My community group just had a teleconference Q&A session just like minutes ago with the honorable Minister Ahmed Hussen . I did ask about the rumour that there is no more standard processing time in regard to spousal sponsorship application. He confirmed that it is not true, the standard is still 12 months. No changes.

Hope that helps. Like others have mentioned, take the comments from cic lower level agent with a grain of salt. If not at all.

If it is not clearly mentioned in the cic website, don't buy it

Remember, the 12 month estimate is indicative of 80% of files that were processed within that time frame in the past. It is by no means a guarantee. And, compound that with COVID....Everyone should manage there expectations accordingly.

Hi Did you ask about resumption of work in visa offices ? Do they know when the processing will start again ?

Any tips/info you can share on spousal sponsorship from your meeting with the minister?

Sorry folks, I did not ask any further questions. The only thing I wanted to know is whether the processing time is still 12 months. And it was answered.

Does this mean no spousal applications this year? Or am i reading between the lines. The indefinite delay tells a different story.
You are reading wrong. This study show that due to COVID restriction applications can be less than expected as every country has lockdown and it may difficult for people to complete their application. Thats all. Do dont't lose hope and share only positive vibes only. Everything will be fine. Take Care of yourself and your loved ones.
