I believe her agency is the same as mine and their email of yesterday said that their facilitator met with the CCAA in May and the CCAA apparently said that: - The CCAA will remain open during Olympic Games - The CCAA will continue to revise dossiers - That for referrals received in June and July (Hooray!) that parents should be understanding about the Olympic Games and that they should wait until September to travel because it will be easier and cheaper - To help parents achieve this, travel approvals will be valid for 5 months instead of 3 for referrals received in June and July. Good news in the sense that receipt of referrals will not be interrupted! JO means Jeux Olympiques (Olympic Games).

I assumed JO meant the Olympics. I think 'games' is Jeux in French. I was confused about "and nothing else" -- maybe there would be referrals but no TAs/travel?

I was confused about “and nothing else” — maybe there would be referrals but no TAs/travel?
