Hi all

Finally my wife's application status has changed to "In Process"!

Hoping for a quick DM here.

Good luck to everyone waiting.

Congrats, Best of luck for DM soon.

There's a new procedure that will allow medical validity to be extended if your application processing is completed within 15 months of the original medical exam and the only thing stopping your application from final approved and PPR is the expiration of your medical results (or ability to reasonably land within the initial year-long validity).

Officers will now be able to submit a request for an extension of the medical exam result validity (as long as they were done within the last 15 months) and they can extend them for an additional 12 months without the need for an additional medical exam. The details are on the CIC website.

Hopefully this saves folks time and expense of extra medical exams.

Nice this is good news....but at the same time we may be looking at more time frame...

Is NDVO working on Weekends?

Based on trends.....since the strike got called off....ECAS seems to update on weekends as well.
Or it could just be people checking their status on the weekends

The only problem I see is as December is approaching there will be the holidays season and hence the NDVO will be slacking off because of the holiday season....hope every one gets before that....

Its good if they work on weekends until they clear the backlogs. Only if they really do "WORK".

That makes me nervous. I too hope they clear visa quickly and leave for a happy feeling holidays.

Hey guys !!!
Is it important to have spouse's name on passport.....??? somebody here who got visa without their name on passport ?

 

[sunshines]

OMG guys!!! Saw the best two words in the English language right now on my Ecas - Decision Made!!!! Here is my timeline:

Application received by CIC-M: 22nd March 2013
Meds done: Feb 2013
AOR: April 2013
Sponsorship approval and File Transfer: 16th April 2013
PPR: 22nd May 2013
In process: 7th Oct 2013 as per Ecas (Change in status happened post 10th Oct)
Decision Made: 1st Nov 2013

I had stopped checking Ecas from September 23rd onwards coz I was tired of seeing the same status. My husband had told me that he checked Ecas on Oct 9th and it was still Application received and Medical results have been received.

Post Oct 9th, he checked Ecas again only on Oct 30th night and that's when we found out that my status was In Process since Oct 7th as per the website and I guess the status got updated on the website only post October 10th which is why we were not aware of it when he had checked before on Oct 9th. So I guess my Decision Made status got updated on Ecas either 31st Oct or today 1st Nov!

So so so happy! Just waiting for my passport now and hoping to see the shiny visa in it!!

This forum has provided a lot of strength and also a lot of helpful information. Thanks a lot guys!!! My best wishes to all for a speedy DM! May God bless everyone with good news soon
