How about processing time for spousal sponsorship?After medical how long we need to wait for PPR?
This actually depends from case to case. Some receive their spousal visa within 6-8 months. Judging from earlier situations, as far as Colombo VO is concerned it takes around one and half months to five months to receive PPR after medical submission

Hi. I am Avishka from Ontario. I submitted my application online through the PR Portal for my husband who is in Sri Lanka on the 25th of August 2022. I am very curious to know roughly how long it would take for the application to be sent to the Colombo Office and to get approved. Please advise.
Hi Avishka,

For me it took 3 1/2 months to get it transferred to Colombo VO and now I am waiting for my PPR

After medical they have asked some additional documents of IMM 5406 and IMM008 so we sent it on August 1.So will I get PPR before this year?

Most likely if the process continues smoothly. Can you please keep me posted if you hear back from the VO?

Hi@Vipush,

Thanks a lot. My wife did 2nd medical last May 2022, her first medical expired. I became PR (CoPR) in February 2021. Do you know how many days would it take to get back their passports from Colombo VO?

The second medical was done a month before they send the PPR, it will depend on the case. Not everyone would need a second medical. As I believe
