ESTIMATED TIME START TO FINISH FROM MEXICO TO CANADA....

[Bcmom72]

Hi there, my daughter has sponsored her husband to come to Canada from Mexico. They do have an immigration lawyer that handled the application for them.  The website for CIC states that they received the package on Sept 12, 2011 and started processing. On Nov 16th we were notified from the lawyer, as well on the CIC site, that she was approved to sponsor him. We are now waiting for the Permanent Residence to be approved from the Mexico City office. It states that the Application was Received Sept 13th for PR. The lawyer initially told us 6 months start to finish once it was filed. On the CIC site it says from Mexico City 14 months. I don't know if I should get my hopes up that they will be coming home soon to Canada, or it will be the latter. She has since gone down to Cancun to be with him until the approval comes through. Can anyone fill me in on their recent wait times from Mexico to Canada. His medical etc was all done previous and submitted, the only thing remaining is the crim check from the police when he is asked to provide it.
Thanks so much,we just want them home!!!

You may want to read through the posts on the Mexico thread to see how long it has been taking people to get approved recently - and also post your question there:
