awww that is sooooo sweet Maybe by the time my husband visits me it will change to DM. I was hoping to have it early, as it is our 2nd wedding anniversary at the end of the month, which is cotton, so I was going to get Decision Made embroidered onto a Cotton Hanky and give him the plane tickets...but I am beginning to think I will have to run to the mall late and buy him socks instead...

;D

FINALLY our application has gone to "Decision Made" on ECAS, this is GOOD news, right? I mean, if there were bad news they would have emailed us, right?

If good news, SO relieved!

BTW - can someone please change the 2012 spreadsheet, it seems to be locked.

Many thanks!

Congrats!! it's good news indeed - if they haven't asked for more information or an interview, then it's good news indeed! now you can stalked the postman, but you can already celebrate now!

Many thanks!

I'll update you - we had to lock the spreadsheet as a troll was coming to delete all the information (twice, in 2 weeks interval...)
But congrats again!!

I don't think it will slow your application down, but you might get DM by the time you get the notes. I am sure someone on here recently just got their notes and they thought that maybe by ordering them it had kind of pushed their application along a bit as a reminder it was sitting there, or maybe that was the August thread :-\ Anyway, it wouldnt hurt and only costs $5, or free if you are in Canada

Are they free if you are in Canada?? If so they owe me $5! lol

I cant seem to find where it says that... just this:
Requests made pursuant to the Access to Information Act can be sent by e-mail if you have:

Completed, signed and dated your request;
Scanned your request; and
Paid the $5.00 application fee using the online payment service.
You can send your scanned request form and supporting documents (in JPG, TIFF or PDF format) to ATIP-AIPRP@cic.gc.ca.

or

If you are paying the application fee by cheque or money order, you must send your request by regular mail to the following address:

Access to Information and Privacy Division
Citizenship and Immigration Canada
Ottawa, Ontario
K1A 1L1

if you're in Canada and ordering your own notes, yes they are free, as you have a right to access your own information anytime.

Good luck!

Yeah I was ordering the GCSM notes... hopefully my second attempt is as fast as the first!

so does London take the full 60 day to process additional info ?? I know it says four months but its seems a bit of a generic statement ?

In my experience it didnt take 4 months... we got our first set of extra documents requested Jan 21st and the second set mid Feb and both said may take 4 months and we now have decision made! I think they just get a thrill out of causing panic!!!!!

lol I think your right !!!!!
