average time span is between 3-6 months in your kind of scenario, but a little mistake can prolong that. still, your husband should push the immigration folks here despite them telling him that the file has been transferred to india and they can't do anything. just a common excuse. remember one thing and that is, toronto (or anywhere in canada) is the point of origin of ur file and these guys have all the control on ur file.

I agree with James.
Please do not leave your job (whether in India, Middle east or anywhere).

I once made a mistake, but I was wrong about it.

Nothing wrong with that at all. Like any other turning points in life, you choose and decide depending on how YOU view the current environment and the effect that your choice or decision will have on your future. There is no right or wrong in matters like these. There are no universally applicable rules. Each individual is different and has his own unique set of metrics that he uses to make decidions for his life. Trust yourself and do what your intellect tells you. And most important - do not regret decisions.

Let me put it this way - everything we experience is actually on a relative scale. Consider a person who struggles with minimum wage labour jobs for an inordinately long period of time, someone whose bank balance has been wiped out looking for a proper opening, in general someone for whom getting a job is God's blessing. For a person such as this, a proper and reasonably well paying job will make him very very happy. Compare that to someone who manages a decent job in a unusually short time. This latter person has not undergone any of the stress or experienced the problems and issues like the former one. For him, getting a job did not bring as much relief, and by consequence, as much happiness. As an example, even though I got a job, I was not happy because I missed the other things about my job and life that I had experienced back home. My career for example had set itself back by almost 15 years. The Canadian who was my equivalent in terms of the year of graduation and quivalent to me in qualification holds the designation of "General Manager" in my company(not a small company with over C$3.5 billion in sales and an employee strength of 7000), something near what I was back home before I came here. That hurt and makes me unhappy. I miss the loss of executive authority, the respect and the heady power of governance that I had earned rising through ranks of management over the 15 years of work I had put in. That makes me unhappy. I miss my family and friends, relationships with whom had been built over a long time of sharing and caring. That makes me unhappy. And well, the list can go on. This is perhaps what they call "grumbling".
In essence what I am trying to say is that nothing is right or wrong. You come here, get a job, live here - you win some, you lose some! You go back to your old job, live back home- you win some, you lose some!

Just a note to say..you have my respect for your honest self-appraisal. Not that it should matter to you
