LHNB, the important thing is always remember that each application is different and will be assessed differently by the IO. We all have watched as some cruise through in record time and others seemed to have stalled. As the VO has no communication with you and any attempts to gain a glimpse into your status usually go un answered you will become frustrated with the whole process. Those active in thier day to day lives seem to fair a little better. Not saying it's easy for anyone, just having something to take your mind off it for even a little while is healthier. This can be work, hobbies, volunteer work etc, whatever you enjoy doing. It is not only you, but in my case (in many others as well), understanding that my spouse has put her life on hold waiting for the "call". Personally I always booked my next flight soon after I would get home as it helped countdown the days until we could be together again, some found that hard to do. Always keep positive even on the down days and help keep your spouse from losing patience as well. Expect some dis-agreements with each other, some get impatient where a spouse appears to have a lack of comittment into the process. Remember that God will only what they can handle, that lack of response maybe your spouse is overwhelmed at that moment and needs a little space, this is normal so help one another through the slow times. Both spouses will have to deal with thier family and friends doubts and may feel that pressure from time to time, this will evolve into making you both stronger and more comitted to your relationship. Once you're with your spouse and you are discussing the process you will be amazed what they have had to go through as well just to be with you. So in my humble opinion, find something you amuse yourselves while you wait, don't fret the little stuff that you cannot control.

Thanks suki, just jumping in to help a bit. So Charlie, tomorrow is your 1 year anniversary for your application and I was truly hoping to send you a greeting in CA this year but I'll send this to you in JA. Next year, hubby will have wine and roses for you, and remember this tale if your wearing red on VD.

Charlie is skipping down the road
when she sees the Big Bad Wolf crouched down behind a log.

"My, what big eyes you have, Mr. Wolf," says Charlie
The surprised wolf jumps up and runs away.

Further down the road Charlie sees the wolf again;
this time he is crouched behind a tree stump.

"My, what big ears you have Mr. Wolf," says Charlie.

Again the foiled wolf jumps up and runs away.
About 2 miles down the road, Charlie sees the wolf again, this time crouched down behind a road sign.

"My, what big teeth you have Mr. Wolf," taunts Charlie.

With that the Big Bad Wolf jumps up and screams,
"Will you get lost? I'm trying to take a dump!"

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!

 

[CharlieD10]

Canuck, that was hilarious, bahahaha, poor Wolf!

 

[Mrslwsn]

BIG congrats to lovehasnoboundaries & bestisyet!!!!!!! 1 step closer guys!!

@ Charlie thank you on the anniversary wishes...I got thru the day not too sad actually..hubby called me at least 6 times today...lol...
On the upside, I got a big lump in my throat when my mother in law (who is the closest thing to a mom as I have ever had) was almost in tears when she called me to say how much she misses me and she cant wait to see me in April..(I told her I may come for Easter)...I love her so much...can yu guys believe I am blessed with an amazing mother in law??? lol...one in a million! Hope everyones day was peaceful..this time next yr we all cuddle up with our significant other!

 

[Jamgirl]

I was just wondering... are most people's PPRs coming as a phone call to applicant or as an e-mail to applicant or sponsor?

 

[tintin79]

Charlie you can add medicals rec'd to the spreadsheet for me. It's said that from kingston rec'd my husbands file

 

[tintin79]

My husbands addr in Ecas disappeared over 2 wks now but still no update to his file, I just wanna see it say processing

 

[CharlieD10]

Good morning, everyone! Happy Hump Day!

Tintin79 - I added the extra info on that last post.

Jamgirl - KG usually calls the applicant. They haven't quite evolved into using email for official contact. I find that quite odd since it seems obvious to me that most persons sponsoring their spouses are apart from them and email must play a part in all of these relationships! It would be nice if they got more with the times, but..well, this is Jamaica. :

A little laugh for the day:


Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee.

The first Catholic man tells his friends, "My son is a priest, when he walks into a room, everyone calls him 'Father'."

The second Catholic man chirps, "My son is a Bishop. When he walks into a room people call him 'Your Grace'."

The third Catholic gent says, "My son is a Cardinal.. When he enters a roomeveryone says 'Your Eminence'."

The fourth Catholic man then says, "My son is the Pope. When he walks into a room people call him 'Your Holiness'."

Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the four men give her a subtle, "Well....?"

She proudly replies, "I have a daughter, slim, tall, 38D breast, 24" waist and 34" hips. When she walks into a room, people say, "Oh My God."

Have a great day all. KG, it's all you, let's GO!! NNNEEXXTTT!!!

 

[suki]

LOL Charlie!! that's great!!

my favorite part about Valentines Day....until Next Year of course!!
