I think Kazi has a valid point. It would indeed be beneficial if people who have their timelines in the immigration tracker actually spend some time browsing this forum. This is not to be confused with being an active participant and proactively answering questions and providing suggestions or pointers. Even if one checks the forum on a weekly basis that would indeed be helpful. I myself was a passive onlooker until a few months back and looking over the discussions we have had, I found this forum to house a wealth of information and decided to be an active participant.

What we get out of something is directly proportional to what we put into it in terms of time and other factors. So people, don't be shy this is your forum and take ownership of it !!!
Completely agreed. This forum has changed the outcome of many of our applications :)

Thanks Govind and Anjuku. I feel really broke after reading Houra's reply on my comment. Its fasting month for us and I was just came back from my off campus work (worked 10 hrs with fasting) and opened the forum :), Its really doesn't matter, most importantly all of us r going through with tons of stresses in past days in similar fashion and we can feel for each other, in fact we should. :). Have a good weekend guys.

I completely agree with you and what Kazi had to say....let's take for example, getting UHIP with the PER e-mail ...i would have never even thought about that aspect if it hadn't been for the forum...especially since they would refuse you first and then you have to appeal with the refusal letter and get a decision in your favour...this is clearly something most people are not aware of and it's only because people like myself were constantly following this forum that we came to know about it...similarly it was only because Lugiovemma on the forum was nice enough to share the refusal letter from CIC stating that the key word ASSIST is missing that we actually came to know what CIC was actually looking for at that time in reference letters (of course now, even the word "assist" doesn't seem to satisfy them!)...it is only because aidina and someone else sent an updated reference letter, that i decided to send one too eventhough at that time we didn't even know if they would accept supplementary reference letters or not...so bottom line is, those who were following the forum on a regular basis benefitted tremendously from it...afterall, we all invested alot of money and effort into our PR applications..the last thing we want is to get a rejection after this long wait...and spending a little bit of time everyday on the forum will only do you good...once they refuse you, you can always look at the forum to help with a subsequent application , but that does not compensate the time and money you spent on your first application...but at the end of the day, it's your choice...good luck to everyone...sorry i just realized this post is a bit long .. ;)
Hi anjuku

Buddies,
Do you know any way to make a delay on the processing of an application?
I am going to graduate during next two months, and I am counting on 5 points of adaptability to add to my points (now regard to the CIC assessment I have gained 66 points) but they did not reject me yet !
How can I make a delay on their processing?
Any idea would be appreciated some time.

Thanks in advance

there is unfortunately no way you can delay the processing of your file...the only thing you can do is hope to graduate before they make a final decision on your file :(
