I have a very big feeling that 2013 applicants would start listening something from CIC at start of coming September. It seems CIC is busy with 3 types of 'series'. (I THINK)
  • Applications of Nov Dec 2011 and Jan Feb 2012 are being finalized
  • People whose re medicals were called in Nov 2013 Dec 2013 are getting passport requests
  • Applicants of Aug to Oct 2012 are getting re medical calls
  • Some rare and lucky late 2013 cases were done for "bharam rackna" of CIC
Now the missing people are mid 2012 (April-July 2012), Nov-Dec 2012 and early 2013. By judging the pace of CIC London in just last 4 months (Feb to June 2014), it seems, WE 2013 people would be next in list. inshAllah.
All above assumptions are just MY OWN ASSUMPTIONS. If they went wrong or you are not agreed to them, please "mujy marna mut

Based on the data reported by CIC on their website, almost 90% applicants of 2013 applied in first 6 months. Only 9 applications were filed in last 6 months of 2013 (And out of those these 9, 3-4 applications were done on fast track. So once 'year 2013' gets 'in' in CIC, it wouldn't take much time, hope fully. InshAllah.

Total 86 cases under "spouse parents and children" category were filed in Islamabad office in 2013. While total of all cases filed to Islamabad office in all categories in 2013 is 216. Here is a month wise list by CIC of total filed cases in 2013 under "spouse parents and children" category.

Jan Feb Mar Apr May June July Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Total 2013
8 27 14 10 12 6 4 0 2 2 0 1 86
.

Seems about right ... I have the same assumptions except I'm expecting them to open the early 2013 stream, regular stream instead of picking a couple, starting in October; of course anything earlier would be nothing less than relief.
