I don't understand why the IRCC decided to send the Sponsorship applications to an office with less employees ?
The only thing we've got so far is AOR on November 21st and the application was received on July 26th. We are closing in on the 7 month mark and all they say "everything in your application seems to be in order", I find outrageous that they take more than 2 months to evaluate my eligibility to sponsor my wife.
The cherry on top is that we still need the SA letter PLUS the AOR2 so I can send the documents to the provincial government of Quebec and then wait for the local visa office, there is no transparency on any of this and if you read the small print on their website it says "only 80% of the applications are processed within 12 months" and they add that in the last period that they analyzed they only got like 73% of the applications within that timeframe, so they are basically saying: we are doing a bad job, we know we are and we are not doing anything to improve it...
Sorry for venting here, but this is just ridiculous
