Your question isn't very clear. Are you asking how long it takes to sponsor a spouse through Family Class Sponsorship? If so, then it depends on the method of sponsorship and applicant's country of origin. It take take a few months to well over a year.

Hi,

Yes, that is what I meant. I had applied under CEC under the old process and my country of origin is India. Now, I will be applying for my spouse under Family Class Sponsorship.

Thanks

Around a year in that case. Note that since you are a PR you must be living in Canada at the time you submit the application and must continue living in Canada while the application is processed. You can take a few short trips outside of Canada - but make sure you keep them to 2-3 weeks.

Just a bit curios to know if anybody has applied under the same process and have got the spousal PR done in less than 12 months.
