I thought it was a delay from that visa office only. We have to keep waiting and be patient
Spousal sponsorship
- Thread starter Leon
- Start date
It seems that IRCC stopped giving any medical request for a couple months already, if various trackers are to be believed. Only people who already had a medical exam for a previous application already on file got their medical passed, everyone else is waiting.
It is unclear why this is happening, but in any case, background checks are always what make applications take so much time for PR sponsorship, so as long as this situation is resolved by the time people start having their background check done, nothing is changing for their timelines.

My wife applied for my PR in spousal category in July 2023. Then I received AOR in September 2023. Also my medical and biometrics have been done. My medical was updated on 2nd November 2023. Till now, my application is undergoing background check and eligibility is showing not started yet. Can anyone tell me normally how much time it takes?
Thanks
Thanks
That depends if you are applying to Quebec or other parts of canada. You can also go to https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-processing-times.html and check the processing times.
yes, the eligibility is completed, and sponsorship approved today. No medical request was found. Mississauga office.
Hello gentlemen’s
cic portal says there is no minimum income for spousal sponsorship, but some ircc staff said the officer may assess sponsors yearly minimum income.
Here, my wife yearly employment income is not more than 20,000 CAD. So does she become eligible to sponsor me?

There is no minimum, but the sponsor is supposed to have enough to cater for the PA while the sponsorship is underway, and also have enough to repay Canada is the PA get social benefits (that doesn't include EI or healthcare) during the duration of the undertaking.
With only 20K CAD a year, IRCC may question how she can care for herself let alone you during the sponsorship and undertaking. This is a very low amount to even live alone in Canada, and she may have to provide proof she can cover for the both of you.
I received an update on my application and thought I would update my timeline.
Applied: Dec 3
AOR: Dec 22
BIL: Jan 24
Booked appointment for tomorrow. Will update if i receive anything else.

Hi Everyone,
Could you kindly advise our case below?
I've applied for sponsoring my partner in October 2023. My partner's work permit will be expiring in 8 months. However, we got a Procuredure Fairness letter (which we are working with a consultant to address their concerns and will send an explanation letter next week). I wonder if my partner can apply for the open work permit during the PFL process (as I've heard that no identified timeline for their response to PFL). Thank you.

Hey guys i was hoping if someone can shed some light on my current situation. I am a canadian citizen residing in canada i want to sponsor my wife,she is also currently in canada. We are currently waiting on our marriage certificate we were told it takes about 8 weeks to receive. But the issue is i have some family commitment’s in USA for which i have to stay in the states for 4-5 months. Is there a way we can start our spousal application while i am in USA and my wife in canada ?
Thanks
Thanks
Apply 'outland.' Spouse can still be in Canada (best if she remain in status i.e. with valid vistor status, extend if necessary).
Hello guys
need some important advice.
I wife's spousal application is currently in process and last week I was laid off from my job due to slow business and overall macroeconomic scenario here in Canada.
I haven't yet applied for employment assistance because I am not sure what implocations it will have when we apply for tourist visa post getting the AOR. Can anyone please advise what may be the implications? should I apply for employee assistance or should wait

Hey guys!
Just wondering how long it takes to update biometrics as completed in GCkey/PRportal after giving Fingerprints?
