For those who receive their visa, what percent of completion was your application ?
do you mean the percentage bar in GCKEY? that one is there just to show you how many months remaining for one year. useless.. its not tracking our application progress.

My Passport is due to expire in Feb 2021. Should i renew it now itself or wait until near Feb? How will this affect my application? and how can i communicate to them that it has expired? (Spousal Visa applied in Dec-19) Thanks a lot!

I think its better to renew now and inform the embassy with your new passport copy. Its better if you contact them first, this is their email address.

What's your timeline if you don't mind?

Hello Everyone
I am a Sri Lankan immigrant in Toronto studying and writing about spousal migration to Canada in the last 10 years. I have read of the delays and immense stresses you have faced. Would anyone be willing to participate in an interview and share your experience please? Your name/information will not be revealed. It will take about 30-45 minutes; you will receive an honorarium for your time. Please reply to this message and I will send more information about this work.
Thanks in advance!

Has anyone had trouble accessing GC key account today? My profile says application updated but when I try to open the link to my profile to see the updates the page goes to a page that says "Bad Gateway Error 502".
