Wow, that is quick ... hopefully your husband receives his PPR soon and arrives here while the weather is still beautiful, wouldn't want his first impression of Canada to be in the dead of winter lol.

Although this was in 2014, but both my husband and I got an email saying that they were ready to issue the visa and they gave him an appointment to come into the embassy. The email was received on February 21st and his appointment was for March 5th. I'm sure it's not the same for everyone though, some people's files just seem to move along more quickly.

Good luck and hope this is fast process for you both!
Yes, fast it appears in Ottawa. Now it will be Rabat making the contact. Back in January 2015, file was transfered in 5 days. Was hoping same or less & keep watching emails for ppr. They really don't need to drag it out. Me too, I want him here in August. Inchallah.
I got GNR tickets for us. It's next week. Boo cic.

Hi guys
We sent our application on May 2017 and was received in Rabat on July 27.. Since then we never got any update from the immigration office in Rabat. Have anyone been called for an interview recently and how long did it take to process your file?
I think the immigration office may contact me for another medical exams as the last one expire this month already, if they do that may make a delay to process my application? Have anyone had to redo the medical exam and how long did it take to receive it?
Many thanks, and happy new year

It is posted on their website that the processing time for most applications will take about 12 months, I think it is about time to contact them if you do not hear from them sooner

Our file in Rabat since June 23, and has been in process without any progress since then. CGkey update is always the same: we are processing your file, the eligibility of the applicant is being checked since then. All our efforts requesting information from them via emails or web form are in vain. Response in CIC canada is the same, they do not have access to the file and it is within processing time of 12 months. We have also requested officer's notes on October 3 and it suppose to take only 30 days...it is almost 90 days now. It has been a very frustrating experience. Medical also expired in November, the status on medical is saying...you do not need medical exam, if this changes we will contact you.

Thanks a lot for your reply
We are really going through the same frustrating experience, and the waiting part is so hard. I hope you guys hear some good news very soon. I think after you hear from them, it will not take long and will contact us too as our file was received in Rabat just a month after they received yours. I am worried about the medical, as I heard if you need to redo it, then it is gonna slow processing your application for another two months
I wish if they just let us know if that is the case so we can redo the medical and send it now and avoid any delay
Please keep us updated if there is something changes about your application and will do the same
Good luck and happy holidays

Our file was received by rabat office in July 27th, and we have not got any update yet.
Wow - why is it taking so long. They were supposed to have decreased the waiting times and Rabat was only supposed to take around 9 months before the changes. They received our application on Aug 30, 2017 and file was transferred to Rabat last month on Jan. 23rd. Looks like we are going to have a long wait!

I am sponsoring my husband, we applied February 23 2017, file was transferred to Rabat on 23 June and then it was silence until end of January 2018. He got invite for interview on 7 February. He passed it and as his medical was expired in November, they asked him to repeat it, it now passed and we are still waiting. I am so rediculously tired of that office and the whole process.

It is such a long process. It is great that he passed the interview though. I hope you are together soon.:)
