Hi! You should have your hardcopy within a matter of days. Tops should be a week. And touched really means nothing. All it means is that someone handled your paperwork. My last touch was (i'm guessing) when CSC received my papers. So a touch could mean they are working on it, or it could simply mean they are shuffling your papers around.

Hey guys, how are you doing?

Rujby, any news of the expedite?

Today's the day I didn't want to think about.... I'm just back from the airport, alone, as Colin is now gone back to the USA to start his new job.

The house is so empty and silent. I don't quite realize he's gone yet.

The good thing is I have our kitty purring on my knees to cheer me up.

Talk to you soon

Bonjour Rujby,

Hope you're doing OK. Your wife should receive the RFE within 10 days or so. There's no way to know what they want before, unfortunately.

I'm sure it's something simple, don't worry too much.

Take care!

A bientôt.
