Guys, I just got the most amazing surprise.
I had received PER on 12 Jan 2011 and my Microsoft outlook
had not retrieved this all-important email from my gmail account!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you believe it!!!????
Thank you Wayne! I was taking your advice (on the PER page of your get2canada weblog)
and was adding the CIO email to my gmail account so that the email did not
end up in spam. In creating the required filter, i happened to find the PER email !!!
CIO is doing a great job in processing applications in about 112 days and this
time they had done it too. Wow, my girlfriend and i are so happy.
Best of luck to all those waiting.
and PLEASE update the spreadsheet...
