Hi. Please click link below for chart updates as of 11-July-2012.

Thank you to everyone for supplying information about their timelines. I may not be able to reply to your posts individually, but rest assured that you're all counted in. I'm glad to see lots of new people being added to our chart. I will try my best to update the inland chart once every 2 weeks to keep everyone posted on what dates are currently being processed by the visa office. Good luck to all of us.

Thanks so much for doing this!  It's so helpful!  You can update my AIP to include June 21, 2012 as well.  Thanks.

HELLO GUYS!!
I have an application under family sponsorship INLAND which I got AIP already, Immigration office requested me some documents and one of them is my police certificate from Russia, I am worried they gave me only 30 days to send the documents and I cannot get my police certificate yet.
I sent a letter to them requesting an extension of time but how long more they can give me??
I went to the Russian embassy in Toronto and they told me I cannot request it because I dont have my passport (I am as refugee here) plus this is expired , I went to ask for my passport to CBSA office and they told me they won't  give it to me until my landing interview.
 I am requesting this police certificate in Russia but I cannot get it also because I am not there, I sent an Authorization to pick up any document to my relative and maybe with this document my relative can get it, I dont know how long this process will take and I am so worried because they can refuse my application if I do not meet all requirements requested?
Anyone here knows what can I do or how long more Immigration office can give to me to get my police certificate?
THANKS!!

Hello
I have a similar case I was denied refugee and I did inland sponsorship. I or my AIP, CIC sent me a letter requesting a renewal for my passport you should have that included in the letter. You should go to CBSA show them the letter and they'll give you your passport back that's what I did I got it bac renewed it, then sent them a copy of the new one I had my police certificate done long time ago few months after submitting the application. Now just waiting for CIC to schedule me for the landing interview...
Ps: CIC gives you 90days to send the requested information. It's Not 30days

Hi guys,

first congratulations to the successfull ones! Envy you 
I was just wondering if there is somenone else who applied in December 2011 and is still waiting for PR? We got a letter in March 2012 saying that they received our app in Dec 13th. Does it mean its in process? No news/letters since then. It makes me a lil nervous but I guess its normal and I read here that they are working on Aug 2011 apps now.
And I am sorry for my stupid question but can someone tell me what AIP, DM means?

Thank you!

Btw. Very good website!

My wife sponsored me we were together before but we got married a month after I got denied from my hearing. I appealed to the federal court and submitted the sponsorship application at the same time when I submitted the appeal. In your case you haven't had your hearing yet so wether u already submitted the application or about to submit you still got time but the best thing to do is to submit the application before having your hearing cuz that will increase your chances if u win ur refugee case you can withdraw your sponsorship application and proceed with the sponsorship as a convention refugee. Good luck

[labhouise]

I just got off the phone with CIC. They told me they are opening additional information received on the 26th of april and I should wait another 3 weeks !! So frustrating. Its over a year now and not even AIP. Anyone else here in a similar situation ?

Hello, we applied in december 2011 and like you, we got a letter and and email (sponsor) from CIC telling our application was received.
As we are in Quebec we had news my sponsorship was approved and to continue with provincial MICC (Quebec is special) to get our CSQ which we got. But like you we got no news from them (CIC) since April. So CIC wise we are more or less in the same situation and probably our file is being shelved in queue and we should get news 11 months after dec 2011 which should be around end of October start of November for 1st stage and if lucky 2nd stage too...
AIP is also called first stage and is Approval in Principle (means the sponsorship is approved).
DM stands for Decision Made (by CIC).
We can consider our files being In Process right now even if they are not really showing in ECAS...I stop really relying on that information or even their website to know about the real processing date...

thanks for the quick reply!! my last question is how long does an appeal take? I will take your advice and apply asap just as a back up again thanks alot

For the appeal you'll get an answer between 3-8 weeks but take my advice and apply ASAP !
Before you get your court, this way you'll have two application at the same time if one fails you still got another chance.
