I applied as a sponser for my husband who lives in India (outland sponshership). It has been almost 6 months since we have submitted the application and we have not received biometrics mail yet. Can anyone help us, or is this also happening with you as well?
Applied: April 29 2023
Sponsership: Outland (India)
Activity status updated: In Progress - July 6 2023
Ghost update: August 8 2023.
We also received an update saying “ We sent you a message about your application. Read the message carefully and take appropriate action as necessary.” (July 18, 2023) But have not received any mail or update regarding that!
Few things you can do yourself:
#1- Call CIC TODAY!!!! You must know what happened? Has your application returned...they need to tell you.
#2- Check application form - which email addresses you gave for contact? check spam folders of those emails.
#3- apply for GCMS notes right away. will cost you $5. It will tell you what actually has been done on the application.
#4- You applied online? Did you get the link to download all your submitted forms? Its there on the portal. Open that link, and check each form for:
i- are all forms signed correctly - by you/your spouse?
ii- are there any missing info?
If you find any mistakes/missing info- missing signature - REDO the form. save it in pdf and attach it to a webform and send it. If you got your file no. then always quote that, if not, then use your passport and dob.
