Deficient

Oh boy, that surely won't last! I'm only three weeks in and I'm already over it. I just want progress!!!

I'm reluctant to start wishing away the time though as I kind of need it all to get my stuff in order...

Yes......They kept it very quiet!!!!!! Having Thomas Cook as a partner brand was very good for Canadian Affair as it was the airline most people requested when contacting them!!

Well I think it will last for a little while, it is just very exciting for us to officially start the waiting game. We had been waiting for what seems to be a long while... See we're both on a second marriage, but to get there, he had to finalize his divorce as he was separated when we met. His ex wanted to do the divorce on her terms, so we had a good long waiting game until we could get married. Had to change our date twice too! I had been working on the "final" application for 6 months when we finally tied the know at the end of February...

So you see, it IS exciting to enter the waiting game

I know what you are saying with wishing the time away... My husband and I met through work, while we both lived on different continents. Trying to figure things out and how much we really loved each other, enough to uproot one of us, while thousands of miles apart was not easy. We are lucky that we could afford trips to either side of the ocean every 6 weeks or so, and believe me, I wished the time away during the 6 weeks

Here is what ECAS said.

"We received your application for permanent residence on November 9, 2011.
We started processing your application on March 16, 2012.

[ Note there was no change on ECAS on Friday or over the weeekend ]
:
Medical results have been received.

[ Note: It said that when it first got to London in Janaury ]

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

Now i just have to stop the dog eating the letter when it arrives! and I will have COPR

So it was two months and a weekend in London until Decision made!

Right, good point, use this waiting time to get your things in order. I kept saying that to my husband, and although he has his COPR, he is not coming till May because he still has things to get organized! The waiting I am sure is easier if you keep yourself busy!
