Medical was done 2 months ago but it seems they have yet to discover that fact.

I guess I could tell my wife to send in an NBI now before they ask for one just in case.

I would do that. Fook it and their system of hurry up and wait.

Did you get a confirmation from the medical office as to what day they emailed the medical to CEM? I would get that date and email it to CEM to make sure they can F00king find it. It should be the only think holding up your application. NBI's don't necessarily expire, ours was fine after well over one year.

That's a good point Steph. I had forgotten that the panel physician had not sent in my wife's medical results for about 17 days.

We sent all the details via the MP a couple of weeks ago, still nothing.

Still have no replies from CEM. ECAS still shows no meds received. All is incredibly quiet (while people here are getting their visas and DMs). So I checked my GCMS and copy of my application again and found that my wife's NBI has now expired. So that led to a call to the MP's office for a nice half hour rant.

I am thinking "what are the odds I will get an email from CEM requesting an NBI"? That of course would add almost 2 months again to my app after figuring in getting it, submitting it and getting the idiots to acknowledge receiving it (after all, it has bee over 2 months since medical and they have yet to acknowledge THAT). At that point I would be close to or have exceeded 14 months (coming up on 12 now). All for a very simple application with no major problems (that is, the only "problem" is that no one will look at it).

The MP's office is going to contact me next week with the status. In the meantime I am going start compiling a list of addresses to start an email campaign. You know, the usual suspects, Kenney, Harper, maybe a newspaper or two. And there must be an ombudsman that can deal with this (oh, and opposition critics, forgot about them). And I'm re-ordering the GCMS notes to see what is really going on, not the "story" they like to say. It is funny how they say they are working hard on it yet my GCMS notes tell an entirely different story.

She also tried blaming the strike. So I told her about my spreadsheet and said "hey, you want to know how many out of our little group got visas since June 1?" She said she would. So I totalled them up and told her 21 people have received visas. And that is only of those people who provided information. And that isn't even counting DMs, PPRs, etc. So I don't blame the strike for my application. I blame CIC.

I'm really tired of trying to be nice and understanding in all of this. For now on I am going to be a pain in their collective a$$es.



Holy crap...this really sucks scos. I would be so furious! I love how you used the spreadsheet to shoot down your mp. Which party is your mp from ?

He's a Harperite.

You know, except for one election back in the 90's my involvement in politics has just been going to vote. Next election I think I am going to volunteer to help get these idiots out of office. Time for a change of idiots.
