Love Young, thats sweet! p.s. they started processing my app on MY birthday and sent me landing interview on valentine's day :d
Adzeez, u never know, it might be much faster
wish u all to get good news very soon!
For me its been 13 months now /..oh and my work permit!. so my employers have been questioning those expiry dates but they are cool with it and said so long as i let them know once my situation changes and if it doesnt, i sould let them know because i guess they dont wanna be in trouble
yey BlackBerryBlack-Berry said:So i was looking at your chart love-young There are still A LOT of us still waiting for our letters Can we predict who will get first> i have a feeling all the PR etters will come in the same week possibly!...
Still, we are within the 18 month limit
on a brighter note. Today was my fuirst day of work and im fully employed!. Actually im over employed!.. LOL!. i have two jobs working 60 hrs a week just to catch u[p on bills!.
i will work like this until i can catch up on the credit card and cell phone bill and insurance then ill go back to normal 40 hrs or 30 a week...
I really dont feel like i dont hve PR. only thing is, my care card, My SIN number has an expiry date which sux
Can we do a prediction chart??. for AIP and for PR??. we can all take a poll and see who gets their pr/AIP first
sounds great even though its tiring eh.. hope u like ur jobs! or maybe the ones who have been living only in one country besides Canada, like me, would get PR faster?
I am the same way Love_Young. I obsess over the immigration. I think in some way its made my female problems what they are because of the stress. Stress can make you sick, grumpy, it can hurt relationships and yourself. It's easy to say, relish the time you have with your spouse because...insert thought here...but its hard to not think about the "immigration thing". However, to keep your sanity and health, you have to do what you feel is right and I'm sure others would agree that taking your mind off whether or not you will get approved would be the best thing. I worry about my bills, not being approved and why does it take so long all the time. It makes me angry that we all have to have our relationships scrutinezed /judged, ect...do waht you need to do in order to not stress, I am doing that to by immersing my self in my crochet, emailing, facebooking, taking my walks...and all the other things I do, especially taking time-the most time I can-with my beautiful husband. I hope in taking time away from the forum and dedicating yourself to other adventures, you can return (or maybe not) with a different feeling and less stressed.Love_Young said:I don't know about the whole prediction thing just because doing one chart is very time consuming reasons why sometimes you won't see it updated for a good while. Plus I feel that for people like myself that don't have AIP yet, it could get depressing. While you all get to make predictions, I don't. I wouldn't feel comfortable in doing so just because I don't know if I am even approved or will be. I think people would also get depressed about it if their predictions weren't picked before others or if the predictions didn't come true. Then lurkers and new members could start to think that is the actual time you will be getting it and they would start asking questions which is also time consuming. I mean don't get me wrong, it seems like a good idea. But I see more cons than pros for it. Sorry to be a downer just wanting to be realistic.
I guess it is just my jealousy coming through since I can't even make a prediction yet. It just wouldn't be right to make one if I am not even approved for AIP. I still have a 50% chance of getting denied and that scares me. I won't be spending much time on here anymore but I will still lurk, celebrate, and update when I can. Hubby is going part-time this week and to be fair and healthy for our relationship, I need to stop obsessing over immigration and these boards. I need to devote that time to him. I need to start treating it as more permanent (even though it is) rather then constantly thinking, "This could be it, I could be going home soon." And I need to devote my attention to myself and to other hobbies that are more beneficial like losing weight, drawing, photography, writing, etc. Anything besides immigration and here even just for a little while. I feel like such a horrible person. Tell me I am not the only one that has devoted too much time to immigration and this site. Did anyone else feel obsessive?
Blah I need a hug today! Ignore me, the downer.
