Hello! I am new here. What do you mean by SSP? My spouse is in the Philippines and our last update is just the AOR in the first week of March. And I am thinking if we could apply for a visit visa for him so that when Canada opens its doors to temporary residents, he could come here if that is possible.

Thank you!
He might be refused, better apply for spousal visa already.

Does this mean they will not touch applications submitted before pandemic? They will just stop applicati9ns in the middle? The once who are just DM away from final approval?
 
They continue to work on international student visas but there are not enough resources to process applications of Canadians who pay taxes.
I guess Canada like only New comers in any moment, once we became old comers, we are no longer important!!! pathetic !!!
 
Thank you for the response,
when filling up the form for providing the information it asks me about the visa office processing my application.
How do I know which office is processing the information?
I belong from India and living in GTA. Sent the file to Nova Scotia office.
Thanks
It's Sydney, Nova Scotia

CERB doesn't affect your eligibility as a sponsor

You kinda state that in the paperwork, which you then send to an immigration office. You're supposed to apply outland according to your respective locations. What did you state when you applied?

I mentioned that I'm in canada and sent the application to nova scotia in March but no AOR received yet I checked spread sheet. Seems no one received any update after Feb 27 so. Is that true they are not working or touching those applications or not processing at this moment ????

I did get AOR1 on March 6th but right after around that date the government offices closed. So far a lot of employees are still working remotely, which might be affecting the processing
 
My wife's spouse visa application was received by Ircc on 10th January 2020 and her biometrics and medical records reached ircc on 24th February 2020.however after that there has been no update. As it was a paper based application I am not able to link the same through online account. Does anyone have any idea how much more time will it take? We are from India.
 
Hey all, in the same boat as you, no written news from IRCC since about March 6th. If you do have an application number I do encourage you to phone the IRCC number and follow the prompts to get the automated updates. You have to use the PA’s birth year, not SA’s when they ask.

in addition, since we had hired a lawyer, IRCC wouldn’t provide much info to me, since I’m not listed as an authorized rep. I did a three way call, with my spouse on the line and the live agent provided the update after verifying. No dates or anything, but they provided the status of the police and medical checks. They did say security and eligibility are still pending. I’m wondering what that means in terms of how close we are to the finish line in terms of steps. Considering timing is a complete gong show now anyways.

Timeline is in my signature.
