PLEASE GOD MAKE HUBBY FLY WITH ME ON OCT19 - AND SO HE DID!
Good Friday afternoon,

I want to congratulate each and everyone that received good news, and passport returned to those who still wait for teir shiny visa.

I was happy and excited to receive my first set of notes today, but got so desapointed after noticing that Kingston didn't start anything as of yet. I know my husband will ask me about it since he is growing impatient as the days goes by, oh my...

Anyhow, it's not like we have a choice.

Have a good week-end! Best of luck and blessings to you all :)

Just remember not all the VO officers update your file when they have completed something. There have been a few members here who had nothing showing as completed and they received PPR. So please don't be disappointed.

Hello my Jamaican people. I just came across this site and found this forum. (I know of course I'd find a Jamaican forum right off the bat). It seems like you all know each other? so let me know if I'm intruding. (I don't really know how this site works yet).

Hey Sammystorm,

My husband and I are going through a rough patch. It a long journey, a very bumpy one. Since we didn't hear from Kingston I was counting on that to cheer us up; fail...

Five years away from each other and nearly two as husband and wife, no matter how strong you are, a get together every four months, thought I knew what it would be like, but this over the top harder. Thanks for your kind words darling it is greatly appreciated.

Caffelatte,
I understand completely how things are for you. We've been having problems too. I can only imagine how it is for you having been in this process so much longer than us.

I will pray for you and everyone else on this forum to have the strength in our love and marriages to carry us all through.
I am so thankful to everyone in this sight who have supported me through this rough patch and I hope you find solice here.
PM Me if you need to talk. Anytime.

I have thought of a questions since I have some people more recently going through this process at. For those that have recently received their Visa's (or their husbands I guess) How long did it take from day 1 for this whole thing to be over?

edited by: chickey72 or something.

my sponsorship approval took 27 days
e-cas says-->
