Applied: Aug 2001
Application received by Canadian Consul: Nov 2001
Medical and FBI notice received: Sept 2002 (No interview)
Medical and FBI request sent: Oct 2002
I did not hear from them till Apr 30th 2003. Sent a fax on the same date enquiring about my status. (thanx to Buffalo tracker. I was tracking the dates and when everybody who applied along with me got their visa staming letters, I knew that some thing is wrong with my application.)
Reply from canadian consul: May 2003 (Additional document required: Work history from Aug 2002 till date). It was my mistake. I forgot to provide the work history to the canadian consul in Oct 2002, when the canadian consul requested for it along with the FBI and medical in their Sept 2002 letter. This was a costly mistake.
My status changed from "in process" to "decision made" : June 26 2003
But no letters from canadian consul till July 14th 2003.
