November 2018 Outland Applicants (Spousal Sponsorship)

[laura.sbai00]

Greetings. Below is my time line can any one tell me how long it will take from this stage till getting request for passport submission.

1. We received application for permanent residence on September 7, 2018.
2. We sent correspondence on December 20, 2018. If has not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please have do so as soon as possible. Please wait until receives the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.
3. We sent a letter on February 5, 2019. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
4. We sent medical instructions on February 19, 2019. To avoid delays, please provide us with the information requested as soon as possible. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
5. Medical results have been received.
6. We sent correspondence acknowledging receipt application(s) on March 8, 2019.
7. We started processing application on March 8, 2019.

On march 8 i got an email from london office that they are started working on my application but its been more than 2 months no updates. Over the cic web site its shows in process. Can any one tell me how long it will take from this point untill get PR.

The short answer is....up to 12 months. No one really knows the exact processing times for each visa office. They all vary. Have a look at a thread for the London office to get a better idea of current processing times. But still, every case is different and there is nothing reliable solution or inquiry that can be done to speed it up within the 12 months. Patience is key I’m afraid.
All the best and good luck.

Hey guys, do you need to use mycic or can we just post our documents? We've been asked to submit the last few documents, but mycic doesnt seem to be that easy, so we are thinking of just posting the required documents. Do you think thats best?

I got PPR for my wife yesterday. ECAS shows Decision Made under Permanent Residence Application Status. However, it does not show any new message when I click on it.

Also, GCKey still says we are processing your background check, we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements and your application is in progress.

I received the pre-arrival email on 15th May, background check started the same day. Also, the file is being processed in NDVO. I'm in India right now with my wife and will be submitting her passport today.

There couldn't be any better timing for this update, we had an amazing trip and got the good news while we were on the trip.

Did you cross the border or book an appointment? Congrats! I’m assuming your wife was already in Canada with you as you sent the PPR to Ottawa?

You can order notes as well try calling the agent and if you have crossed the 6 months mark, ask him. to drop an email for the immigration officer to look into your application.

Actually I’m outside Canada and it’s a bit difficult for me to make the call and they don’t give information to sponsor so my spouse can’t make the call.

Ask your spouse to call and get on the conference, So basically you will be talking to them. In the mean time do order your notés
