**SYDNEY, NOVA SCOTIA CPC* - Outland Spousal Applications

[singleman]

yeHH things are moving in SYDNEY CPC good news 4 all of us

Yey! So it is moving then. We just have to find out how fast they can process our applications.

The sad thing is that Canada Post's drivers that were under contract in Nova Scotia are on strike right now. This will probably affect August applicants. I will suggest that August applicants use a courier instead for the meantime.

Now I'm really kicking myself about not sending it via courier. I mailed ours yesterday via USPS and this strike has me very concerned. Do you have any sense of it is expected to be prolonged? Do you think it would be a good idea to resend via courier and try to contact CIC to cancel the one sent via post?

Hello Everybody!!!

I sent our application last June 27, and they received it last July 4.

Waiting for AOR

I, unfortunately, do not know how long this is going to take. The union said that it can go on for the foreseeable future. They've been trying to get in touch with their employer since 2016 but with no resolution still.

Hey! Just wondering where you’re getting your info? Want to make sure I’ve got what’s most current. Article I found online said that they are resuming working as of this morning and on the Canada Post Service Alerts site there’s no mention of delays due to strike.

Yes, you got the latest update as of this morning. They're resuming work this Friday morning because employees were on strike since Wednesday - 2 days ago. Canada Post, probably, didn't mention anything because it's not their employees directly, but it's the employees of a company that they contracted to do delivery on their behalf. They previously mentioned in a news article that they will not give any comments.

You can read the news from Wednesday for my sources.

Yes. Everything has been transferred to Sydney CPC already, including those originally sent to Mississauga.

So far, all applications received at Mississauga on june 11 onwards were transferred to Sydney. Keep in mind that not everybody receives AOR, for instance, a June 21 applicant received SA email yesterday but they never received AOR, so hang in there, you should hear good news soon.
