Hi I'm Nina, good to meet you all!
Am sponsoring my hubby who is currently in Canada on a student visa... application (incl. for OWP) submitted Dec 8, 2016... AOR1 Dec 23, 2016... OWP issued Mar 27, 2017... PCC requested April 11, 2017. We have a lawyer helping us, and he's pretty good at advising us and staying on top of things (though expensive).
My hubby is from Colombia and worried about how long the PCC takes as well as the process involved. However, we're following the instructions on the CIC page we were referred to and keeping track of emails/scans showing that we've paid for the PCC with the private agencies referred to, so we can submit that.
Am keeping my fingers crossed that we receive a spousal approval soon! But it seems from looking at the 2016 entries that it could be about six months after AOR?
Good luck everyone!
