Hi,

I applied for my wife's Family Class in Canada Spousal PR 1.5 months ago. My wife is a US-born citizen. We are still waiting for the AOR. She is pregnant and we intend to apply for BC MSP health service as BC Health allows her to apply for one year Temporary Health Card with AOR while waiting for final decision on the PR. Can we request IRCC to process AOR earlier by highlighting the pregnancy and health card stuff as mentioned above in the webform? Is it going to affect her PR in a negative way? Please suggest.

I don't see any harm in sending a webform. However I don't think IRCC will process AOR faster.
 
I have called health link BC and talked to a level 3 agent on this number: 6046837151. They have explicitly mentioned sending this form to the address mentioned on the footer of this form: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/health/forms/203fil.pdf along with payment receipt and AOR (yes they asked for AOR). However, since I am still waiting for the AOR of my wife I will apply to BC MSP without AOR and see if they allow my wife to get BC MSP. I will keep you guys posted.

No need for AOR, you only need to submit the Right of Permanent Residence fee (RPFR) Receipt. 3 Months waiting period starts from the date of the reciept.
Also, you do not need to send the documents to the address in Victoria, BC. you only need to update your wife details on your MSP Account online and upload the following:
- Right of Permanent Residence fee (RPFR) Receipt
- Visitor Record, Work Permit or Study Permit, proof of pending extention if available (They need to ensure that your wife has legal status or have maintained status)
- Wife's passport

Once you do that, call 604-683-7151 have them review your uploaded documents and once confirmed completed (ask if the add spouse option was properly received - if not do it again and it will give you a new reference number); ask to be transferred to a Level 3 Agent (Enrollment Agent) and request for enrollment (infom the Level Agent that the documents have been reviewed).


*IMPORTANT: Make sure to click the Add Spouse and do it on a laptap / computer and not on Mobile / Ipad as it fucks up the submission.


PS: This is what I did. and Approved for MSP in 1 day.
