Hey London peeps,

Decided not to check e-cas all weekend.
First thing at work this morning and I say, hey what the hell, and check. See what was on e-cas below:

We received your application for permanent residence on July 23, 2012.

We started processing your application on February 22, 2013.

Medical results have been received.

A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision.

I don't know if this is good or bad, but I'll just pretend it's PPR.
Congratulations! Great news for you! Nice to know London are actually working!

I've removed the "in process" date from my timeline. It was obviously just the lawyer saying it was in process because it was in London.
I reckon ours has been reviewed and because its a bit complicated its gone to someone else and ia awaiting review again. It was screened on Feb 1st according to an email from London. We've had no request for additional docs. It's just sitting on a desk......

Em not really. Its because when my husband landed as a PR we were engaged but we had lived together for over a year. It was advised that CIC may think that we were common-law and when my husband landed he signed the paperwork and his status was "single". It was possible that they may have decided he had misrepresented himself. But, we were never common law, we were engaged before we lived together a year and we were getting married. We hired a lawyer who fought our case and we had a hell of an application. If there was going to be an issue they wouldnt have approved my hubby as a sponsor so thats the good news and we shouldn't have to worry but I just think with all the paperwork and that, its going to take a little longer than most applications. I just didnt think it would take this long!

Ah ok, I hope it's not much longer for you. However, from the spreadsheet it looks like they are dealing with July applications so I wouldn't imagine you will be that much longer

I just want all this immigration nightmare to END! Ive got to leave the UK end of June. With or without my husband. My kids are both british and both hold Canadian Citizenship so they'll have no problem getting in and out of the country. Im so fed up! Why cant there be an office of common sense that someone runs!? Ugh! One of those days. Anyone got any good news? Anything? What do you guys think? Do you think my husband will have word by end of June?

I know it's hard! If there are no complications with your file I would think that you will hear by end of March as that would be around 6 months at London...

tommyboy got a decision so they are doing something at least

Thanks guys & girls! Fingers crossed for all of you who are waiting on the DM!

Sorry, forgot to say that: Sponsor approval 30th August 2012.

Ya definitely relieved, been a long process, I know I've had a relatively quick process, and even not paying the RPRF fee at the time of application hasn't seemed to delay it much, we just couldn't afford it at the time.

I posted a copy of the RPRF receipt by registered post, faxed copy to CPC-M and emailed copy to London VO the same day it was requested. My file went in-process 7 days later, so didn't take too long for London to be informed. Seems like e-cas is being updated on days other than Tuesdays now too!
