I just spoke to my lawyer this morning. She had attended a liason meeting with CSC yesterday. Here's what came out of that meeting:
They are still not processing any cases. (Not that we didn't know about it, we just wanted to hear it "officially"). They have been busy putting up their whole new system (ppl, departments, security checks) in place and now have a huge backlog on the additional security checks that they are imposing. What exactly these security checks comprise of, I do not know, but I do know that they take about 2 weeks to complete for a person.
They are currently in the process of completing these backlogged security checks. They expect to resume adjusting cases by the first week of February.
I guess only time will tell how long its really going to be. It ain't over till its over.
