Hubby submitted his PPR to Islamabad today. They say it takes average 7-10 days to get it back.

I wonder how reliable their statement is, especially with it being a busy season.
Congrats - it's currently taking 4 days to get the passport back (reported by my friend).

Hey all,

Please confirm if a girl can apply mehndi on her hands while traveling to Canada? Or are there restrictions imposed by immigration officers at the airport?
Of course she can!! This is a multicultural and a very welcoming country to all nationalities. They might even compliment the design :)

Congrats, spreadsheet updated!
Hey, you were right. Lawyers actually suggest doing nothing at all and would just tell you to be "patient and hang in there!".
The letter I wrote to inform LVO of our struggles and the Rukhsati events - my lawyer suggests it won't do any good and won't shed any light
on anything new and he's freaking vacationing in Australia. So instead of "haath pey hath rakh ke bethna" - I chose not to listen to him and just sent the letter via email.

Let's hope!

A lot of people who have applied after me have already been requested passports or at least decision has been made - I can't hold myself back.

Well, my issue is the same as yours actually - I want to be with my other half asap.
Nikah only case - applied in Jan 2017
Processing started early Feb 2017
CSQ completed in April 2017

No updates since then. Our medical expired today and I requested some advice here about what to do so I did what was told - wrote a letter detailing our living situation along with Rukhsati and Walima ceremonies which were held after the app. submission.

As per the cic website, 80% of the cases applied before dec 2016 will be processed by 31 dec 2017. I am assuming that the rest of the 20% includes applications that are delayed due to being in interview queue, or lengthy background checks.

Hello
In interview letter they provided old link of forms so we fill up updated version of all forms.
imm5562 you cannot save it, need to fill up and print.
Is there any other form except Schedule A is updated? I find all the other forms similar to what I filled last year in December. Correct me if I am wrong.
