hopefully soon!
So in July-August I had contacted my MP to check into our file for us. He said that the rep from Kingston said our file was pending initial review but to call back around Christmas....I was at work today when he called me and said that he contacted Kingston again and was told that our file was in queue to be reviewed...so to me still in the same boat as in July but I thought it was nice that he followed up..he said that the person he spoke to said if I dont here anything before April to call back because that was my "Bring Forward date". So I was like that's really nice of you to follow up with out me asking...he said he doesn't follow up every month and only when Kingston advises to followup again. He said when he asks for the status of a case they bring up the file and he would be affraid that I wouldn't get refiled back in my position in the queue but starting all over again..although I felt happy that he checked in...It makes me super nervous that we might lose our spot in queue...

Try and not be nervous, what's done is done.

I would prefer having a pro-active mp over one that doesn't give a crap.

Hopefully you will hear from KG in April or see some movement by then.
:D

Nev I asked before Mrs Parkin and I haven't gotten a response, one a the lucky ones eh. They did say if your email is not on the form they wouldn't reply to it, I wonder if they only would reply to my lawyer, but my email was on my questionnaire.
Same here! I've emailed three times.. and no response at all maybe i should try using my hubbys email?

WOW!!!! Jahdes I can't believe what you have had to go through I'm completely speechless that office is just a hot mess. I'm real sorry we all have to deal with them. I hope KGN locates your passports or that they will appear at your lawyers office. This office is getting worse each day.

I personally would get ahold of an MP or Miss Portia and make a stink about it...this just shows KG doesn't know what the heck they are doing over there...worth a shot!!! The Canadian embassy in KG just did something totally illegal!!!

You know, I might be a little ignorant here, but somehow I think this might work out in your favour. If Kingston screwed up legally, they might have to back track their initial decision. I might be wrong, but EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON, even things we don't understand......... Get a hold of your MP and get your lawyer to write a threatnening letter demanding this be corrected, and question their inability to do their jobs correctly. Maybe that denied can also be changed to Approved
