medinaj06 15 Posted July 12, 2013 Most people who applied in 2013 are being approved within 3 months from what I have seen... I applied in April, did biometrics on may 13th and got approved July 11th.... have patience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No ofense but it's easy for you to say have patience when some of us applied wayyyyyy long before you and we're still in intial review. Although I'm super happy for the ones who have recieved good news, it's a stressful time for some of us. It's like we waited for so long to come to this oppurtinity and it's almost like they're torturing us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

medinaj06 15 Posted July 13, 2013 Thanks Rica1993, no offense taken I know its hard to wait but what else can you do and I know seeing ppl who applied after u getting approved would make me mad too but all I can say is let god handle your situation! Didnt mean to offend anyone by noting that most ppl this year are getting approved 2 months after thier biometrics, good luck to everyone still waiting!! 2 Erick and Dreamer3oh3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dreamer3oh3 40 Posted July 15, 2013 He is just trying to be nice & give you hope by saying have Patience I'm sure you didn't have to be that rude when some One is only trying to give you kind advice. I wasn't trying to be rude actually or start any drama. I'm saying for us who have been waiting close to a year is heart breaking. If you read my entire post you would understand that we're all very stressed. And like many who are still in initial review since 2012 it sucks TONS bcuz we don't understand why the process doesn't move you know? It's like they should just give us an aswer instead of toying with us, while others who applied later in 2013 are getting approved within like 3 months. Thanks Rica1993, no offense taken I know its hard to wait but what else can you do and I know seeing ppl who applied after u getting approved would make me mad too but all I can say is let god handle your situation! Didnt mean to offend anyone by noting that most ppl this year are getting approved 2 months after thier biometrics, good luck to everyone still waiting!! Medina I wasn't trying to start nothing, so I sencerly hope you try to see where I was coming from. You also didn't offend me and I was just saying like you also said that this long of a wait just seems ridiculous since people who applied in 2013 are getting approved right away. But I do appreciate the support that you and the rest of the forum have shared with all here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin 11 Posted July 16, 2013 My brother applied in may and went foe boimetrics in mid june....he just got approved a week ago, im not mad, AND i sent application in october!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gezinha 121 Posted July 16, 2013 It took me 7 months, I know of some people who applied in August and are still waiting. I guess it is just luck. But keep calling when your waiting time is over because sometimes they will approve you and just leave you sitting there. That is what happened to 2 people I know, they had been approved 2 months before, and they called to ask what happened and it was just sitting there. The need foreigners working there, they woudl be much faster...put a fast food burguer flipper up in that shit, we would be getting approvals up to our necks! hahaha Just saying, we are way too efficient for our own good, and that is the whole truth folks! haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
