Oh, you are Ken Scott's friend. Please ignore everyone.

Actually, I should tell everyone what Ken Scott did. He found pictures of me in a wheelchair from 2012. I was paralyzed and in the hospital for 3 months. There is a nice pic of me and my 3 children, who were rightly worried I might never walk again. (Contrast this with being the Canadian No-Gi BJJ champion in 2010)

Ken Scott posted the picture to mock me. So think about what kind of person would do that, take the time to mock a person and his family when he cannot walk.

Thank you for making sure Ken Scott NEVER gets a client on here again. Very smart.

I can't believe how easy it was to make you and Ken look........like terrible people. I have had 3 calls and 2 emails from people giving me suggestions on how to teach you a lesson, but destroying Ken's business (he is very shady) is kind of ........dumb of you. You literally put his name all over the internet....as a scammer.

Most of the people here are people with family. You literally said the exact wrong things if your trying to cause trouble.

Thank you! Anything else? You are doing a great job of making sure KEN SCOTT never gets another client. Smart!

It’s so sad Ken and his friends have to post these defamatory posts ….

I want to share my personal experience with this forum and my interaction with Ken Scott.

About a year ago, I was looking for help applying for this waiver and came across this forum. I read through it carefully. Other people were also giving advice, including someone named Michelle. At that time, Ken Scott was active in the forum, though he did not come across as rude the way he does now.

I called Michelle and explained my case. I also spoke with Ken about my situation. What stood out to me was how hostile he was. He repeatedly called me back after our initial conversation. During our call, he did not come across as an expert. Instead, he gave the impression that he had inside connections and could secure a September letter for me.

What felt off was how quickly he communicated and how strongly he pushed me to commit. That raised a red flag.

I chose to stay away. He continued calling, so I eventually blocked his number. My instinct at the time was clear. Something was not right, and now it seems I was correct.

I just want to point out that Michelle, who has an office in Regina, is EXTREEMLY ethical and VERY good at her job. She is also Accredited to fingerprint.

I want to post this because Ken Scott is NOT accredited to fingerprint, and is NOT ethical, but Michelle absolutely is. I would highly recommend her. Unlike MANY places that do these services, Michelle is diligent and VERY detailed. She predicted that Privacy Act would be an issue and started doing those prints even before they were asked for. She makes it a point to not accept money unless she really feels she can be successful, and those types of businesses are the ones we need to see thrive.

Have a great weekend everyone.

On Monday, Ill post some fresh results etc. As of right now, re-applications are still at about 90-97 days after the border.

First time applications are MUCH longer, over 10 months.

When I post some new results, we will see if anything indicates a change.

Remember that they got a September Letter, so its hard to say whether that is a "typical time"

This person got a 1 year waiver - first time applicant

1 year waiver

345 days also just over 11 months.

TIMELINE UPDATE

Clients first waiver. (he applied for Asylum in 1999, but misrepresented the fact he was already landed in Canada - common waiver for me. Claims he left the US for good in 2006)

This client was asked for "more information" In his case he said he left the US in 2006, so they want proof, which is pretty easy to provide.

But that also means they are looking at May 2025 Waivers, as you can see he went to the border on May 8 2025 - 345 days.
