Hi guys!
I hope that this new week brings a lot of good news on this forum. This is just to update you guys on the status of our application; this morning in GcKey our application was approved and everything completed. There is a new section added with the counterfoil number and expiry date... I believe that my spouse will receive his COPR later this week. I already knew about this as last week I called IRCC and the agent I talked to told me that our application stayed in Mississauga however the visa will be issued from local VO, therefore she had access to the notes because the application was being processed in Canada. She told me that the passport was received on January 7 and the agent in charge started processing in on January 8. The latest update on the notes on her side showed that the application was approved and that everything was ready to be printed on January 9, 2020.
