You know what really sucks.... Going on the march forum and watching those who applied with me get "decision made" cuz they have a fast VO... And we get 16 months! So happy for those 3 people that Manila gave pr's to yesterday.

But hey everything in it's time! Kingston, we love you! Don't mean to bad mouth you! Please working out for us!!!! Pretty please!!

Singing, "I'll be home...... For Christmas! ;)

Good night fam!

I feel you, but I took comfort in this little known fact: some VO's, particularly New Delhi and Manila request your passport as soon as they begin working on your file, so it's different from us. It's not a sign of finality or even decision made, as many people wait several months after surrendering their passport before getting PR. So take all those ppr's with a grain of salt!

I am so happy to have found this forum and to meet people who are going through exactly what my husband and I are experiencing. Our friends and family always ask how the immigration process is going and we appreciate it; however, they don't understand it quite the way all of you will. I'd love if you added our stats to your spreadsheet so I/we can feel part of the 'forum family'.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome; it's so nice to have found a place where we can all relate to one another.

Here is my/our (long) story (short):

I travelled to Negril, JA in January 2009 for a friend's wedding and my husband (to be) was working at the resort I was staying at. We spent a lot of time talking and I thought he was a really nice guy and that was it. He asked me for my phone number and I honestly didn't think he would ever call me. As soon as I returned to Canada and walked through my front door there was a message from him wanting to know if I made it home okay. I returned to Negril in May 2009 to celebrate my birthday and as they say, the rest is history. We got engaged in August 2010, and were married in January 2012, three years to the day we met.

As a side note (incase anyone cares!) I live in Manitoba.

Thanks again for making me feel welcome.

Hi Jamgirl!

We're provincial neighbours! :) It looks like you (hopefully) are near the end of the immigration process - best of luck!!!!!
