2018 Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications: timeline and updates
- Thread starter Can_loves_Aus
- Start date
Hello ,
I have some questions in regards to Spouse Sponsorship
1. I am a PR in Canada and my spouse from India recently came on a visitor visa and we wish to apply for here PR through spouse sponsorship.
What is the difference between Outland and Inland application?
Do I need to apply Inland application as my spouse is in Canada?
Also in the document checklist , they have asked for a government issued ID with the same address for my spouse and I .
I live in Alberta and Alberta Registry does not issue the drivers license on visitor visa
I can't think of any other government based ID for my spouse?
Also is it a good idea to submit the OPEN Work Permit application along with it
Thank you!

Hi, I am in the same situation as you, My application was received on May 8th. We have received an DM on sponsor's side and letter recently but nothing on PA side. It is still in progress for eligibility requirement and background check. I am very worried. Please advise when you have an update.
Are there any July 2018 applicants? My Ecas says started processing on 8th Oct 2018. Still haven't received anything. How long did it take for you guys after process started update?
I am a July 2018 applicant. Are you an inland applicant? Where on ecas does it say so, Principal Applicant side?
Thank you, I think I've got the idea about Etobicoke timeline but Mississaga. Because we were planning to go travelling on May, so I just hope by that time I could get my PR card, otherwise we have to rescheduled our vacation time from work.
Ask your rep to confirm that they received: AIP, SA, and DM letter. After these three letters, wait for the landing interview invitation, which is also a letter.
