Small update (but an update none the less!)
- I sent an email to Kingston on Dec 31, 2012 asking them if we should forward the on-going proof of our relationship, re-do hubby's medical and police check because they were expiring in January
- I didn't hear back from them so I emailed them almost 200 pages of additional proof (yes, I had to send 6 different attachments because of the size)
- In January my MP's office contacted Ottawa on my behalf and confirmed Kingston received our application, the email I sent, and the proof of our on-going relationship since we applied
- I ordered our GCMS notes and received them on January 31, 2013. I was gutted because all of the statuses (except the medical) stated not started and there was not one single note by a visa officer in them. The only glimmer of hope was there was some sort of update on Dec 15, 2012. But other then that nothing, ziltch, zippo, nada
- On Feb 12, 2013 I forwarded Kingston the email I sent them on Dec 31 , 2012. I asked them again if we should re-do the medical and police check
- Now here's the update (bet you didn't think I'd ever get here!) Kingston sent me a Valentine's Day present (well, okay, an email) which said:

~Your spouse will be required to apply for a new Police Certicate he's on it!

~A request was sent to the Medical Department in Ottawa requesting an extension of his medical music to my ears

~Right of Permanent Resident fee of $490 is outstanding not true so I emailed them a copy of our official receipt

I was soooooooooo happy to hear something from Kingston you would have thought I won the lottery. Everyone in my office was either cheering or crying!!!!!

So now I'm happy...for about a month. ;)

Great news Nev!! You are on the home stretch to the finish line.....

Glad to see Kingston is working....woo hoo!!

Woo Hoo!!!!! Great news!!!!
 
Is it bad if I keep asking for an update from Kingston? I last wrote them Dec 3, 2012 saying that I havent got anything to confirm that they got his application and then the wrote back Dec 14, 2012 saying

"Dear Sir/Madam,

This refers to your email below.

The application is in process, once a decision is made the applicant will be advised.

Regards,

Immigration Section
Kingston, Jamaica"

I then wrote them January 30, 2012 saying I updated my passport with my new last name this was more so to see if I could get more info back saying how far along they were. Anyways the sent a email for me to fax them the new passport photo and any pages. Our fax at work was down so I scanned and emailed it. They confirmed that they got the scanned copy but no other info on how far along we are in process.

How do I go about for more info on our application?
 
Thanks everyone. And congrats to all of you who have also had some great news from Kingston!!! :)

s it took you 12 months why did it take so long did you have any kind of hold up on the way. ??

It's been 11 months and 2 days to be exact. :P And it's well within Kingston's processing times. Our application, in my opinion, was very straight forward so if you're asking why it didn't get processed in 6 months I have no idea! :D
 
@ Nev - Well, well well my girl... what can I say? I am so happy for you. YOu know this is it right? You are APPROVED!!! They cannot request an extension otherwise. Big Congrats to you girl!! :-*

You can try contacting your MP and see if they will get involved on your behalf. Every MP is different. Some people have lucked out and received their assistance and others are told they won't get involved until Kingston has had the application for 18 months. It doesn't hurt to try! Good luck!
 
Wow!!!!! Kingston making so many people happy today!

Congrats Nevaeha!!!! that means that your process will be finished very soon! They sent for med extension in November for me and end of December I got PPR. So your next in line, get passport ready!
