I'll do the same with mine!!!

Let's see what kind of info he can get. As far, he has helped me a lot..

One time he said to me that Haiti asked for documents on dec. 4th.
that was untrue as the agent who's taking care of my file respond.

I have a question. Why are you calling if your husband has a date for an interview?

You cannot expect the secretaries to know everything about Immigration especially when it seems to work differently for every country. Heck there are no two applications that are the same coming from the DR.

I have something to say before I delete this. Do not screw it up for others who come along. Don't play games. You have your appointment so hang in there. What update would you need at this point?

MP's are to be used in desperate situations when one doesn't hear anything from Haiti.

As I said, I knew he had the interview, but I had requested the update some time ago. I was kind of just checking in to see if they had received it, and what it said. I would understand if she said she couldn't tell me if I would be approved or not, just like the call centre, they can't say much and don't have access to everything, but I just resented the way I was treated, by someone who's salary I pay with my taxes, and it is their job to help me out. I was mostly disappointed since everyone else here seemed to get some help from their MP, and mine was condescending, misinformed, and never even did the work to get me the update. Sorry, not the MP, the secretaries.

How exactly did I screw it up for anyone else? I take this very seriously, and it is not a ''game'' to me. And why should it be deleted? I am asking for other people's experiences with their MPs.

I did not said that I would challenged or screw up my MP, but just to know what kind of information he have now.

The information about the 4th of december was so wrong, I just want to know if he have any updates now.

Yes, we were just looking for information. I was curious if anyone had good/bad experiences with their MPs. It would be good info for newbies to the forum. Missrnb, you and I didn't mess up anyone else's immigration case.

MP = Minister of Parliament? or what?

emj_08 · #27 04-27-2009, 03:57 PM

My MP for when My wife did her immigration back in 1999 was more than helpful. His assistant was incredible.(Reform party) When my mother-in-law was doing hers in 2004-5, my then MP(NDP) was also very helpful so I've no complaints. The first time I phoned Haiti I got a woman that could only speak French, Fortunately I had a friend visting that was French and got all the info I required.

I can't believe how uneducated my MPs people were about immigration, and how unhelpful and rude they were. I hope they aren't passing on this misinformation to anyone else.

After reading this....you are calling HER rude?? I'm pretty sure this is what Anna meant about screwing it up for others.

I didn't HANG UP on her. I said thanks for your time, she said good luck, and we ended it. But it wasn't a fun conversation. Have a little faith people, I didn't tell her to shove it. I was diplomatic. AND even if I WAS rude, nobody else would be affected by that.
