November 2018 Outland Applicants (Spousal Sponsorship)

[tranSASK]

Hello experts ,

I got additional document request for following :

Birth certificate

Old school certificate- 5th, and secondary school certificate

Voter id

Although birth certificate was submitted when I sent the file . I know someone from this group got the same request .

Can you please advise if I should send email ( what would be the subject : file number ? ) or CSE ?

Thankyou

It has been really quiet for those November applicants who didn't get their file transferred from Sydney, NS.
I really hope we hear the good news soon!

Hi. There is a change in message on top of progress bar in GCKEY. Anyone knows reason to why has this changed?

Earlier:
We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
You may not hear from us for a little while, this is normal. Most of the progress on your application happens closer to your estimated completion date.

Now:
We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
Make sure you read your messages and take action when we ask you to. This will help move the application process along.

Hi, I see the same update on my Gckey account.

On researching about this change I read its actually a good sign. When your application touches the 6 months mark that's when you see this change on the gckey.

This is what I learnt about this from some threads on this forms.
Good luck!

Hey, did you attempt calling them and finding out what's happening since you hit the 6 month mark?

No, I didnt need to because our file was transferred to NDVO in April.

So FYI for people still waiting for file transfer..... I just called them and my file is still in Sydney pending BGC and if it does get transferred it will be to London VO. No redflags or additional info needed which I already knew.

An update from me. My wife received her PR card in the mail today. So just 3 weeks and 2 days after landing.

So does that mean background is being done in Sydney? As my husband is at the 6 month mark and still no word.

What do u mean by ‘if’ it gets transferred there’s a chance it may not? Is it like in queue to be transferred?

This is all just so messed up!! No use then relying on what gckey says about BGC!!!

Depends on the workload.
They called LVO as the secondary visa office. The person I spoke to first time a few weeks back said its possible it may be processed in Canada. Not sure who to believe lol.
I would rather it gets processed in Canada somewhere.
