Hello Guys,

Any American applicants who have applied outland, but live in Canada?

I have sponsored my wife, who currently lives with me in Canada. She entered on a visitor visa and then we applied to extend her visa based on the fact that she was applying for PR. We were granted an extension and we have a visitor record for her that expires in September 2019. She has been living with me in Canada for about a year.

I have just received our biometrics request letter, and it explicitly states that she has to go outside Canada to get them done. I am worried about crossing the border and coming back, is this an issue? Has anybody ran into this problem before, and got the biometrics done in Canada instead?

As always, any help is appreciated!

no she will have to go outside canada ..there is noway she can do it inside canada

Hi,
One way to check your application status online without linking it is by using the below link

https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?lang=en

Based on your app receipt, you should hear something possibly a request for biometric and medicals next week. Good luck

Thank you!
I can't seem to link my application on Gkeys! how do i do that? TIA

 

[Confused2011]

Just did my biometrics in Düsseldorf! Still waiting for 'medical' and request for CSQ.

how was the request for Biometrics sent? E-mail? was it sent to you or the sponsor? TIA

I first tried using File number and UCI copied and pasted from the AOR email. Then tried birth place (put the city only), with both 1 and 2 for number of applicants, didn't work. I then tried the file number and PA's family name, with birth place "city, state" copied and pasted from IMM0008 form, with 1 for the number applicant. Didn't work! I changed it to two and that FINALLY WORKED!!!

Summary:
File Number and PA's Last Name
Birth place as per IMM0008 (city, state)
Where applicant intends to stay information as per IMM0008
2 for number of applicants [applicant (wife) and sponsor (me)]

Hope this helps! and thanks!

Thank you! i did the same, changed the 2 for the number of applicants (weird, because there is one person being sponsored, so should be 1 applicant, but two because the sponsor has submitted an application, it counts as two applicants? so it makes sense that way).

 

[Confused2011]

anyone who has linked their application on GCkey, does it show processing time? mine says 10 months.

I am the sponsor and when I open the ECAS it shows file received and in process since 2nd July and If I open ECAS with the receipt then it shows that file is under process for Permanent residency. I guess we'll get the update soon via email. If anything changes I will update
Hope for the best

Hi,

Can you tell me how you check the ecas with the receipt please
