This refers to your application for admission to Canada.

In order for us to continue the processing of your application, we require the following:

Once the officer has decided the date they will let you know via email most likely. Usually they send out emails with scheduled interview date but from looks of it they seem busy right now. No one here can tell you how long because I have seen applicants receiving the same email as you did and waiting for nearly 3 months to be scheduled. I hope this is not the case here and the applicants I am talking about were from London and Mexico visa office.
Is there something in your application that triggered the interview that you can think of? Age difference, educational background differences, lack of traditional wedding, marriage done in haste, family unavailable at the ceremonies are few of the major reasons that can raise red flags in spousal sponsorship applications.

Thank you very much. I could not think of any possible reason now.

Is this a first marriage for both you and your spouse? I heard that divorcees are looked at with more scrutiny.

 

[Ajay1972]

Nothing

Me either

Its First Marriage for both of us. No Age gap as well

 

[Ajay1972]

That's strange. If you don't mind me asking, did you guys know each other before getting engaged/married?

 

[Gurubharran]

That's strange. If you don't mind me asking, did you guys know each other before getting engaged/married?

Nope. We got ourselves known each other through Matrimony.

 

[Ajay1972]

Nope. We got ourselves known each other through Matrimony.

That might be why then. They probably didn't see enough of a history between you two, and just wanted to talk to your spouse to make sure that it is legit. It sucks though that it will delay the application more.

 

[abhanair]

Hey anyone heard of any DM/PPR today?

No

Yeah

 

[amitgoyal_ec]

Yeah

Just hope for an early interview date, I have seen cases where the Pre-Arrival, DM follows quickly after the interview within a week

AS I wrote be4, your file 1st went to Missi.. to be finalized rt here in Canada but then they felt like sending to NDVO for minor doubts.
It is written in letter "approximately four to six weeks before the date scheduled" I read 1 guy got a month's notice thus you have sufficient time to prepare for the Interview. Even if they didn't ask for more docs; it does not hurt to take max available photos, up to date record of pone calls etc...be safe than sorry later in the room "I forgot at home" You are not allowed to take any electronic recording device with you. I think Cell phones can only be taken if SHUT Off the power? Not sure even any cell phone is allowed even shut off condition!
I don't think that you need further answers re; what they ask? Did you order GCMS notes which could help in details what is main concern? May be it is too late now as GCMS takes min of 30+ days.
Basically they have Qs about 1 or 2 things about your relationships. So be prepared both spouses. They pick up a word from application from imm5532 and ask Qs. If it differs they make a note, then ask U more and so on..Go thru what you actually wrote in PART C - INFORMATION ABOUT RELATIONSHIP. I am sure you or your agent have a copy of all forms sent. Again Honestly is the Best policy there without confused face. Answers should be given politely not angrily. Some times 1 has to speak bit more about relationships to impress. Ask anything here if still Qs
AND lastly it is nothing to worry too much as interviews are not conducted just to refuse but to clarify things.

I have read few posts earlier but I can't find it in threads.
