I included my marriage certificate and bank statement of mine n wife's and also mentioned that I have applied for pr application. I sent my pr and my visitor at the same time and at that time I was kind of illegal. Naz

Thank you Missha, your advice is helpful.
We have collected all the necessary forms today and will be starting with this very first 'baby step' filling in and including all relevant documentations.
One question, is it necessary to get legal help or they call representative to apply for the sponsorship? I see most people in this forum doesn't...so I presume I don't need one too. Some lawyers says its better to have a representative as statistics tells that to have a legal aid is much better.
Your or anyone's advice please.

Hey everyone. I called CIC this morning and they told me that my app got approved. They have sent out my approval letter with my OWP. I was so shocked that they sent out my OWP cuz I forgot to attach it to my pr application. I sent it weeks after. So she said that I should receive my letter this week or next week latest.
I pray that everyone gets approved soon. Just remember there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
LOL you know what....I was looking at this post..and read the app date in the side profile which says 07-01-2011. Of course being American that means July 1st to me. BUTTTTTT it means January in this date format sooooooo There ya have it..... Maybe tomorrows jump will be huge!

Hi irishred,
My wife knows a person and her husband got OWP earlier then the official processing time. They applied before her pregnancy. I think it happened because she was a sponsor.
Hi TU160 I sent my sons birth certificate today via courier. As you say, my husband is sponsoring me so it might not make any difference. Worth a try though !!

i can tell you that i'm currently using a lawyer and i'm still waiting for an answer for CIC. 11 onths so far and hopefully this week i'll have some sort of answer. The lawyer helps you set up all the paper work so then you don't miss any piece of paper and gives you help with any detail that you may need to give. Having said that it has made ZERO difference in timing. I needed the lawyer because i wanted it to be organized and precise, other then that no time change on the processing time. Honestly it's a choice, i hope it sort of helped you in your decision.

It is not necessary to get the legal help. Since the whole application process is very self explanatory. It should not be hard to get things done as alot of people file for their own applications. A couple of things to keep in mind as the application should have 1) cover letter 2) all required forums 3) all required proofs(Financial and emotional) and documents 4) Medical should be done at the last as it is valid for a year. As the processsing time increase to 11-12 months, try to get it a day before sending your application. In that scenrio, you would be avoided from re-doing the medical 5) Since your wife is from Singapore, and she would be needing Police Clearance. CIC has to send to an appeal letter to you first and then you would request the Police Clearance. This all can be done in 2nd stage. If she is the citizen of singapore, that might make things difference. Good Luck with your application

Personally I used an immigration consultant and honestly, I could not have done it without him. It is not that easy to fill out the forms. There are so many little things you need to know and he gave me so many pointers on how we can make our application better. I was not going to sit here day after day and go through everything with a fimne tooth comb. Now with this being said, I PRAY that we don't get transferred. I cannot wait any longer.
Now, with more important business.
We have to get Angus back. Who is with me? Say I! If you want Angus back just add your name:
