Hi. I am trying to summarize our case:
-principal applicant's residence: Romania
-type of application: conjugal relationship supported with many evidences (~2 year relationship, about 3-4 visits/total back & forth, pictures, chat logs, financial support, letters of support from reputable Canadian MD, Romanian senator, patients & work colleagues)
-application received: November 1, 17 (2-3 weeks later it was returned back to me since the application checklist form has changed and we used an outdated one - anyways, the application was quickly resubmitted after)
-December 27, 17 requested the IMM 5669 form to be completed along with the police certificates
-January 19, 18 - requested the medical visit to be done (which was done early Feb 2nd or 3rd)
-February 6, 18 - we got notified that the application has been transferred to the "visa office in Bucharest for further processing"
Unfortunately that was the last update we ever got and we're going crazy here, checking the website on a daily basis since we were used to see something moving on a monthly basis. Now it's been 4 months since the application was transferred but the background check hasn't even begun yet (see the screenshot). What's your opinion so far? Thanks. Eddie
