Hi, Kamjeet..
no, they didn't double book.. they didn't book it on their end at all.  The gentleman that came down to talk to the DRO told me that I couldn't wait for someone to come in because they hadn't even Looked at my file yet!  Meanwhile I received a call from the IAD office to tell me of my appointment and I received a call from the ministers department to tell me about the date.  The just didn't schedual the Ministers Counsel.. it's soooo frustrating!  If we are late, too bad.. but it they are late it's ok.. no big deal.  They were late with my infor from the VO - 120 days turned into 139 days!  And now this.  Grr.  sooooo frustrating.

	Marina, did they send you a letter advising you of your ADR date or they just called? It's too bad that it happened. Who knows how much longer it will be. I feel bad for you. it also makes sad that now you have to wait longer. But then there nothing you can do. Let's just hope that they reschedule you soon. I think you already know this but if you don't hear anything by the second week of January, give them a call.

	I don't recall receiving a letter stating the date, but the DRO said they had sent one out and that she will get to the bottom of this mistake. I hope she really means that. I overheard the ladies talking behind the glass partition and they said this was the second time this happened and they weren't too happy about it. I plan to call them on Monday to find out what is going on. There must be someone that I can complain to about this... grr. as you can tell, I'm still ticked about this lol

	kamjeet may be you are right we should have taken full hearing at advance anyways but if you see we didn't loose ADR? he could just call my wife and ask some questions and then refuse why they just cancel it it doesn't seem right to me atleast they should let it happen why its so strange?

	Smart_Saqib I can understand the pain you are going thru. I've been there. I know how frustrating this whole process is. There was a time when i wasn't sure if i was ever going to be able to bring my husband to Canand. I had met few people with similiar cases as mine and they even lost in Ferderal court, so i was freaking out everyday. I am so glad it's over. But do't worry your day will come and you will be with your family.

	marinaCee If they make you wait for months and months again maybe you should bring this to you MP's attention. He/she might be able to speak to the IAD for you. These issues need to be brought to someone's attention so the system can be made better. Not sure if they will be of any help as some of the MP's don't seem to give a hoot about people like us, but it's worth a shot. Edited by kamjeet - 21 Dec 2009 at 10:17am

	Smart_saqib are you asking what the reasons were for the refusal? I am older than my husband i have a child from previous marriage i am more educated than my husband we didn't spend too much time in person before marrying we didn't go on honeymoon long enough Immigration was more susupicious about my husband's intentions for marrying me and they thoght i was genuine. My husband gave a really good interview. all the reasons were not for the lack of knowledge about each other, mainly the differences as mentioned as above. Edited by kamjeet - 23 Dec 2009 at 5:00pm

	Oh kamjeet thanks for your words and by the way Merry Christmas to everyone, and very Happy new year. Kamjeet much of the things are similar in my case as well but as i chat too much with my wife day and night and she shares everything and i share everything to her and we have long relationship thats why whatever interviewer asked i replied well overall my interview was good but its so disappointing i was still refused even i gave them very much credible evidences, and much better evidences to in ADR if that evidences go through their eyes and they know our sufferings why did they make us more wait its going to be three months since they sent our Case in Court i did not hear anything, i do not know what is going on and why this court process so slow, we say here in Pakistan that our judicial system is so slow where people die before finding the justice i see same in Canada my wife had to wait two and half years to get divorce now this visa process. Oh my Allah my wait is just like a prisoner who had done a sin(Marriage to an american ) and i am being punished for that, i am still missing the Happiness of the free birds who wish to fly high after long time of being in cage but my wait never gets end either their clear No not coming to put lock on our fates to reach each other we would find an alternative way to be together.
