Yes, I'm not sure what happened and why it took so long to be sent .. maybe it was sitting under the files on someone's desk. We're happy that it's here safely now though! ;D

Hi Bagelbagel and all remaining Julyers,

Decision Made !!

How strange to see those words on our E-Cas this morning ! How wonderful ! (fingers crossed :D) Finally after such a long wait. Our PPR was 6 months ago and the Beijing office has held the passports all that time. We did have to do repeat chest x-rays 1 month ago.

But now, life is changing once again.

Bagelbagel, if you are still there I would be honoured if you could update the spreadsheet for me one more time. I know you are soon to travel to Canada yourself and wish you all the best!

This website and this thread has provided me with invaluable information and support throughout the application process.

Best of luck and good wishes to all travelers on this path to our loved ones.

Wooohooo! Congrats FlashG!

Yes I am still here :) Excellent news, and good-luck with your landing.

I am getting super nervous myself! Might need to take a relaxant after the plane lands opposed to before it takes off this time.

We're very relieved it's all over now.
