I was initially approved for my PR (received notice of approval and Request of sending passport) last July, and I was so stupid enough that I noticed them I have been in a common-law relationship and then you know the story. I thought it would have been a quick thing adding my spouse, now it seems it's going to take forever.
My timeline:
July 2017, PPR received and I sent the marital status update.
July 2017, a few days later I received the email requesting medical and background info of my partner.
September 2017, my partner's medical is received, and background documents have been received.
"Background Check is in progress". Her UCI is added to my application.
No further update afterwards... and it shows that the background check has not started ever since.
Now it's already July 2018, my PGWP is going to expire in November 2018, should I apply for the bridging? Or should I wait for a few months more, I don't want to waste so much money on these bullshit applications. Also if I apply bridging work permit do I need to redo my medical (which was done in April 2017 as requested)
Anyone has some good idea of how much longer will I be waiting?
Thanks!
ps. I am in Ontario.
