Thanks for sharing. We received sponsor AOR on Oct 30th but nothing after. PA is also in Vietnam. Can you clarify what you mean by AOR PA that you received on Nov 19th? Is it an email sent to PA containing biometric request?

yes the pa biometric request will have a different uci. Make an account tracker with that.

Thank you for your clarification. We did register two account trackers. One under sponsor UCI. The other under PA's UCI. Both statuses have not changed with no update or messages. Maybe certain application just takes longer to get reviewed once AOR is received...

Based on what I saw in this tracker, spousal sponsorship in general takes longer in terms of processing times compared to other immigration (non-family) programs. There’s quite a few cases waiting since 2023: https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/consolidated-spousal-sponsorship-tracker

Most of the listed October cases are still at the AOR stage…
