Damascus/Spousal since Jan 2010 or late 2009

A+M,

Why u r so panic in getting answers? I know that all this long distance relationships is hurting u but u need to be patient!
U applied exactly 11 days after me, u r residing in Canada just like my wife and ur husband is here in Iran, right?
If ur answer to above questions is yes then ur case is similar to mine and I'm telling u that everything is normal!! We just need to wait a few more months and then all is done. If we are lucky enough we might even receive the visa before Norouz.....



Hi Siavash...
I don't mean to sound impatient in fact I feel very patient our kids on the other hand are not so patient! lol! our daughter who was 1.5 when her baba left and is now a few months from turning 3 has started asking if she has a baba, pretty sad I am just trying to contact them to get our file number to put
on the medical to keep things up to date.
my apologies if I appeared impatient I am a firm believer that the more positive I am the more positive I will receive back And yes I hope we are together by nourouz

Dear A M

I can imagine how difficult is your situation. Hope yours will finalized very soon. To be an alone mom is very difficult.

Very well put, I guess the hardest part with this process is straightforwardly, in my opinion, "the lack of control". In the sense, that all of us chose to be with our loved ones, get married and surely live together. Our approach was like: what if we live in different countries, we will apply! But nobody signed in to a + or - 13 months of darkness where we cannot contribute, influence or easily get informed about our situation. We have to deal with this lack of control that breads anger which would affect the loving relationships we are trying to maintain in this obscurity that was forced upon us.

When I applied the processing time was 9 months but now I have to wait 13 months or maybe more but it is unfair!

A+M, you don't have to explain your impatience; however, ask yourself today if you could do anything to make it better, I'm sharing all these views with you guys because I saw how this whole process was affecting my relationship negatively. It is draining emotionally and physically, then I thought to myself that my husband is right, as he always tells me that we signed in for life; and the idea that we are losing time from being apart is temporary. Don't let it get to you even further! In the case of your medical exam, I read that other members have gotten theirs by contacting their local MPs. If that doesn't work or you can't wait that long just leave the file number empty and fill your other info; then, email the green slip to the embassy with an explanation that your file number is unknown to you.
P.S. did you check the sponsorship approval letter that was originally sent to your husband? which province is your husband at?

That's exactly my case too! I already had to postpone uni 3 times; my life like everybody else's is completely put on hold. What can we do beside wait?

Arezou,

u have applied 5 weeks before me, Ishala u will get it before Norouz......I understand that even thinking about being with ur husband for Norouz brings smile to ur face!
Having said that, try to be strong enough that in case the visa was not issued by that time u don't get devastated.
Be khoda its only matter of time!! One way or another everyone in this Forum will get their visas.....but when will it be is the hardest question to answer!

If I do not get my visa till Norooz it will cost much to my husband because we have to go for third honey moon and I hope because of his sake I will get my visa!

We can hope.
We can pray.
We can be happy.
We have choosen a hard way. And it is our fault. We have to accept this situation.

Still waiting!
u exactly expressed what I wanted to say and in a wider scope, everyone's else! Just what the doctor ordered!!
I copied ur quotation and sent it to my wife...... Letting her know that we r not the only persons suffering from this absurd law that separated us from each other. I can't lie, the negative impact of this long distance relationship affected our life during the last couple of months but what I keep repeating is that the decision to move to Canada was initially made to make our life better not bitter!

Anyone else heard of this story of a suicide bomb that has killed 25 in Damascus? I literally just saw the headline on a live news stream player. Horrible.

 

[WXYZ]

By the way, are you in Canada now and if not which province is your husband at? Mine is in Montreal.

No I'm in Iran, he is at Montreal too.

 

[WXYZ]

wxyz,

Our situation is exactly the same. My wife is a pr and we received the mail showing her Client ID number on May 5th and since then no update is made. My medical will get expired next month, I'll contact my lawyer on Monday asking him about the number we have to use.
I'll let u know about the results.

Very kind of u.tnx a lot

Unfortunately, this is the second terrorist attack happened during the last month in Damascus. First one happened a few weeks back killing 40+ innocent ppl and this one causing the death of 25+. Its really absurd! The very bad experience of Iraqis is now being repeated in Syria.
