That is great to hear... some won't help until you have passed the processing time
Ours has been great as well :)

Too bad it is now the weekend though :(
 
Yeh, this is one of those few times I wished it was Monday.
 
Still waiting for our notes - they did email me and said I will have them on March 26, so that is good! Fashionably late, but that seems to be the norm these days.
 
At least you heard from them :o
 
I was surprised as well!

It's now the 26th for us, but gives the time differences, we should hopefully get it tonight, or in the morning. Fingers crossed.
 
Canada Post started an investigation on our package to SVO on March 17th and closed it without telling us and when we called yesterday they said the package had been delivered... so we asked who signed for it... No one... Meanwhile our MPs office confirmed with SVO that they hadn't received it Sad

We called Singapore Post last night and they were very helpful... they are retrieving the package and delivering as soon as possible
This journey seems to not want to end Lips sealed Undecided
 
I got my notes, but am not sure how to interpret them (37 pages). They say my wife is a "recommended pass", but criminality, etc. are marked as "not started".

How do I find who my VO is, and if he/she is one of the slow ones?

It is flattering however, that under my Education, they have:
Level of Education: Master's Degree

Excellent that you received the notes

On page 2... it should say PAPER FILE
It should show the location and then Application assignment

Let me know what it says
 
Application Assignment says:
Assigned To:
 
Further down, on Paper File Transfer History, it shows:
Created By / Updated By: KC01824 on the latest entry.

The newest updated entry on our file is March 21, 2013 (outside of email inquiries).
 
On page 2 under Paper File
What does it say for Location??
 
It says Location: Registry - REV
 
Your application hasn't been assigned to a visa officer yet :(

The VO who everyone complains about is AG00894

See if you can find any future dates or bring forward dates
 
You have got to be joking.. What the hell are they waiting for?

The newest date shown is 2013/11/11 which was triggered by an address change (under Client Details). The next newest shown is 2013/03/27 under Eligibility which shows a Status of "Recommended Pass"
 
Recommend passed usually means an interview is waived :)
I hope that by your MP making an inquiry on your file that someone gets moving on it

There are applicants that applied 5-6 months after us that have already received their visas from SVO :( :'(
