July 5 2009 - sponsorship approved by Mississauga office;
July 15 2009 - submitted immigration application to Buffalo office
July 29 2009 - confirmation letter from Buffalo office with medical examination form asking to book an appointment in 3 months (Oct 29)
Aug 11 2009 - Buffalo office notified me that my mom's application has been transferred to Detroit office
Aug 29 2009- Detroit visa asked my mom to have medical examination ASAP & pay the landing fee
Sept 8 2009 - medical examination
Oct 23 2009 - got a letter from Detroit visa office asking for passport for visa issuance
I will hand in the passport in person this week and I was told I can get the visa in the same day.
We are lucky. It is much faster than I thought. Hope the above info would be help for some people who submitted to Detroit office.
Good luck to everyone!
