This is awe full news and quite disgusting 

Dear DBC Bhaji ! Good Day ! Today in the morning  i received a reply from CHC New Delhi for an email sent on 16.07.2011 for application status of my pre june application.I wanted to share with all our forum members. regards. here is the email reply :                                           Dear Sir/Madam,

This is in response to your recent email enquiry to the Immigration Section of the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi.

DBC Bhaji ! I am also finding it difficult to figure out the estimated time of processing based on this email i.e. highlighted in red.Which office they are referring to , is it CIO Nova Scotia or CHC New Delhi.Bcoz we paid fees to CIO not CHC , however i sent my RPRF to CHC New Delhi. Regards.

[destinationBC]

Bhaji

The cic website says 15 months from the submission of full file at the local VO

and in the email you received that says 2 years or more


Taking cue from the website if they are going to issue visa in two years from full submission then it is worth wait as i am a few months short of the 2 years 

BUT if they are going to take another two years from today then It is not worth the wait.

3 years in all in DOL Drums is not my cup of tea.

[tarakrs]

It is from the file xfer date but here the diplomatic statement begins. "2 years or MORE" means they are not even sure if they can pull our files within 2 years or not. I still feel all march and april file xfer cases can make in 2 years.

[destinationBC]

We are 2009/10 applicants and max FTD on our thread is MAY 

If they plant to issue visa by 2013 then the whole system sucks and this statement to clearing the back log and BLAH BLAH  is nothing but garbage

They have Meticulously planned to increase the back log by over 144000
So much for their claim,

And Guess what suddenly the post june 2010 applicants have also seen a slow down in their processing.

The last FTD we have on this thread is May I Think Though I haven't consulted the table yet.

If I am correct the sept month has been derived from the15 months written on the cic web site.

there is a classic case of One HONEYJACK who is in Process and has completed 16 Months

So I do not think that the cic time frame holds any water.

I am clear on this 2 years & want all to be clear. The reply was received from NDVO & when they say "this office" it is NDVO only, although all may not have paid fees to NDVO since single applicants have submitted fee to CIO but dependents & other fees along with docs are submitted to NDVO but I am sure it is a generalised reply applicable to all.

Now breaking their statement "2 years or more" if Docs/fees are submitted in current month last year i.e. Sept 2010 to local VO then minimum time period is September 2012 but when it comes to "or more" then it is infinite.

Just read it again...2 years or more... so u can't even claim for 2 year... it may be 3 years 4 years 5 years or... it may not come till u become medically unfit. They are not closing it by saying will take 2 years but they are keeping it open for themselves so no one claims...

Just playing with our futures.... I am getting frustrated when i think about the fact that MY FUTURE depends upon few decision makers who may not have been in the system if Govt. had changed.

I wish if collectively all people in backlogs withdraw their applications not only MI-1 but also those who are waiting since 2004, They will certainlly realise how grave is the sitution for people waiting with infinite timelines. If should be "MASS WITHDRAWL"

Imagine a person applied in 2005 waiting for his turn in 2010 & then realieses that his application will be not processed early finally applied in Fast Track under MI-1 & stuck in MI-1 also waiting he again applies in MI-2 & finally all is in backlog.

Since now we have MI-3 on top priority.... How frustrating.
