    **OCTOBER 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS**

    I just landed today at the Rainbow Bridge! The officer was super nice and there was only one person ahead of me. It took longer for them to call my name (about 10 min) than how long it took to actually get the process done.

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    Hi guys! I was wondering how long did it take to get COPR after your background check changed to 'In Progress'? Mine just turned to 'in progress' at Ottawa VO, so was just seeing what other people's timelines were. Thanks!

    **NOVEMBER 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS**

    Hi guys! I was wondering what "decision made" means under "Sponsorship Application Status" on eCas? We haven't received any correspondence, but I've read that sometimes SA emails take a while since they send them in bunches. I just hope that decision made means good news, hah. Many thanks!
