Hi Everyone, My spousal application was received by CIC on March 3rd 2020. But never heard back since then. Is this normal?

Anyone got AOR1 for spousal applications sent in March?

So far only one according to spreadsheet but really need to divide it into March 15th before and after since that's when things started getting crazy with virus in the west

What are the timelines expected now, for spousal sponsorship?

No idea. My estimate went from 3-6 months to 6-8 months (if we're lucky). I don't get too stressed out over it actually. It'll happen. Just at a slower pace.

They are working on applications as the tracker file shows that they have started the background check for a user on 9th April from Feb applicants. So they are definitely working but slowly at least on the applications that are in the process already. I hope they will start processing the new application soon as well, as mine was delivered on 25th March.

there is some activity in the Mississauga office as i see a few posts in the different threads...This one also seems to have transferred to Missisauga a while back... CPC Sydney continues to be underground...

Looks like after a month they have started working, i hope cpc sydney starts new application processing soon.

No no, I said it will be good if they start the new application processing soon, I haven't said cpc sydney has started.

Sydney is problem no one to scan documents most of the other stuff can be done electronically but it's a bottleneck because of virus but once irs cleared I think it will zoom through the other stages of processing
