Good News - VISA Issued at Buffalo, NY

[slm]

All,

I got my PR VISA's yesterday from Buffalo, NY.
I went to Buffalo Consulate in person and got my VISA's within 2 hrs.

They are accepting PR VISA applications Monday through Thursday from 8 - 11.00am (this month only).
Thanks everybody for helping me out and answering all my questions.

I'll keep on posting my questions on this site as I still have to go a long way :)
1. Moving/Landing to Canada
2. Finding right place to stay
3. Finding Job (Important)

thanks again

Congratulations! Buffalo seems to be quite slow for the rest of us though with similar timelines. I guess some people have better luck than others :-)
