we called today to see what is going on with our application. We found out that Ottawa sent our application (US OUTLAND) back to Mississauga.

Is this common? How badly will the mess up our processing times?

I remember you mentioned your wife has a dui? Would that be the reason? Or were they able to tell why?

They haven't even started background check. Her dui was dismissed as well. 100% clean FBI background check. We also have a legal opinion from a Canadian immigration lawyer that contains all supporting docs and explains why she is admissible to Canada

DUI dismissed as in she was never convicted and it got tossed out the window sort of thing?

Yes, she was placed in a program called "probation before judgment" No conviction or anything. Clean FBI background check. Also confirmed by a Canadian immigration lawyer she is admissible to Canada. She can truthfully say she has a clean criminal record.

Ok, I was going to say if she was convicted and charged, that could be why, this sounds a little different though. However I don't know that it doesn't mean they wouldn't see that it happened, I can't comment on that.

It seems a load balancing thing to me.
To be honest I can't see why CPC-M would transfer it to Ottawa only to have Ottawa send it back to CPC-M to load balance, if you mean in the case of balancing workload/applications...I guess it's possible, but it seems unlikely/maybe illogical? Anything is possible though.

We told them it happened. We told them on the schedule A she was arrested. Others with similar dismissed dui have been successful. As long as there is no conviction

The lady on the phone said they share work with Ottawa

Right - so maybe that's it. Could cause extra processing times...we have friends where the applicant mooned a cop when he was 18 and it came back to cause delays ten years later on the application, so maybe they just need to look into it further.

Really not sure I haven't heard of CPC M transferring to Ottawa and then taking it back to CPC M but it also wouldn't surprise me with Immigration :)

Have any US Outland decisions come out of CPC M with the new application that you've seen/know of?

All the DMs I've noticed so far have been from VO but maybe there will be decisions coming out of CPC M.
