Anybody with good news yet? If we are not getting any we may as well be happy for others. I am tempted to email them again but resisting for now. Trying to channel my energy elsewhere.

Kindly allow me to hit your inbox. Seems like we may just have stuff to talk about. Wacha nitakuemail in a few hours. Naks is better than ever!!! Already missing the place :(

Going to visit my grandma and my favourite place in Kenya, NAKURU!!!!!!! I hope some of us if not all of us will have good news by next week. All the best guys. Keeping fingers crossed!

Aawwww ELOH, how sad. I wish we could all give you hugs and listen to you vent (if you express pain this way). It must be terribly hard. I would love to come up with some strong encouraging words to sooth but I don't think anything I say will be good enough. You may not want to hear this right...

Hi Samstar, I can't even begin to imagine what your are going through with your wife pregnant and the two of you not being together. I sincerely hope you can be together soon. All in all, congrats on the baby. I would have to agree with waitin_vain, you REALLY don't want to piss off the people...

It is VERY VERY VERY hard being separated/ apart. That is the first thought that hits you when you wake up in the morning, the thought that sneaks up on you all day and the prayer that ends your every day. Just to be together again. It is tough. Ninajaribu jujiencourage na God's timing but...

Hon, Excited = shopping, and sad = shopping. Those are good shopping coz you get to be spoiled in the process. Angry shopping is the kind you don't want!!!! That means you gotta keep me happy and smiling all the way (and lucky for me/us I KNOW YOU will). xoxo

Hi Mrembo, Thank you very much for your wishes. I hope the VO enjoys reading the story too but most importantly I hope they give me a visa (ASAP). However, with that said, we are waiting for some documents that seem to be taking forever and they haven't told us how long we can expect to wait...

Do we need to speak good Spanish to communicate with these contacts? My husband and I have barely passable Spanish. The good news is that 5 to 7 days sounds very encouraging. Thank you very much. Have you actually used these people or known someone for whom it has worked successfully?

Hi SEVEN07, Have you gotten any info on the new changes? Is it possible to use a contact to help? My husband and I got an email from the Nairobi office saying that they are waiting for my police certificate from Venezuela. Having lived there and knowing how government processes can take...

Hi Samstar, Have you emailed them of late? My husband just got a reply (after three weeks) and it was very helpful. They told us that they are waiting for Mississauga to forward our receipt as well as waiting for my police certificate from some other country I had lived in for some time...

It would also probably depend on how crucial the info is. If it is not extremely important then go ahead but just make sure it is clear. After all it is hopefully the one place. You can also check whether it is in the middle e.g page 3 of 4 because if it is you can retype the details on a new...

That was here in Nairobi at the Serena Hotel. Universities from Canada were advertising themselves while the CIC Nairobi agents were talking to interested people about the benefits of studying in Canada and about how to make getting a student visa easy. It was very informative but I did not get...

All the best. Keep fingers crossed.

I will keep fingers crossed for you guys. I can't imagine what you are going through :o :o :o. I was going to post our latest woes with CIC but after reading about those who haven't gotten past stage1 I felt petty and ungrateful. I empathize with you and wish you a speedy process. Have you...

Hi Solesilence, I attended a study in Canada forum about two weeks ago and it was facilitated by CIC VO's Nairobi. They seemed to be insistent on submission of typed documents signed by the relevant person. Under which category are you applying? I am asking because you talk about financial...

You can send the package now(considering that the earlier you start the better) and see what happens. I don't think they will return the package based on that. In the meantime apply for another PC and keep it handy so that should CIC ask for it you will send it immediately. All the best!!! The...

Hi Camelboy, I don't know what leads to an applicant being interviewed. However, from what I have seen on the forum I would say presence of red flags. Things like a way too short relationship, person being sponsored sending money to the sponsor, false information, insufficient proof of...

Hi Princessa, Happy for you!!! It is always great when we get any sign of the process happening behind the scenes. I hope you get the passport request soon. Have you paid the right of PR fee? We sincerely wish we paid at the beginning of the process then we would not be waiting this long. My...

I doubt they would allow us to know who is handling our file. They don't even sign the documents they send us using actual names (just something that looks like a small sign). But it is understandable because otherwise we would all be on their case. Plus you can never know how people will react...
