Canadianinlove said:
thank you so much! at least they acknowledge when they receive it. Some VO don't!

I hope I don't have to redo anything - we submitted everything upfront!
Not always, hun... Like in hubby and I's case... As mentioned before. Never received an AOR from POS. Rest assured though in the PPR, whatever further documents they required, they requested that we submit it along with the PP.

I wouldn't worry too much about it, POS or CPC-M will instruct you how to submit it. My prayers are with you, my friend!

Dollydoo Congratulations!

your file moved like clockwork! I am really hopeful that the rest of us move quickly.

I am adding your information to the 2015 Outland Spousal sheet - you might want to finish adding the rest of the information. Link is below.

I am still in shock how fast yours moved! ;D ;D ;D

Looks like the VO's in the POS office are working more efficiently based on the similarities in time line for you, myself and Dolly doo.

So very happy to see that! I trust it will give those who are still waiting some hope!

Dollydoo I have tried to update your information on the spreadsheet for 2015 outland spousal applicants...
If you can, would you please click the link at the bottom of my signature and go to the bottom of the page - you will see you information entered - could you completed what is missing?
it would help the rest of us still waiting to compare time lines

thanks - but I will understand if you don't have time.

Hey hubby sent off his passport and they received it June 12. I just checked Ecas and it now changed to decision made. When you click the status to see more details and its says "A decision has been made. The office will contact you concerning this decision"

Is yours written the same because they make it sound like there is concerns the way they word it lol??
