Thanks mitamata, you are right, I wasn't able to sleep yesterday, I even keept reading the email for several times.
it is for real the light in the end of a long tunnel, and by seeing Azadi husband getting his passport, I guess their bad sentence:"please note this does not gurantee a visa will be issued" is for real a standar sentence, so they won't hold reponsability.
Do you have any advice for landing in toronto?

I'm heading for Vancouver myself, so not really sure how it works in Toronto. But from what I understand, it should be a pretty simple procedure. The only thing is it could take a while if you're "lucky" enough to get there during the busy time of day. I think I'll end up getting that, my plane's arriving around 5 pm in the afternoon.

I bought my plane ticket today. Good grief, why are one way tickets so expensive? You'd think it'd be half the price of a return ticket, but no such luck. The travel agency I called actually suggested looking at return tickets because they might cost less! Weird. Anyway, hope you find an affordable one. When are you planning on flying?

Well, if it is up to my husband, I will travel the second I get my passport back, without evening bothering myself packing my baggs..:))
If God wish and I get the visa this week, it will take 1 or 2 days to reach me by DHL, and I need a transfere visa to Frankfurt because I am traveling with lufthanza, so I guess I will be leaving toward the end of this month, because the begining of july is low season in my husband work, so we will be able to spend a week in Toronto , in Niagara falls before heading to windosr
1 way ticket with lufthanza is about 1135 $ witch is good, cause 2 way ticket in this season is about 1800$...and the transfer visa to frankfurt is 100$.

Actually in the last couple days I am living technically on Nescafe...Boujasim do you think they send us an email today?
I know that if you are picking up the passport you need to be there at 2:30…
Can I ask you a favor, you a member in immigration.ca “finaly damscus timeline” I was just check in there, I am not a member, so I can post, but Tram1984 need an advice concerning the authorization to someone to pick up the passport, can you reply on her, she suffered a lot, and now she is in the end, I think her husband did the right things, can you reply to her please

Yes me too and they are giving you a "bouquet" of red roses to apologize for the delay.
Boncuk sent us some heat I'm sure you would love to get rid of some.
I spoke to my husband last night he thanks everyone who in process of helping me and me feel better.
Rorita you are welcome to visit me any time and bring and everyone else with you we will have a huge party in my backyard and I'll be more happy to cook ( I only know how to barbecue!)

Cheers everyone!!!
