I wish they were faster... I see some of the other May applicants can already see PR in process - they have different processing countries than we do. Hopefully once it changes to in process the actually processing will go much faster.

I called CIC today and while I didn't get to talk to a person it did say that Mississauga is currently taking 41 days to process things.

We are another inch closer :D.

Received a letter from buffalo today saying the interview is waived and no additional documents are required at this time. It says that they have confirmed the medical is completed, but are awaiting receipt of the results.

Does anyone have any idea how long it takes them to get the results from the central agency that holds them? Do we have long to wait?

Thanks!

giggles mail buffalo office asking to confirm whether they have received ur application.. state all the known facts like ur husbands name,DOB, citizenship country, sponsor's Client id number or any other such thing that will help the visa office to identify your application..

I had done the same thing.. i had mailed them 3 weeks after the sponsorship was approved.. n they had replied that they have started proceesing that same day n sent me AOR through snail-mail..

We got a letter in the mail today. They are requesting another FBI clearance. :(
I know I included it with our application, I have copies to prove it. Did they lose it? Do they want new ones because they expired? No explanation in letter, just that they want "original" letter or certificate. My husband emailed them asking for clarification but who knows when they'll reply.

They also want it within 90 days of June 29. :eek: It's another 12 weeks before we even get the letter again. WTF.

Time to pay for another set of prints, send them by courier and sit and wait for another 12 weeks. Wow.

Immigration is wearing me out.

They always want everything within 90 days. Send them and explanation and proof that you applied for it. This is a very common situation.
