It is annoying, but at the same time I just have to think about how lucky we are to see each other as much as we do. I am heading up there the last weekend in July. I work at a coffee shop here in Seattle and my boss is so cool with me taking off 4 days once a month to stay with Cory. I used to have a job here where it was almost impossible to take days off. One of the many reasons why I quit. When I interviewed for my current job I said I won't take the job if its going to cause problems if I want to take off for a while. :)

	Wow its great to have such an understanding boss, they must be a family person We are both lucky..I had to go home to England for 6 months a few years ago and it was so hard to be 4,000 miles apart..but some couples seem to get through years apart and I really dont know how they do it!

	Even I am lucky in that stream. My boss gave me 5 weeks off in december and another 5 weeks in May. Whenever he sees me sad, he goes "take couple of weeks off". God bless these guys who understand the pain. I am happy to be a part of this discussion forum.

	Hello everybody, want to join your thread. Here is my data. Married 30/4/10 Medicals 14/6/10 App received by CPC-M 28/06/10 Outland: Kiev, Ukraine waiting... I had read your posts about many worries: thinking and re-writing each question in the forms, huge folders of supporting documens, etc. I can say that I went exactly the same way during my application prepration (I am a sponsor). Even during next few days after I mailed it to CRC-M, I was still thinking about "Did I do (write) everything right or not?" We are only two months apart, but it is annoying. Question: (if)after my sponsorship application is approved and file mailed to Ukraine, is it good or bad idea for my wife to apply for a guest visa (Ukrainian citizen required to have visa)? The reason I am asking this is according to statistics Kiev office is the slowest in Europe, so we can't expect to get immigration visa in two-three months

	She can try But typically visitor visas aren't approved for people with PR apps in process. They just don't think the person will leave if they have shown intent to stay in the country permanently

	So random question here. When my passport gets requested and I have to send it off, can I still enter Canada with my passport card from the states? I know that it takes some time to get your passport back, and I still want to be able to visit my husband while they have it.

	Hi there, i just sent in my application today so i guess that makes me a july applicant. It should be arriving in about 4 days and then its just waiting to see. how do they let you know if you are approved to be a sponsor? Via email?
