Just received COPR. I assume I'm one of the last but good luck to any others still waiting after all this time.
Thank you very much, it's been a long and at times stressful process. I'm very glad it's coming to an end.
Thank you very much. You received prearrival in September and are still waiting? That seems quite atypical, I hope they push yours through soon.
Congrats! Now the adventure begins, after Mexico VO finally comes through.
Yes, they do seem to have handled things relatively quickly. Sydney was the real culprit in my case it seems. Thanks for the well wishes.
Congratulations! How long did you wait for CORP after file was sent to Mexico VO?
It was sent to Mexico at the beginning of October. Check out my signature for details.
My wife’s file is with the London Visa Office also. We applied in June 2020. It really feels depressing sometimes especially since we decided that she should stay abroad (I am a Canadian citizen who moved back to Canada in September 2020 after 17 years overseas) where she is able to practice her profession while we wait. We have been married 15 years. At the time, we thought it might take 6-8 months.
Throughout this period we have been living with the uncertainty of “any moment now” and “it could still take a long time.” With all that is happening in the world, it has taken a mental toll on us- fortunately I moved back to Canada in my late 40’s- I shudder to think what it might have been like being separated from my wife in my 60’s.
The only encouraging news I can offer is that London does respond within a few days if you have an active file with them. Try emailing them at LDNIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca. At the very least someone will know you a still out there.
I got to sympathize too with the officers. It appears that the government expects them to perform magic by setting lofty immigration goals without providing them the necessary resources. To paraphrase Joseph Stalin- a single backlogged immigration file is a tragedy. 1.8 million backlogged immigration files is a statistic.
hey everyone. Got pre arrival services Friday April 1 2022. Anyone else here still waiting. Application was Sept 2020
Had a huge hiccup starting Feb 2022. IRCC Kingston office had emailed me asking for 4 additional docs one being an Amended Marriage Certificate. I was able to upload the other 3 but the Certificate was all problems at the registrars office. The gave me the run around every week until my husband decided on a whim to attend at the head registrars office in Kingston spoke to the supervisor and sat all day waiting on the document. I had asked for n granted an extension on this matter. however when tome to upload in gckey the link was mo longer there to upload this last document so I emailed it to Kingston n upload it to webform. anyone else experienced this.
