received our AOR.....they need to rethink how this works in order to make it equal to everybody.

Thanks pateintly_waiting and medellinguy for the congrats.

I'm surprised it went through so quickly and don't worry if you don't get an AOR, I never got one at all. The first thing you might get is your PPR like me.

MandiF said:
This really needed updating, have been so busy with packing up my house etc and with my husband over for Christmas, I never got around to it, but here it is, and as I'll be in Canada next week and not busy busy at home, I'll keep it better updated.

I've added all the extra people and hopefully have all the information in here correct. Any changes needed just let me know.

Good luck and fast processing wishes for everyone else.

Thanks everyone for your congrats. I’ve updated PPR for Filipina, congrats for that as well, although I think Manila request passports really early don’t they?

I’m sure there will be loads more coming through next week.

Congrats Mandif....

Can't believe you are so quick to gain your PPR, your case gives us some hope for Lodon Office that they are doing something!!!!!!

Do you mind to tell if your case is simple? My timeline is close to you but I heard nor received anything since the sponsorship letter received
on 9th November. Both me and my husband is second marriage and I got 2 children from my pervious marriage, I don't know if my case is more
complicated that to delay the processing time????
