Does anyone know if having the Applicant in the country helps speed up the PR process?

She's done the criminal and medical testing in order to be allowed into the country on her SuperVisa.

I'm still waiting...purolator 943 :( congrats to all who got charged! Can you believe we are actually celebrating a deduction on our credit cards? Hehe
Mrs Hassan...I wish you good luck too...its just matter of time...and you will be charged...then we will all celebrate...

I think we should all decide and meet up sometime somewhere together...and celebrate this once all of out apps selected :) :) :)

Its kind of an achievement...

Purolator 9:43
CC Charged (based on $1100 drop in credit. I hadn't been using this card for anything else.)
My projection sheet after all stands defeated. I am however happy to say that.
The 2 percentages of interest are:
1. The acceptance rate: 10,000 / 15,000 = 65%
2. The population representation by forum: to be calculated at the end when all cc are charged. I still thought it was 370/15000 = 2.5% but let's review later
Thanks to all forum members for keeping positive spirit
Good luck to all
Increasing application quota by twice is a big step
The process still needs tremendous improvement because
FCFS is not a good policy.
Everyone tries to be first, but then there is natural queue formation that changes everything

So no more protests outside Purolator's head office
or taking them to court
All is well that ends well
But Purolator did lie

Now the other Puralator 9:43 (my own parents) also got charged.

Purolator the Lier was lucky. Otherwise we were going to protest and make them bankrupt:)

I just hope that 10K quota will last until all 9:43 batch is processed (I am still waiting...... :-X)
We don't know how far they are with the second 5K batch, right?
