Re: TWP anyone had any good news?
Hey there, my GF has pointed me in the direction of this. I submitted May15th, got word asking for more documents after 4 weeks which I duly submitted within 48hrs, now it's week 9.....i've had the "its with the visa review officer" line spun to me twice by email in week 6 and week 8. I phoned last friday in a feeble attempt to get past the front desk...it didn't go well. So i'm still waiting.
They even tried to tell me the 3 week delay was due to the extra documents they required. Well I said
1. the associations in canada confirmed to me that I never required such documents, they were irrelevant. So some duckegg doesn't know what they are doing. Either way the association laughed it off and just provided what they asked for to shut the CIC up.
2. I asked the girl on the phone how the CIC can turn 48hrs into a 3 week delay. I reckon that's pretty clever! :curse: Needless to say she didn't have an answer.
Oh, and when I said if your that busy perhaps you can employ some more people...I for one am unemployed at present cos' of the delay and offered to come down and process some for them....she hung up on me.
Anyways, glad to hear some people are getting them through now. Next time i'll try a border landing!!!!!!

Re: TWP anyone had any good news?
Unfair, it's true that a 6 month wait is totally unacceptable. But for straightforward applications that could be done in an hour at port of entry they have no excuse either. Something is fundamentally wrong with the CIC, be nice if one of their employees would come on here to describe in a bit more detail what takes so long. Most of the frustration/anger is born out a lack of information and status communications which is something they could easily address.

Re: TWP anyone had any good news?
totally agree............
infact I'll gladly go there and discuss the situation face to face......
don't think it would help my case though.
and just thinking at the weekend that nothing else could go wrong and BINGO.
the bankers draft I was suppossed to get last Friday and it didn't arrive has still not come!!!!!!
My bank said 'no problems, got to say 4-5 days but they have been coming in 1 or 2 just lately, see you Friday'
Went Friday, ' sorry hasn't come, must be Monday'........
Went today, 'sorry not here?'
'So where?'
'it got posted direct to you 1st class Friday, so you should of got it Saturday or today at latest'........
'Well I haven't got it!'
'if you don't get it in tommorrows post come in and we'll see what we can do'..........
all this to give CIC the money i gave them in the first place.........
As most of you know my story...........8 weeks and still cannot get it processed..........

Re: TWP anyone had any good news?
Well its good to see the TWP are still arriving, even though mine isnt here I still feel a little relief knowing they really do exist and aren't just a figment of my imagination!!!
Hope its here soon, this waiting lark is starting to give me a rash!!!!!!!!
(8 Weeks!!!)

Hi City4

And for no apparent reason I checked a bit earlier just to see if you did?
Good luck for tommorrow though.........
