Hi, I can't seem to update my profile to show my application details. Anyway, I applied for permanent residency via spousal sponsorship in Februay 2011. My husband's sponsorship was approved by the federal government and Quebec in March, and I received my Certificat de selection du Québec in March. Buffalo received my file at the end of March 2011.
According the online update Buffalo began processing my file on July 13, 2011.
Our MP has called the Buffalo office twice for us. The first in July, right before the online info was update (which leads me to believe it was only updated because of the phone call), at which point they told the MP's office that my file was complete and they had requested a background check from the RCMP. It was estimated that the check would take between 1 and 3 mths.
The MP's office called again at the end of September for an update (i.e. after 3 mths). Buffalo claimed it was still waiting on a response from the RCMP, but in the mean time had otherwise approved my file including my medical history and waived my interview.
No updates online since then. Tried emailing Buffalo, but got a response simply stating that the file was in process. All fees were paid upfront.
Is there anyone else out there who applied through Buffalo in March? If so, have you received your paperwork for your permanent residency yet? If yes, when? If not, have you had any updates recently?
I'm having a rough day, and finding this all very frustrating. I've been very patient up until now, but today I have a desire to just get in my car, go home to the U.S.
