Is that how it works?

I know there are quotas/targets, but I don't know the breakdown by VO.

Makes you wonder if they had fore filled their quota of COPR's for 2012 and that's why so many people have got their COPR in January 2013.

Hmm I had never even thought of it that way.

Wow.

Thanks for the info.

I'm not sure if there is actually a cap on the number of COPRs issued per year, but it looks like they have an amount they "prepare" to meet per year. I wouldn't be surprised if VOs work a little slower once they've passed their target numbers.
 
Hello everyone!
I tried to update the spreadsheet but it seems like I'm not there anymore. I haven't been reading this thread for a loooong time (since it took so long for our sponsorship approval) so I'm not sure if I should try to add myself there or is it better I don't touch the spreadsheet and avoid messing it up? :D

Ok, thanks! :)
I'll see if I can make it work and ask for help if I can't :D

Hmmm...so I don't know why my sponsorship approval date looks different, plus I'm not sure of the colours so I didn't add any, sorry.
I put our information after everyone else's because they didn't seem to be in order so I thought it might not matter.
In case someone can help me put the colours etc I'd be really happy, I'd usually try but now I'm kinda scared of deleting information...

I'm still waiting for mail. A week today and no mail yet.
 
I know this is kind of off topic, but should the medical exam be done during the application process or should it be done beforehand? Im guessing it will cause delays in the process if done during the application. Also, being a UK citizen, is it okay to do the medical in Canada if I am there? I will be posting an outland application to London.
