Sparkle please do add me to the spreadsheet and how do i private msg?

Hope you all have a super weekend.
Sure. Will do so asap. You can private msg by clicking on the username and that takes you to the profile page if that person, where you can find the link that says "send this user a private message" or "send a message to this user"

Rinnerz, I just saw your updated and it made me teary! I am so happy for you! (And I can understand the not feeling like it is over until you've landed feeling too... In fact, I think I will finally feel like it is all actually over after I finish the last of those administrative things like drivers license switching and provincial health care kicking in. Then, I think I will feel more ready to fully relax into my life here.)

Boomerang, I am sorry...

Hey guys,
Congratulations to everyone who's gotten good news recently :)
I have a question for anyone who's perhaps been in this situation,
How long do you guys think it'll take for us to get PPR after sending Buffalo additional proof for common-law status. Medicals are about to expire in early August, and we've been In Process at Buffalo since Sept 27 2010,
The request for additional documents proving we're indeed common-law was made in the first week of June,
Thanks for any input :)

We were in a very similar situation: my file was just waiting for that one stupid certificate they lost, my medicals were expiring August 1, etc. Anywhere from 1 to 6 days from when they got the copy from us (not sure, because we don't know which copy they used), I got my PPR.

Now, it may be different for you, because they have to actually assess the proof you send them; for me, it was just one simple sheet of paper. And I suppose there could be a wait if they haven't finished your background/security checks yet, but after all this time you'd think they would have! Hopefully it'll be very straightforward and you'll hear something soon.
