Frankly, smiling is enough!
How I wish we could do something more useful than praying. Maybe we should start a petition to show our dissatisfaction to Damascus. I think they have to hear our voice and understand that our life is becoming bitter instead of better by the way they r working!!!!! They have to speed up the process.....oooooof I'm really frustrated at the moment since my wife is crying 24/7 and there is nothing that I can do About it!!

Hey girls!! Please be patient and trust me ur husbands r as worried as u r!
I wish they could hear our voice and our complains too.
But do you really believe that they care about our devastated situation and our dissatisfaction?
They do not even consider our emails or telephone calls!
I think our lives are not important for them at all! :(

Hi A+M
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/iran/visas/processing-traitement.aspx?view=dm

As I said earlier it is 120 days now. U can check it for ur self. A friend of mine applied for a visit visa around 10 weeks ago and hasn't received it yet.
I think they politely say that " do not apply for a visiting visa". What does it mean 120 days? If we want to go to Mars it is faster than it! :p

Arezou jan,
It is not polite anymore! Just review the whole process. They get ur passport and after 4 MONTHS they reject u! Lol.....this is the price of living in developing countries.

thanks arezou jan, well seeing as how there is no more closures for a few months it means processing will speed up and just like last year they dont want to have 2010 files in the mix so im thinking within the next couple of weeks all 2010's will be done , unless there is some kind of an exception or problem with the cases

This is the site that I was looking at that breaks down how long for each country. Either way 3 or 4 months isn't a huge difference!! Too long and too unfair :( From what I noticed Tehran has the longest processing for visitor visa out of all the visa offices!!! Good luck Erina if you do decide to apply!

Ethically they have to care. What do they exactly do!?
They have to go through the forms, check some photos from our weddings and honeymoon and check medical documents....why should it take so much time for them it issue the visas?!!
