		|  |  |  | have applied to sponsor my parents in July 2003 and the application was received by CPC in May 2004. Does anyone know where I could accurately check the current processing times for family sponsorship? I have been checking the status on
 
 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/times/process-in.html
 
 and the date has been June 24, 2003 forever.
 
 Are they ways to expedite this process?
 
 I was hoping to see my parents this Christmas.
 
 Thank you, in advance.

     | maybe.... (in reply to: Need Help Family Sponsorship) I think the only way to see the status is to either call the CIC or order a CAIPS file... Hope someone else can help better... good luck
 
 
 cheers

     | CAIPS file (in reply to: Need Help Family Sponsorship) Thank you for the reply.
 Do you know if requesting a CAIPS file would slow down or affect my immigration sponsorship application in any way?
 
 Thank you

     | (in reply to: Need Help Family Sponsorship) Hi ...my brother applied to sponsor our parents in July 2003 and we haven´t heard anything from CPC missisauga yet ...and there website is still stuck on June 24 2003. We´re not sure whats going on.
 
 We thought about CAIPS notes ...but we need a file number for that (I think) and we don´t have a file number yet.
 
 Any suggestions/comments are welcome.

     | family sponsorship (in reply to: Need Help Family Sponsorship) Hi
 Today March 27 2005 I found out that -of course- application processing time for "other relatives" moved from 20 to 21 months.  This has been happening systematically and I´m as fed up of this abuse as I think you are.  I´ve sent the papers for sponsoring my mother back in August 2003, and still waiting of course.
 I have thought today of calling someone in "media contacts" in the cic.gc website. Any ideas?  Has anyone tried this?  Has anyone tried writing to an editor of a newspaper.  IS THERE ANYTHING ANYONE CAN DO so that the Minister Mr. Volpe realizes of the big gap between spouses and other relatives processing times huge gap????
 Thanks a lot, and sorry for the caps... I´m so angry.
