Hello all,
Been following pretty well every thread on the boards the past 6 months or so and though I would finally join up and make an account for me and my wife. I am a Canadian citizen, 29 and she is a Dominican citizen 23.
We married last February and have now applied for a spousal sponsorship. Have a few questions maybe some can help us out with. Here are our timelines so far:
- Married February 16,2008
- Sent our completed application in to Mississauga May 12th, 2008
- Approved as a sponsor and sent to the overseas office for processing June 17th, 2008
Now have not heard a lick back since, not even a confirmation of receipt in Haiti. Today is now September 15th, 2008. In anyone's experiences, is almost three months with no confirmation reason to be concerned ? I'm thinking it would just be nice to know they got it there ok.
We decided to hire an immigration lawyer and have him looking into it, but figured it would be more helpful to hear your opinions due to the fact that some on the boards have actual first hand experience. Needless to say my MP was completely useless and told me that since I hired legal representation, they should handle everything for me.....
