I was there few times too, my hubby was born there. It is actually super hot in the summer.
I was there only once and in the winter... well the end of the winter.

WTH... they renewed?

Yesterday we added 10 pages.

I just read someone's notes and became very, very sad.
Yup, they extended...:mad: Still not impressed with they way they do things

So, still actively looking to haul my tail right on out!

Who's notes made you sad and WHY? Man,.....i forgot how quickly pages go by on here.
I did look at the spread sheet and it looked like things dead stopped....:(

Hi all!

Just received an update from my rep. He learned recently there's been a 20-fold increase in marriage fraud between US/Canadian citizens since Trump got elected. He thinks its why they requested more proof of our relationship.

They did slow up. But today we have already heard of a DM and a landing.
It's a outland user who emails me directly.

I was about to send a list to you ... can't troll indeed at l'office -- right? ;)

We call them Trumpugee's.

Days after Trump's "election", reddit exploded with offers to "marry" on both sides. So, yup -- not surprised AT ALL.

Yeah, that's no good. If it's Kitchener you are after, those cats are *usually* pretty quick -- except when you have to give them a lil nudge -- eh Guyana?
Correct is right... a girl in my office has her inland interview for this Thursday... i'm wondering if they switched up the dates for landings to Thursdays now. They applied Jan 2016

That's so frustrating! Feeling grateful I established a relationship with my husband back in 2012 for pete's sake. Oy vey.

I got shit on once for opening a secure shell connection to my server at home to show one of my co-workers something. Keep in mind, I take my laptop home, and it ends up on the same network as the box I shelled to -- but within minutes of the connection, the IT Operations director demanded I explain the connection...

So, I look at that stuff, at home :).

I feel bad for you. I do know how you feel. For years now, the young females from former Soviet states bonding with men in Canada have been suspect to CIC as well. They have a disparate number of females to males in the former Soviet states. They are always very suspect.

So much so, that my wife was terrified to even ask for a Visitor visa... She read the forums, you see... They claimed < 1% chance of having a Visitor visa approved at that time (2013).

She definitely got a grilling at the border, but despite those interactions, there was no problems otherwise. It's only temporary. You just got caught up in the Trumpudrama. Indeed, you will land soon enough :)

I guess you might not know -- but 'muricans crashed CIC's web servers the night of the election and the day following. There were many checking into how to immigrate. Something like a 17,000% increase in load from any other time in history. > 100,000 page requests a minute. It took services down for nearly 24hrs.

Honestly, I think 4 Temps passed through here in the chair next to me and basically spent their days on indeed....It's either they 1. don't care.. 2. expect it....3. The IT guys here are on there themselves lol

with my luck...there will be a memo out by end of today about usage...

I am sure, in our case, they don't monitor our web usage -- I have a huge youtube sink happening -- music ALL DAY.

If I was still at WLU, I woulda been on indeed all day too.
