At long last, we finally received the magical email today of sponsorship approval. No AOR, just the approval email. It came from the Ottawa pilot office.

We're rooting for all the May applicants still waiting for approval. It's coming soon.
yeah!!!! congrats.......!!! what is the date of your letter lampchop???? ;D

my boyfriend managed to get through :) They said they are still in the progress of reviewing it but we will hear VERY soon, the guy kept repeating it would be VERY soon!! ahh! I hope that means by the end of the day haha

They said to keep checking his inbox! So hopefully that means it will be a nice quick email.

Congrats on the approvals today so far!

Thanks for the encouragement! :) I hope so too!! I've always had this feeling that today would be the day, because it's exactly 3 months after we submitted the app.. but another girl I met in the forum also submitted her app on the same day and she already got her approval on July 17, exactly 1 month ago..

I'll keep my fingers crossed for the few of us who are still left in the May spreadsheet!!! *Positive thoughts!*

Me too Siddi, I called yesterday and my file has been open for over 2 weeks now and no decision. Received April 30. I'm totally eligible for sponsorship. ??? I don't know what's taking so long. :'(
