January- February Trv timeline 2019 (India)

[JJMINDIA]

Nope she is still in India and I haven't heard anything from IRCC for her PR application.
We can submit both medical and biometrics from within Canada. What I think is we dont need to submit biometrics again for the PR application. They already have that.
I have submitted her application in Feb first week and waiting for Acknowledgement too.

Hi Micky11111,
Have you received AOR or SA or Bio or MR for your wife PR application??

Biometrics request: 24th jan 2019
Biometric submitted: 29th jan2019 (VFS Bangalore)
Acknowledge letter: 7th Feb 2019

Still waiting. Could anyone who fall in the same timeline please let us know when you got your passport collection mail? Also how much time it takes after the passport gets collected? (For VFS Bangalore)

Got my passport submission request today. Have submitted the same to Bangalore VFS today. How long would this take now?

There is no set pattern. But there are possibilities that you would hear something soon by this week.
