My application was reached CIC Mississauga on 6th of April.

Do we receive anything before the 38 days later ?

My application was reached CIC Mississauga on 6th of April.

Are you going by the Canada Post receipt date? I was in by the seventh by that count.

Do we receive anything before the 38 days later ?

Just the zombies! 8^D

But seriously, it's listed in the guide that there's access to a review of your status online at the CIC site. See the "What Happens Next?" section of the guide. I'll have to leave it to others more experienced than I am about when they first actually heard a response. I'm not expecting anything before the word on whether I'm approved as a sponsor.

You can usually log into ecas ( to check the status of your appln) closer to the 38 day mark.. it was about 1 week before that timeline for me.

For those of you that already have a client id # you can always call the 1 888 # and find the status of your file ( until it leaves Canada). Just follow the automated system... this is usually updated before ecas does!

good luck everyone and stay positive

Hi everyone,

me and my husband have initially filled our application on January 28th, but never got any replay and after some time trying to find out what is going on with our file and a few consultations with the lawyer we have discovered our file was lost. So we have resubmitted. Our resubmitted file was received on April 1st, and I guess that makes us happy members of April Thread. Yay!
Good luck to everyone and hope to get news soon.

arunsgirl, how did you guys find out your package was lost? Was it signed for when it reached Mississauga?

 

[arunsgirl]

Yes, it was signed for. But after that, all we got (whenever we called and asked about the file) was "It's in progress" reply. After a while we started thinking, something must be wrong. At that time I remembered a guy from Morocco who's post I've seen on this forum, and he was waiting for his sponsorship approval for half a year already. He was also getting same replies, so we recognised the pattern and consulted a lawyer. He advised us to resubmitt and here we are now. Waiting for the second time. We are positive this time will go trough fine.

Hi to all,

I join this part of the forum, because our package was send late march and received at, I believe, april 1st 2011...
We apply through Berlin for PR in Quebec and I hope they all will be quick because I miss my Canadian wife; living in the Netherlands I have to do business with the VO in Berlin,the capital of Germany, where a possible interview also might take place, if they want to, which is a thousand kilometers from home in the Netherlands....

A quick summary, of our 'love-case'; only for those interested ofcourse, lol:

we met on a 2-week-holiday in juli 2010, in the Caribbean, Dominican Republic
spent 2 hot evenings/nights together, then she had to go home, I staid 1 week more.
it was love on 1st sight..... soulmates...meant to be.....butterflies everywhere.....you know??
we started mailing, calling, sms-texting, etc, instantly when she was back home in Quebec (Montreal).
I went to Canada in oktober, for a bit more than a week...it was perfect!
went home and daily contact through email, sms, phone, continues, ..... and continues....and....

I go visit my princess again in december, we spend time in Montreal and we went to Cuba together too, for a week.
We spend more than 2 perfect weeks together and planned our wedding.
The end of februari I went there, to Montreal again, to marry her, and also do medical in the beginning of march.
We had a small wedding with a perfect diner and little party with some friends and family.
We spend 3 weeks together, including a one-week-honeymoon again to Cuba (another area).
And then we completed the immigration-application with all requested forms and certificates and many pictures/emails/boardingpasses/visa-scans/etc... to be together forever and make every day of the rest of our time on this planet a paradise of love and happiness.
That would be perfect.... I can't wait for that to happen....
I am sooooooooo excited now, I wish I could press the time-fast-forward-button and skip the next half year, then quit my job and be gone....and stay gone...

ciao

Canadian wife, British husband, living together in the UK since 1999, married in 2005, first marriage for the both of us, no kids, no criminal record. Fingers crossed all goes well!
