This has to be the most frustrating wait ever for me and my mother! Our 2014 application reached CIC on Jan 3rd, 2014 and no update until now.
So many people from 2015 and 2016 have already landed and yet we haven't even got SA. Our case has to be one of the more straight forward ones....single parent...canadian citizen sponsor with more than double the required financial cutoff.
We have gone to our MP 5 times in the last 8 months and they have nothing to update or offer us and have told us not to come back till september. I will now order GCMS notes but don't hope to see anything different.
Sorry for the rant fellow applicants
I am in the same boat. My mom's file is in the Ottawa since January but no update yet. Do they take more time for single parents? MP is doing nothing ....I asked them so many times and this time....should any letter will work for this case?
