I landed yesterday! :D As Jerry Garcia so eloquently stated, "What a long, strange trip it's been."

I'm a lady, tee hee! Here's the story of how I landed today, AND started my new job within the span of 5 hours! 6:30 a.m., my husband and I woke up, got ready, and went to the car rental place to pick up the rental car; we had a 7:30 reservation. We arrived 15 minutes early but they let us in...

Got my COPR today! Letter is dated March 7th. We're gonna rent a car and land at the border tomorrow. Best wishes to everyone still waiting, and thanks to everyone who works so tirelessly to track this process.

WHAT is going on? I just called the CIC Call Centre and the rep said my application was still in process, but eCAS says "Decision Made"...I'm not sure who to believe now.

ARGH! Today is the 7-month anniversary of me sending my application! WHERE'S MY COPR?! :-\

I got PPR on Feb. 12, status went to Decision Made on Feb. 25. Just waiting for COPR now!

Bonne chance! ;D

Awesome! Do the border walk anyway and make a picnic out of it, the Peace Arch Park is really lovely!

I'm on my third mug of tea and I can't stop shaking! I would relax and enjoy the knowledge that my COPR is coming, if throughout my entire life, my hopes weren't utterly destroyed every time something good happens to me. Better to be pessimistic and pleasantly surprised than optimistic and...

Thanks guys! I'm gonna be a nervous effing wreck until I actually KNOW what the decision is. I'm gonna be completely useless the rest of the day/week until that letter comes.

Status changed to DECISION MADE! Please oh please oh PLEASE let it be the one that says "Bienvenue a Canada".... :-\

OMG Congrats!!

Mine doesn't expire until 2020 and they still asked for mine.

When I moved up here in June 2010, I packed everything I wanted to take with me in an ABF ReloCube (like PODS only smaller). My heirloom cedar chest, my guitar, and a bunch of other stuff made it up here and not a thing was broken or scratched!

Oh man, it's like they're just messing with you now. You just have to laugh. Funny, I thought I'd be LESS anxious now that PPR has come...I don't think I'll be able to fully relax until I'm actually HOLDING the COPR in my hand now. AAAGH!
