Got 'decision made' on stage 2 this morning! Woohoo! Wonder how long it takes from that to the COPR arriving in the post?

Woop woop! Decision made on stage 2, 22 April! Decision being sent in the post! Can't wait to get it. Please can someone update the spreadsheet?

Hi guys My (Canadian) wife and I (British) have decided not to wait for the PR to come through and are moving to Canada on 16 March. Was just wondering, should I change my address and contact details with the London VO to my new Canadian address, or would that affect my outland application...

Sure enough Sweden, our stage 1 approval arrived in the post yesterday, 10 days after the AOR! Seems they sent it the same day we got the AOR, so a straightforward 1 day processing. On to London for stage 2! Fingers crossed we'll be approved by between Feb and Apr I guess. Strange that they...

I just did it as written on my email from CIC, which was without any hyphen or space, just a string of numbers.

Just managed to log into ECAS for the first time. It says: "We received your application to sponsor Ross Thomson Kilgour on October 24, 2012. We started processing your application on November 16, 2012. We sent you a letter on November 16, 2012 about the decision on your application...

Hey Mandy, thanks, that's reassuring. After all the recent approvals it makes me want to call the call centre too! I'll see how long I can hold out! Congrats to everyone who has been approved in the last few days! Onwards and upwards.

God I'm getting so bloody worried now! Every morning I wake up and hope the stage 1 approval has come through, and still no email! It's so hard not to wonder why other people who submitted after me have been approved already. Maybe because we're outland? Or because my wife didn't have a...

Sounds good! I could definitely live with it being 100 days ;) We could be in Canada for spring! Has anyone managed to log into ecas yet? I've tried a few times like it said on the AOR email, but it hasn't worked. Is that just because it's not actually being processed yet?

Thanks lawgrrl. Fingers crossed. I'm getting nervous now, hope we get stage 1 approval in the next two or three days then I can relax again for a month or two! I am definitely more worried about stage 1 than stage 2. I feel like if stage 1 goes fine then stage 2 will just be a case of...

Woohoo! Got my stage 1 AOR today! Only received by CIC on 24 Oct, so pretty fast! Fingers crossed for stage 1 approval! Good luck all!

Hi guys I got my stage 1 AOR today (16 Nov)! I'm so happy and excited, even though it's just a little thing! That's only been 23 days since it was received, I love this new speedy CIC! I hope the London visa office is working similarly quickly. I'm a bit nervous about stage 1, as my...

Yikes! This is where I get really nervous because we're at 22 days and we could be approved soon (fingers crossed...)! I'll be checking my junk mail every day now.

Welcome Mandy! Sorry to hear many of you are separated from your loved ones while waiting for your PR. I'm lucky enough to be living with my Canadian wife here in London. But we went through a similar thing 5 years ago when she was in Canada and we were applying for her visa to come to the...

My application arrived with Mississauga today, according to the Canada Post tracking system! Please update me on the spreadsheet: app received 24 Oct 2012! Now I just have to try to forget about it until we get the AOR - maybe by Christmas?!

Thanks claire_09, I used it and apparently it's "out for delivery"!

Looks great xebex! Wish I had thought of the paperclip/bulldog clips, they look so organised! Mine was just in a stack, with heading sheets printed out for each section, e.g. forms, my wife's info and evidence, mine, proof of our relationship, etc. Good luck! On a separate note, does anyone...

Hi all Did anyone else send their package via AirSure from the UK to Mississauga? My track & trace status on the Post Office website says: "Your item, posted on 17/10/12 with reference [XXXXXXXXXX] has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in CANADA" Does anyone know if...

Hi all! Happy to say we finally sent off our app yesterday, such a relief! Please sign me up to the spreadsheet: Outland PR - spousal - I'm British, my wife's Canadian via Mississauga and London, UK medicals done: 21 September 2012 application posted to Mississauga: 17 October 2012 (not yet...

Hi guys! My wife (Canadian) and I (British) just posted off our outland PR spousal sponsorship application yesterday (18th Oct) to Mississauga! It's been a hard couple of months of stressful preparation, checking and rechecking, but hopefully it all goes well. Pinklady, would you please add...
