February 2020 Spousal sponsorship Outland
- Thread starter asv_21084
- Start date
To be totally honest, this was a 40 minute video so I just scrubbed through it to find the relevant section so apologies if I missed something but if it’s what he was talking about from around 10:50 onwards he doesn’t seem to mention it’s only visa-exempt countries? Also, I would imagine ‘committed couples’ is likely an inclusive phrase that encompasses both married and unmarried couples.Thats for "bi-national couples" from visa exempt countries..Lets face it, we are sh*t out of luck.
To the original user who posted about this news, he also doesn’t say an update for this is due in ‘The royal speech’, merely a more vague timeline of ‘sooner rather than later’. Interesting nonetheless, we’ll wait and see what happens I suppose.
In order to get our spouses into Canada, they would need a TRV. He can open Canada's borders to ALL but our spouses would still not be able to come!
Nowhere in the videos is there any mention for VISA EXEMPTION for foreign spouses.
You are mixing up Covid exemptions with Visa exemptions.
Visa exemptions is never gonna happen, our govt will never let 1000's of applicants to continye the sponsorship from Inland.
This MP is talking about lifting Covid restrictions, nothing more
REALITY CHECK PEOPLE
Guys, he is just saying a plan is coming soon for spousal sponsorship couples. He would say "married couples" but some of us are common-law hence "long term committed." He pretty much had no other details to share. It is refreshing to see another MP acknowledge the 6-month delay and lack of timeline, and he genuinely seems concerned.
I really, really hope this announcement "soon" turns out to be an actual, robust and ethical solution and not just another opportunity for stalling and blaming social distancing. The world has figured out how to stay safe AND work, and I'm sorry but this "reason" is in danger of becoming an *excuse.*

I would like to put few points regarding the present situation.
Many of us Who are PR not citizens are just in canada to fulfill condition of to be in Canada to sponsor our spouses while our spouse is in his/ Her home country. Thus we can raise this point at appropriate level to waive this condition so that we can sponsor our spouse while staying with him/her.
Thanks

Somebody from FB group(Canada Spousal Sponsorship) wrote this yesterday (they are Lebanon) :Hi everyone,
We are outland February 2020 applicants and have recently received a pre-arrival letter, with that being said we have not yet received anything that has to do with SA, but everything else is just about finished. Does this mean SA has went through or..? I’m assuming we wouldn’t have gotten to this stage had I not been approved but then again I haven’t received anything saying that a decision has been made on that. If anyone is in a similar situation let me know.
Application sent: February,13,2020
Medical And Biometrics Request: March 4th,2020
AOR: April 30th, 2020
Medical and Biometrics received: July 6th, 2020
Pre-arrival: August, 28,2020
Thanks in advance.

AOR1 on March 3rd and nothing else.
I tried everything possible, even talking to the MP, nothing at all...
And now with the situation in Lebanon worsening every day and finally the final blow, the Beirut explosion which left my wife with bed sheets as windows, I'm just sitting here feeling hopeless but hoping for the best...
