I was able to log into e-cas today and it shows decision made on my sponsorship..they have sent a letter on August 8. The only address they list is mine, as the sponsor. Does this mean they are mailing it to me?

I feel your pain..lol...this has been a very expensive process for sure. Between flights every couple months, lost wages due to travel, extra expenses and fees, childcare and other costs...omg! I work fulltime, overtime, and do anything and everything I can do to bring in extra $ (almost..lol). He works almost constantly as well just to make this work...I will be sooo glad when we can both work to maintain ONE household :)
