Not going to be able to sleep now haha. Just need to wait for that magical you got mail slip in the post box now!

Went In Process on April 11th for the spreadsheet.

I guess they mean it when they say they usually update ECAS on Tuesdays!
Congratulations!!

Oh myyyy goodness! I just logged into ECAS and it says 'DECISION MADE'.

***falls off bed***

For spreadsheet purposes, it never went into 'In Process', and it must have been updated either yesterday or this morning as the last time I checked was Monday!

/happiness

Edit: Update! ECAS says 'We started processing application on April 10, 2014.' So, they started processing it but they didn't update it until the decision was made.

LMAO - My hubby's work visa expires today and he thinks he is in for a relaxing wait for the spousal visa.... I have quite the "honey-do" list for him!

Waiting and waiting....

At what point will we at least feel comfortable there will be no interview? Not until decision is made?

After a good 8 months or so of to-do lists from the gf I am scratching at the door awaiting for that COPR so I can finally start the job applications. It is no fun being a visitor!

You can probably safely assume you won't have an interview, but yeah, until Decision Made it's not official. In my nearly-3 years on the forum there's been one person called.

My hubby would be inclined to agree with you ... he's been a visitor (and stay-at-home-dad to our 2yo) for 5 mths and I can tell he's chomping at the bit to be able to get back to work!
