After reading quoted post, I intended to reply line by line, however I have decided not to do so because it will not be useful for any purpose except for starting an argument.
- This is a public forum and all participation is voluntary and everyone is entitled to his/her on opinion.
- Information shared by all participants has one objective and that is 'To guide each other in understanding the process of applications'.
- There are active participants (some posting a lot and some very little)
- There are non active participants (no postings they just read).
So, with the sole objective of information sharing, the 'TIMELINE' spreadsheet will continue to be available at link
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArUeo9rxUq8EdHZoRmx2Z1F5ak9zcnBaYzdWTkNqVEE
Updates will be made to the spreadsheet as per the information provided by applicants on their file progress.
Applications are Grouped according to eCas status and processing stage (for ease of comparison at each stage)
| 1. | Stage 2 - PPR Received | Sponsorship Approved and Passport Request has been Received |
| 2. | Stage 2 - No Decision | Sponsorship Approved and Decision on PR application has not been made |
| 3. | Stage 2 - Decision Made | Sponsorship Approved and eCas status changed to Decision Made |
| 4. | Stage 2 - In Process | Sponsorship Approved and eCas status changed to IN Process |
| 5. | Stage 1 - No Decision | Sponsorship Application Approval Pending |
| 6. | Visa Received-Complete | PR application approved and visa received |
*Applications which have received passport request, transferred to CPP-O or LVO are sorted according to Transfer Date as at this stage (IMHO), it is an important date.
*Other applications are sorted according to Date applied
*Applications are grouped by visa office i.e. CPP-O, LVO
Information in the spreadsheet is for everyone, it may be useful to some, many or all...
