There are so many things which we think and feel are going against us but only Allah knows whats best for us. We do not have the ability to comprehend HIS reasoning behind HIS acts. But one thing is for sure, HE IS NOT UNJUST EVER!. So if all of us r waiting, we must be waiting for some thing good, its just that we are unable to realise the goodness behind that. It must be a blessing in disguise which we will realise later on. Sorry for being a bit emotional here. Just wanted to share my feelings with everyone around. take care all

vesna--on friday it will be 3 months that my husband i will have been waiting to hear from the embassy and we are both equally impatient and frustrated. actually we take turns keeping each other from being down, from letting it get to us.
isabelle--i haven't seen my husband for 6 months and i thought that was bad!! i will see him when i'm there from dec. 14 - jan. 1 so i feel tremendously lucky when i think of your situation. i'm sorry for what you are going through and i really hope it's not much longer for you.
izzy-- vesna and i got together and had a great chat the other day since we are both in toronto-- we would like you to join us the next time!

Hello everyone, I received a phone call from Canadian High Commission in Islamabad this morning. The guy asked me why I havent provided certain information that he asked me one month ago. I told him I have sent a written letter with the information requested the very next day and I have the delivery report from the courier company that it was delivered in Canadian High Commission with the name of ther person who recieved it and the time it was delivered. Plus I have also faxed the same letter as well, before sending it through courier. He asked me the receipt number of the courier company which i didnt had at that time so he told me he will call me later to ask that. He didnt call me uptill now and in the meantime I have faxed the copy of the same letter today and wrote an email about it to. He even promised me that he will call me at a certain date to ask if I have been able to arrange the information. But he didnt call so I thought they didnt feel the need to call me since I have sent them a letter with all the information they asked.This is how they deal our cases with such carelessness. He is telling me after one month that he doesnt seem to receive the letter which I sent and infact blaming me for not sending the required information uptil now! I wonder if I should lodge a complain and write a note to the Minister Finley. Needless to say, the phone call which i received today is a result of an email whith my wife has sent to them one week ago to enquire the status of my application. We are over due for more than a month from the normal time period of nine months according to CIC's time frame on their website for finalizing 80% of the cases.

Hello ladies & gentlemen,
I got some piece of good news to share with everyone especially those who have been waiting for 5 months now. Today while at work my wife called me to tell me the news. I was extatic.
For those that are waiting for that call here are my facts:
My wife recived a letter from rabat around June 23. Around September 16 they called her & said they were just verifying the number I listed on the forms was still in service & its' been a hell of a desperate wait since then.
The nicest thing about this news is that her interview appointment is so close. It's taking place next Thursday November 22, 2007.
I am very excited now you'll have to excuse me I've got interview questions to go over with my sweetheart.
I really do hope the wait would be over for all those that shared their hoplessness & hopefulness on the many pages of this forum.
I'll keep you posted.
Good luck everyone.

Thanks for your greetings and well wished Raven, I really appreciate them alot. You are right, the fact that they havnt sent me a refusal letter is a positive sign except that its taking unnecessarily long. I wish everyone to be with their love ones soon and forever to come with lots of joy and happiness. The guy from embassy called me yesterday again asking the same question that I havnt provided him the information and I said I refaxed the letter day before yesterday and got confirmation of transmission too. They dont even check the fax coming in or what? Now I hope he must have got my letter finally and will come up with some good news in few days. take care

ihatewaiting: this is great news! so it took almost 5 months for you from the date your wife got the letter from the embassy, or maybe more like 4.5?
can i ask you a question? did your wife get notice of the interview by phone? how much notice did you have, between the interview request and the interview date?
i'd like to ask anyone else that question too, those of you who are still reading the site from time to time who already succeeded.
tomorrow is the three month mark for us.
izzy and vesna- sounds good. i feel like i'm fighting a cold so if it takes a little while to connect that may be the best thing. not sure i'll be up for much this weekend but hopefully it won't hit me too hard so i'll be back in gear soon.
so glad to read your news, ihatewaiting. great to finally have something positive, some action here! let us know what happens!

ihatewaiting-- i just realized you say your wife called to tell you the news just today. did the embassy call today and ask her to come in for the interview just one week from today? so the notice was just one week?

geetings brothers & sisters in'waiting',
thank you all for your congrats & I sincerely hope you hear something asap.
waiting1 neighbour, yes the notice for the interview was by phone yesterday wednesday around 3:00 pm morocco time. I, myself was surprised as i was looking at that notice to happen sometime around the end of the month, well I was hoping anyway. So it practicall took five months less a week. My greatest surprise is the interview is scheduled for Thur Nov 22 @ 8:00 am. I couldn't have asked for better news.
They asked her for birth certificates, pics from the wedding ceremony, pics from any trips we did together, print outs from our chats, phone bills if there was communications by phone, what she's been doing since we first got engaged in oct 06. She did mention to the lady that called that she had text messaging but the lady declined by saying they are not authorized to check ppls phones!!
Anyway I 've just got to get her ready & hopefully we could spend the new year together.
I will keep you all posted about the interview & how it went.
Goodluck to all.

Don't worry Isabelle - this is standard procedure for the interview. They want to see that your husband has the same or similar information that you sent in the application and that communication (i.e. your relationship) has continued since you sent your application.
I sent a copy of the entire application to my husband after I sent it to CIC - so he took his copies and some recent communication and copies of photos. Remember - they may be convinced of your commitment to the relationship - but the interview is when your husband convinces Immigration that he has genuine feelings for you (and so the relationship is genuine).
After the interview at the Embassy they returned everything he brought with him - including all the original copies of communications and photos that you Iwith the application at the beginning.
Hope this helps,
Tracy

Isabelle - do either of you save your skype or msn conversations? You can make pdfs of these and email them to your husband or if he saves them he can print some off. You only need a few to show your relationship has continued. Do you have any photos that are digital? You could email them to him and he could print them off somehow...
If he uses Skype to call you on your phone (pays for long distance), you can get monthly skype long distance history from his skype account.
Another idea is to take digital photos of your computer screen if you have a list of msn conversations (in conversation history) with your husband (i couldn't figure out how to print or pdf the list so I took photos of my computer screen showing how we msned each other almost every day).
If he doesn't have photos to take to the interview - he just needs to have a good explaination why. The main thing is for him to show evidence that you're still in a relationship and for him to be genuine and convey how he loves you and how your relationship developed.
Hope this helps,
Tracy

Hi Yasmina/isabelle, Re pics, chats, emails, phone bills etc...In the original application we included pics from our wedding only. But as I did go back to Morocco last August & we travelled for a week together, my wife is going to submit those pics also. As for the chat, unfortunately we only do voice chat & I don't think there is any way, as far as I know, of getting a proof of that. The phone bills I can't submit any bills as I always use pre-paid phone cards to talk to her. My wife suggested the text messages we exchanged for the last 14 months but I guess that is not acceptable as they mentioned to her(something to do with privacy). All in all, now that they called her for an interview I believe the onus is on my wife to convince them that this relationship is genuine. I hope & pray that everything goes according to our wishes. You see with these ppl the more evidence you present to them the more genuine the relationship appears, of course it takes some good verbal evidence too on the part of the wife or the husband in this case. Some day all of this is going to be just a faded memory for all of us. regards. |

If you are using skype on your own computer - it does keep track of all skype calls (computer to computer and to phones), chats and text messages. I don't use msn for voice - but I do know you can track and save all of your chat conversations.
If you don't have any proof of correspondence since you're application was sent - your husband will need to explain why. If there are legitmate reasons why - just be straightforward and tell them why. In the end it will be a matter of them believing your husband - and if he really loves you it's very likely they will be able to tell that he is genuine.
Don't worry about it too much - just be prepared for questions.
