本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Dear Mr. xxx,
My name is Janet Bin and I live in the xxx area with my husband and two pre-school children. It has been my dream to have my parents in China to immigrate to Canada so that I can share my good life with my parents while I work hard and contribute to the Canadian society. However, the processing time for parents’ immigration application has become extremely slow during last few years, and I worry I can never realize my dream of family reunion.
I submitted my sponsorship application for my parents’ immigration to CIC, Mississauga back in August 2007. I go to the CIC website http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/canada/process-in.asp#sponsorship frequently to check the processing time and find it unacceptably slow.
I started to keep records of CIC’s processing time showed in the website in April 2009, and the following is what I have recorded:

May.26,2010 ------May 24,2007 -------- 36months
The estimated processing time was 26 months back in August 2007 when I submitted my application. It has been slowed down to 36 months in May 2010. On March 25th, 2010, CIC was processing applications received up to May 23rd, 2007. It was not until May 18th, 2010, IC changed the processing application received up to May 24th, 2007. It took CIC almost two months to process the applications received in one day. I am wondering how many applications CIC received on May 23rd, 2007 and how many officers were appointed to process the applications. I need a reasonable explanation from CIC.
Even after the sponsorship is approved, it is another wait in the designated visa office, which is about 2 years in Hong Kong and about 6 years in Beijing. It is not right to take such a long time for people who want to union with their parents. It is totally against family value we have in Canada.
Mr. xxx, please tell CIC my concerns and persuade CIC to speed up the processing of parents immigration application.
Sincerely yours,
Janet Bin更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
