Hi again pinklady :) Everything is up in the air at the moment, we don't know if he'll be coming in Dec. with me and the kids, or if he'll have to wrap things up for a bit longer with the company. If we're going together in Dec. we were thinking to ship everything, including the cats. The furniture and belongings wouldn't arrive in Canada for over a month, so I'm not sure it would be an issue at the airport when we arrive in Dec. Would it? I certainly hope that when the container arrives later they wouldn't go through the belongings to see if my husband's stuff is there or not! The cats would be with us on the flights, and that would take some explaining. Anyhow, if it solves problems, we can always book hubby tickets to Finland so he can spend time with his parents as well.

I miscarried last Friday, so no more baby in the picture. :(

We will likely mail the papers to Mississauga on Monday, or Tuesday at the latest.
Im so sorry to hear of your loss BT, I hope your ok :)

Oh thats terrible news, I'm so sorry to hear that.

When you arrive back in canada, you will have to go through immigration seperately anyway right? Since you are Canadian. Anyway if you mention having stuff shipped over and the cats etc it will be fine, you are Canadian moving back to Canada. Your husband can go seperately saying he is coming to stay with his wife. He will need a return ticket to somewhere though, even if he doesnt use it.
Good luck getting the papers sent in.

And again I am so sorry to hear about your loss :(

Hi Yasiin,
The next update you will see will be 'we began processing your file on xxx' followed by 'a decision has been made on your application...'
You won't know what the decision is until you get the email or letter.
Good luck!

Ok! Its out of our hands as of today! We sent it off at last....I was more nervous than breathing a sigh of relief though!

We sent it signed for - so we cant really track it to see it definately arrived - what is the first thing you hear about once sending it out? Do you get an email? or do we have to check this Ecas thing...?

Thanks once again for everyones help and advice....

the waiting begins.... :-\

WOW really confused..
I've read loads of threads saying people couldnt log into there ecas to 2-3 weeks, we got spousal approval on Wednesday 12th October and today Sunday 16th October i've managed to log into it.
Is that odd?
Thanks guys :)
