Guys, I have never called CIC Agents, however I need to confirm if they got my IM5476 and corrected my email. I tried to call but here's a maze of dial this, dial that

What is the shortcut to get CS on the phone, like dial the toll free and press 1-1-3? etc

If I recall correctly, I am dialing their toll free number then
as soon as I hear the voice I press 1 (for english),
then when the next voice message starts I press 2 (I think this option is for 'check status of the application")
tehn when the next recorded message starts I press 2 (for sponsorship application)
Then I press 0 as soon as I hear voice to transfer to the agent

To sum up: after dialing tall free, it will be 1-2-2-0 (and you can press each number as soon as you hear the next step's recorded message start)However, I was never able to get through on monday -wed (thu and Fri are better). On mon-wed when I tried the system would make me go through all steps but then it tells that all lines are busy and please try later and disconnects me.

I always dial 1-3-0 and speak to an agent. Don't even know what these options are, but i do it for a long time.

Just few cheer up words for all my lovely friends waiting to meet their families---More u think about it more it hurts so i have stopped thinking about it....I believe in God and i know our families will come one day soon...Its so hard to live without parents...miss my parents and younger brother a lott :'( I applied in april 2008 but didnt receive request for additional info in nov...after lots of calls and visiting countless tyms MP's office finally received doc's req in March'12 and now no AOR or anything since i returned documents on april 20 whereas who returned documents in may recieved letters already .. it bugs me like all of you guys but i always have to remind myself that getting upset wont help at all....I just Pray that we all get together with our families soon. God bless everyone....just remember everything happens for a reason and be happy..u r not alone

very well said, kandel...indeed, patience is the greatest of all virtues...i teared up upon reading your post...was frustrated with the long wait, we are all in the same boat, but yes, we need to be patient...our family will join us here in God's perfect time...

Hi Blue-angel ! So it's in Makati. My parents are in the Philippines.If ever, I would tell them to go to Malate instead - St. Lukes extension.Thanks for your feed back.

Just got an approval - June 23, 2012 for my parents. Ottawa processing. From your experience, how long is the processing time in Ottawa ?

Hi ConnieCL, I got the approval in March and my mother got the medical request in June (though the letter was dated May 10)...

Well said, Kandel.


Do not loose hope and hope for the best, be positive. You have come so far. Just think for them who cannot sponsor their family anymore and forget that CIC will ever open it after 2 years.

those who want to sponser there0 parents have to wait upto 6 years because 2 years they have stop accepting new application and if they open after two years and it will take at least 4 years in processing which make 6 years :-[

Little more progress in my parent'scase. ECAS under parent's UCI shows "In Process" under Permanent Residence Application Status. When I click the "In Process", it shows two lines. First is "We received your application for permanent residence on April 15, 2008" and second line is "We started processing your application on June 22, 2012".
