I got my visa in the mail today! From Buffalo (express mail both ways) it only took 5 days (so definitely do that Buffalo outlanders!) I'm so thankful to have this mess over, save the landing process (which should be LOADS of fun - moving in JANUARY!!!!) I'll be sure to post the experience here when I do. Wishing PPR's for everyone and some news this coming week!!

Congrats, that is the most amazing news.

I just came back from visiting my husband. Been crying all day. Very, very tired. I need that PPR soon. Haven't heard anything yet. :'(
*hug*

I know how you feel. They've had our additional documents for several weeks now and not a word. So depressing.

Cheer up all! Happy Sunday! Question? My husband received a letter requesting additional documents and they also returned all our personal information. What next? Can anyone fill me in? Thanks.

Good morning. I just don't know what is going on with the mail to Bermuda! First, my husband never received a Sponsorship Approval letter which they said was sent from Miss. on Sept. 14th to our home address in Bermuda and now I still haven't received the instruction letter from Buffalo which they said they sent to my work address in Bermuda on October 21st. It does not take 2 weeks for mail to get here from the US. I have sent them a couple of emails asking them if they could email me a copy of the letter but each response I have received says to "allow sufficient time for delivery". One would think the Bermuda Triangle is messing with my mail! That is 2 weeks off of whatever time they are giving me in the letter to follow their instructions (whatever they may be)!

Would it be better for me to send them a fax and hope that they fax me a copy of the letter? Or should I just email them my fax number?

I am answering my own questions above! I sent Buffalo another email and they finally sent me a copy of my letter a fe minutes ago! Not actually AOR but PPR! Now I have another problem! They only gave me 30 days to send in our passports and 16 days have already passed from the date they mailed the letter to me! I live in Bermuda and they won't send my passports back to me by Federal Express. We are flying out on December 15th for Christmas holidays. What do I do? I burst into tears when I receive dthe email and now have moved onto another stressful situation. I am so happy happy happy to finally have this almost done but .....

I guess we can finally update my status!
