we need to be positive... no more June or July approvals until April and May are done !! :D

I agree alish......and I think that is what you will see....April and May......and they both shall meet and then June will start!!!!
 
Folks - newbie here!

My application reached on May 14th. I hope the backward processing continues for another week or two. Any AOR's this week?

I called CIC yesterday to update address. The agent said my application hasn't been opened yet.

Hope so too...The frequency at which I am checking emails has already gone through the roof! Totally unsustainable!

How do you post your timeline so that it shows up below below your login name on forum posts? I couldn't find how to do that.

doubtful.. the "april 23" update was done mid may
 
The next update will be the big update for late April and May applicants. A figure that most of us will be working to when trying to work our realistic stage 2 process

you may be very lucky.

yesterday a guy that filed in february got Decision made from london after only one month after file transferred. so sponsorship approval took 3 months and who VO one month.

london :)

for me in rome it will take 12 months ;(
 
what kind of background checks will CIC be doing before making the decision.. :)

hey! for the timeline, you need to post first 10 times, and then you can edit the settings in your profile to add the information - few more posts to go and you'll be good!

Good luck with waiting for the approval - it's a hard time, but it seems that waiting time is decreasing for people that sent it in May, so you might get luck and not have to wait the 90/95 days that April Applicants had to go through...

Good luck!

I am not saying they will make a decision in 3 months what I am saying is the majority of stage 2 will be using the next updated figures in the VO's as that will realistically be over 50% of the time of processing for stage 2 and will be my only guide until they update again which will be late October/ early November at which point I will be 4 months in to the current stated time of 7 months ;D
 
Hello May applicants,

I've been reading the posts here and I wish you all the luck.
I am sponsoring my husband and we both live in UAE. We sent our application on May 22nd and we received an e-mail today, July 17, stating that CIC in Mississauga has received our application. I hope we get the approval soon. We chose Cairo as our Visa office because the overall processing time is less than the Abu Dhabi one, but I guess it depends on the case.

Good luck and I hope you all get good news from CIC this week!
 
Congrats!
