@MTA4142 Have you got the OPR? Approved? :D

Just approved!

You can search who are the mps of the city where you school is in Canada.

I think one month is not a problem in comparison to 6 months so hopefully you get the ppr soon

I don't think MPs really help, that's why I got from an MP near the university
According to your address, you belong outside of Canada, let alone Brampton. Each riding is provided with limited resources to help the constituents that reside in their local riding. Moreover, MP offices are here to serve Canadians and not foreign nationals, unfortunately.
Please contact your relevant visa office.

Hello Everyone!

I applied under SDS (family visa) in Brazil on 03/10, got our biometrics done on 10/10, and medicals upfront. The status of the application has been under review since 24/10.. so far has been 64 days and no answers.

I was wondering if this is the current processing time for SDS applications?! As on the IRCC website, it says around 20 calendar days. I am worried as my intake is this January, I was supposed to have moved already but I am still waiting.

Thanks for sharing.
20 days is a myth and should have been taken down a long time ago. 20 day processing was pre-covid. Plan for non SDS processing times, and if you get a decision by the end of the year then you are fortunate.

Hi all,
Im applying for SDS from india and my husband for sowp (afghan national living in india for 5 years). We were common law partners for over a year and now newly weds. What would be the processing times for both visas applied together? Also does his nationality affect the processing times as he's applying from india?

Yesss. I applied from Afghanistan and after one year and 10 days. I got my ppr. You know my background verification took 8 months. So anyway I got it.

Now I want to know how long visa stamping may take. Do you have any information?

:DOh, wow! @MTA4142! I haven't been to the forum for many months now and actually saw your previous message only yesterday!

Have you gotten your positive decision, for real?! Oh, congratulations! Many many many congratulations! :D:D

I am scared to even ask ........ how long has it been?? Oh, I see the answer to my question in your later post! One year and 10 days! You're officially one of the Heroes of this forum! What a feeling it must be! I am so so so excited for you! :D (I'd choose other and many more different emojis, but hey, it's something this forum needs to work on!)

Visa Stamping should not take long, two weeks tops!

Congratulations @MTA4142! :) Way to go!

Yes, the POE letter will appear in your GCKey around the time when you get your passport. If I remember correctly, we got approved June 6, got our POEs June 16, and got our passports back around June 23 or 24.
