Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

[gypsy494]

AmericaninQuebec Happy for you...Doin the happy dance. AWESOME NEWS !!!

 

[AmericaninQuebec]

No, no, no......keep celebrating. Was wondering given that the email looked the same (we're ready to send you your visa, send us your passport, etc.). I thought it would at least say "send us copies of the pages in your passport and do x,y, and z by x when you arrive at the port of entry of your choice by x date." Oh well, add it to the ??? drawer for our lovely VO.

Phew! You had me worried for a second! *Resumes insanely dancing around the room*

Seriously though, I wasn't expecting to still have to send my passport, but knowing Buffalo I wouldn't be surprised if it takes them 2 yrs to properly implement the change.

Congrats! I thought they stopped requesting passports tho?

Noooooooo way, no need to worry. You're home free, as far as dealing with Buffalo goes (okay, I guess you have to deal with them to take care of your passport and return it). Now you just deal a teeny tiny bit with the nice folks at CBSA. Funny how you were the one to get it after a 2 week dry spell and you were also the one that was regularly posting about the lack of PPRs; as we say every so often here, "those IOs must be reading our posts."

Loooool, seriously.

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!

I just came on to post about how sad it is that there have been no PPRs lately, and then I spotted I had a new email. I went to look at it and IT'S MY PPR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...

Hearty Congratulations to you!

Yeah, I found that part disappointing, but I figure beggers can't be choosers.

[Stumpedmom]

Congrats AmericaninQuebec....

I am still around....keeping track of the March spreadsheet and cheering you all on!!!

Have I got a funny story for you all...I got 6 ecas tracker updates...November 30 x3...that there has been a change and a decision has been made....well duh...hubs landed Sept 3.

December 1x3, your ecas tracker has been deactivated as there has been a decision made....well duh...again it was deactivated in early Sept. The decision made showed up on Aug 19....

Guess the tracker is just as reliable as Ecas itself!!!

I just ran around the room screaming and I'm still shaking! It took since February, but it's finally here!

The text is as follows:

Going to go read the links now and figure out what to do about photos, mailing, etc. I guess I got my Christmas wish!! Thank you Santa!

 

[doghouse]

Hi ddobro, can you please add me to your spreadsheet. My info is in my signature. Thanks! I just got sponsorship approval in the mail today (dated nov 30). Yay!

Congrats to American in Quebec! I hope there will be a lot of per this week.

 

[shelleydalyce]

No number. Just her signature, which is impossible to read. Oh well!

I think we dealt with the same lady. Shoulder length blonde hair....early to mid 40's?

Congrats...Let hope for more PPR

 

[shelleydalyce]

Anyhow, I wonder how long one should wait for their PR card before contacting the CIC? I've been told a variety of things as far as waiting for the card is concerned -- 1 month, 3 months, 2-4 weeks.. crazy.

I landed Sept 13 and mine was in the mail on Halloween

 

[AmericaninQuebec]

Thanks for the congratulations everyone. I hope mine is just the start of a tidal wave of PPRs this week!

 

[Eddy070]

It been about 2months since request for additional Document, Has anyone ever waited this long before getting PPR.
Keeping our fingers crossed, Maybe it's gonna be my turn next lol. AmericaninQuebec, What a good way to start the week
after about 2week of silence. Anyways we still expecting more PPR.
