guys, im just wondering how do we count the processing time? do we need to include the weekends? and perhaps holidays in canada? since the latest update in CIC as of June 27, 2012 for the first step(assessment of sponsor) is 82 days and the second step (assessment of person being sponsored) is 8 months hence, we need to add both step 1 + step 2 = more or less 10 months? this is the maximum processing time for the whole application to finish?


(need to speak in englsh for the benefit of step C...hehehehe..now I'm the one who is having nosebleed ;D)

HAha! LOL reading the last line!

Hmmm.. That's also my understanding chelsea.. Around 3 months for stage 1 and 8 months for stage 2 so around 10 to 11 months total.. But I think based on Manila threads from previous months, Visas get issued in total 5 to 6 months average... Just my observation

Hi everyone,

My husband passed his Passport last April and we're still waiting.. The sad thing is that on July 29th was our "1st Wedding Anniversary" and I am just praying that his Visa will come before the end of July.. I really missed him a lot :( We've never had the chance to celebrate our (gf-bf) Anniversary ever for 4 years.. so, I was hoping we'll do.. on our 1st WEDDING ANNIV.

Keep fingers crossed!
