Hello Ka3far! Actually, I got the email on Sunday 24th in my junk, I'm used to check my junk emails that's why I saw it the same day!

Now the strange thing is that they told me at the Canadian embassy in Lebanon that it might take between 2 and 8 weeks to deliver the VISA! that's a wide interval of time! Will keep you posted regarding any new updates... Btw eCas still the same old message!

HI
I am sponsoring my husband from Iran . Our case has been on process since October 06 and hasn't been changed since. any one knows how long would it normally take for such cases ? is it the same as their time table or faster? I don't know if I should call Damascus visa Office just yet . and I have read posts about calling my MP( member of parliament?) , anyone with the same kind of experience?

Dear ka3far,
yes I know it's frustrating. I didn't get my passports back yet, it's the 3rd week already... I suggest you send an email to the visa office in Damascus and ask about the status of ur application. And once u get PPR, send ur passports directly to Syria via express courier like Fedex, it will be much faster since the VISA should be ready next day almost. But u will have to find a way to get it back from Damascus (maybe u go there and get it directly by urself)

will keep u posted of any updates. Good luck man!

UPDATE:

Ecas status changed yesterday to: "Decision Made" (instead of "Under Process") and when I click on it I get:

"We started processing your application on December 2, 2008.
Medical results have been received.
A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision."

But the strange thing is that I already got the Passports Request (PPR) last month (24th of January) so why eCas updated now? Might it be related to the VISA? Since my passports are still at the embassy it's 3 weeks already...

Dear Ka3far,

Thanks for your reply. I hope you'll receive your passport requests very soon! I suggest you send an email to the embassy and inquire about your application. Even thought they will tell you that's it's under review, I think this will show them you are really serious and it will accelerate your application. This is my personal opinion thought, it might not be totally true. But you won't loose anything if you try :)

Will keep you updated with my status.

Thank you Ka3far! Well yes finally got it. I'm planning to travel beginning of April hopefully and going to Montreal. As for how it feels...well relieved, so relieved because of the long wait. Specially that I am married since 1 year and a half, and I want to settle finally on my own.

As for your email to the embassy, they usually reply after 9-14 days. But good you did send, I am sure this will accelerate your process.

Good luck to all!

Hi, i applied to CIO in October 2009 and i have heard nothing so far. I have no idea when to expect them to reply ... not even a timeline! They didn't even cash the visa fee that was sent to the CIO yet. My noc is 0213 and applied as federal worker intended to Ontario, not quebec. I am syrian living in damascus. what is your noc and did you apply to quebec?
you should have had the interview by now ... hope it went well. Good luck anyway.
thanks.
