Hello
I was just wondering if there are any other "inland" people who are getting sponsored by their common-law partners? And in general how does everyone feel about this process, what is your situation like (are you visitors, working etc)? I see a lot of excitment in people's comments as they're getting closer to the big day (of hearing from CIC) but I'm just freaking out more the closer it gets. Not good. I would really like to hear how other people are taking this. I would appreciate any input.
=) Thank you

I'm being sponsored by my husband.  We were married Sept 2009, I sent in my extension for visitor status with my PR app on Dec 14 and started processing on Mar 1.  I'm one of the ones who was so excited just to see my name in e-CAS, tho that was mostly due to the fact that I was an idiot and threw out the tracking number for my app.  So when I saw it in e-CAS I just breathed a huge sigh of relief that it actually was at CIC and processing.
I would say just relax and try to keep living life as usual best you can.  Its very easy to freak out and get nervous, especially when you come on the boards here and hear so many horror stories.    But anyway, yea from time to time the forums, while being very helpful and supportive, sometimes can get me more nervous and doubtful and upset, especially about things that (since my app is already in) are out of my hands, at least for now.  I've since taken a view that whatever I've sent in will have to do for now.  If CIC needs more, we'll cross that bridge down the road, but for now, gotta use the free time to try something new, something I've been waiting for the time to get around to, you know, stuff like that. It's important to just to take deep breaths and start a new hobby!  It gets my mind off things, and before you know it you'll just look in your mailbox one day, and your approval letter will be there from CIC!  Just gotta keep thinking positive, if you don't do that, you can and certainly will be driven insane.
