Hi Amir,
Between April 10 and Sept. 17 you had your Medical exam results approved? right?
the file will not show up DM before the medical, is that right?

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to share my timeline and ask you a few question:

Outland Spousal Sponsorship

PA: Iran
Application Received: December 28, 2018
AOR1: February 10, 2019
Biometric fee payment Requested: February 11, 2019 - (I've done Biometric before and it's valid until 2025)
Started processing: February 20, 2019
SA (Sponsor Approval): March 30, 2019 - (Federal and provincial)

No sign of improvement since then.
So anyone knows why some people with the same start date already got their pre-arrival or PPR and some still not moving?
Could anyone contact the embassy for any explanation?
Is Ankara Office keeping the files waiting for a long time?
Is anyone experienced any delay more than usual processing time with this embassy?
----

Hi Tahoura,

With a two weeks time shift, our file and timeline is almost exactly like yours;
Received on Jan 15, 2019
Started processing: April 12
Biometrics done and sponsor approved;
CSQ on May 30.
No news after that.
I was hoping to receive a notice for the medical tests at least !

Hi,
No, the medical exam was approved afew days before file transfer. As much as I know, decision is not made until medical is passed

I am surprised why you received your medical request so early in your time line while I have not yet received it. For some it is sent right after the receipt of their files, for some others it is delayed.

Overall, it is good that your file is finalized in less than a year...
Congrats

Thank you
Luckily most of Iranian cases here have come to a decision made point in less than a year
However I know Qubec cases could be abit different. For us, sponsor approve, bio and medic were issued in afew days one after another.

Congrats!
Did you have an "Application/Profile Updated" under your current status on Gckey as well or it was just updated on Ecas?
My wife's Gckey was changed to "Application/Profile Updated" after the ECAS changed to DM. But an hour later, we signed in and it was back to "submitted". Did you experience the same?
