Hi Dmmarkazi,
Congrats! your file was processed pretty fast. We applied in March 2022 and just got our passport request and COPR number. Our file is processed in Ankara as well and I was wondering if you have any information on processing time for issuing the visa at Ankara office?
Thanks

Hello everyone….I applied for inland spousal sponsorship on May 25.I used a lawyer as my representative.My wife who is the sponsor received AOR in her email on July 15.I have been trying to access the tracker but is not working out since then.Is it because I used a representative?
I haven’t receive any update from my representative till date.

Incorrect or invalid information. Review and make sure it matches the information submitted on the Use of a Representative [IMM 5476] form or the Authority to Release Personal Information to a Designated Individual [IMM 5475] form. If you can’t create an account, it may be because your client’s application is not in our system yet.

Ok, you have to contact your representative. I believe he/she has to sign up on PR tracker.

My husband's background check started in April as well and it still hasn't been completed along with his eligibility. We applied in November 2022. I think a lot of people are still waiting. What is your visa office?
Etobicoke. They took Forever to process the Back Ground Check for some reason!
