Inland Timeline..

Hey jdwhite21,

If your file was received on May, you're fine now.  Even they showing on CiC website that they are
processing files up to February, they are now in mid-March.

Take care.

Hey soldier123,

how is your application? mine was sent to local office with no 1st stage approval. they said i have too many application and it will take 12 months again to process my file.

soldier123:

Why is the website behind than? (ie. says Feb. but really mid March) and will they tell us when they have begun processing? Also, is there any way my husband can work, I'm on maternity leave right now and this waiting is driving us insane and we really need him to work...

Regards,

Hey rich_m0nd, I've been approved today. I am soooo happy. hey,12 months passes quickly, you're lucky to get 12 months..
think on the people that is on scarborough or etibocoke.. their timeline is 3 years...Also I've heard that will be some changes
in Local Office processing times, they are working in a plan to reduce these timelines soon.
Did you notice that they are changing some rules in immigration? some timelines decreased a lot ..So stay positive, you will receive something before that. stay strong my friend, always keep this in mind: it is a long road but surely it is for success.

Hi jdwhite21 ,I am trying to figure this out since I sent my files and until now I really don't know how they calculate these timelines,the only thing that I am sure about that is definitely not accurate. I'm on other forums too, and some of them, people post their AIP timeline, that's how I am know exactly what they are processing now.
They won't tell you anything until they decide your case. I understand you completely, this waiting make us crazy...
uncountless nights without sleeping...We also had a bad financial time that I almost accepted a under the table job
but I thought " I did everything right..my file is 100% honest.. I've never in my life committed a crime..why Am I
going to do that now? Be at risk to be deported? just throw away all my plans and future with the one that I love?"
So I persevered.. and waited. Everything that comes easily goes easily... So stay strong.  Did you submit his OWP with the files? The timeline this year is going faster, you should receive something in October.

Thank you soo much for your reply. We did send his Open Work Permit w/ his application, we wanted to make sure that he could work as soon as possible. I will stay strong and I look forward to hopefully hearing something in October.

Thanks again =)

soldier 123,

congratulations. i'm happy for you. how lond did it take for you to get approve? i'm not worried about the waiting time. i'm worried about the situation i'm in with my wife. we're not living together because of some disagreement with the mother in law and she can't move out cause the mother in law doesn't work and being the good daughter that she is then she'll be providing for her god knows how long. so i'm stuck with this situation and i don't know if this will hinder our application. plus in the next 12 months i don't know if i wanna be in this kind of situation, it's either move forward or move on.

Soldier 123:
Okay so now the website says up to April 7, so what do you think the timeline really is?
Thanks

Will CIC send a simple letter stating that "we have received your application"? I submitted at the beginning of October, haven't heard anything back yet.

We never received a letter so called the 1 (800) number because we couldn't get any information to come up on the website after a few months...we were given an ID number and can check it now. 

Called a few months later and was told there won't be anything updated until it reaches month 6 or 7 as per timeline on the website.  So far it states the dates when they received the application and started processing application.  Nothing saying they received medicals.

Tick tock...the wait continues...stay strong =)
