I agree, WOF, the red is " hot ". Wouldn't it be wonderful if the web site fired back up this afternoon and we all saw something new on it!

*sigh* and the caregivers are already in Canada...

I wonder what the PC objective is to make this happen? Are they hiring more people to process the PR's or are other sections (like us) going to suffer when they shift their focus?

I got a chuckle out of the NDP blaming the PC for the backlog in the first place! Please folks, remember this during the next election and make your vote count...even if your spouse has already landed.

Nev, I am a dedicated NDP supporter.

I just do not understand where we fit into this whole immigration picture. *Hands in the air*

I'm not sure how much it costs but I'm sure someone will be by in a minute to let you know.

The only time KG requests a flight itinerary from the Applicant is when they are down to the wire i.e. medical is close to expiring and the Applicant needs to land before the expiry date.

If you choose to send a flight itinerary you risk the chance of having to pay to reschedule your flight should KG not return your passport with the visa in it by the date you are choosing to land in Canada. Personally, I would wait until you have the shiny visa in the palm of your hand and then book the next flight available. Kingston has been working slower than molasses and nobody can predict when they will return your passport after they request it. And I get the inkling that Kingston likes to run the show and not be told when you need your passport/visa. Here's hoping they get back to the good old days when they returned passports within two weeks! But first they have to request it...

I hear you Nev,

But I would much rather gamble with the odds of having to pay a rescheduling fee than Kingston being given an extended amount of time to process the visa. From what we know they can process the visa in as little as 3-4 days. They choose to take as long as they do.

The possibility of them seeing a departure date may insight them to actually work If they choose to take longer it won't be a shocker as we have already waited as long as we did.

To each's own...I probably will just have hubby send an itinerary date for the hell of it.

O&O - when did your hubby complete his medical? Do you know if they extended them?

My hubby's were extended and they are expiring for a 2nd time on January 5, 2014.

Unfortunately KG can't extend them again so my hubby is going to re-do them so they can't add an additional 60 days to our wait time when they ask us to do them AGAIN...

Nev, that is crazy ! At this point what on earth could be holding them up ? Security check? I believe he's never left the island , correct ? Very frustrated for you

Awww, thanks Mrs. Davis. :-*

My hubby has never left the island; however, he does have a common name so that is the only thing I can think of that may be working against us... I am holding onto the hope/faith that we HAVE to be closer to the end than the beginning...right? *nervous laughter*

 

[Mrs. Davis]

Extended your medical, making you think it was just around the corner, then this? Ahhhhhh

 

[Mrs. Davis]

This can only mean 1 thing .... He's coming home for the holidays!!!

You seem more stressed about it then me and hubby! :-X

Bless you! :-*

Trust me...I have no idea why I'm so calm about things right now...maybe because I know there's NOTHING I can do to change the situation we are in...of course, my mood/attitude is bound to change at any moment!!!! I have had some very low/dark moments throughout this process and I would not have been able to get out of my funk without the Jam Fam!

Medicals expired nov 12 and they started working on the application nov 14. I don't know if they extended them emailing them. Hopefully you hear news now.

Ok, that means they have until Feb 12, 2014 to extend them so since you are 'in process' hopefully they will/have...it only takes a couple of weeks for them to extend them...hopefully they respond to your email this week so you know...

Come on Kingston!!!!! Make it a reality and not just in our dreams!!!!!
