In general any application will follow the default timeline which is 12 months from the day your application was received. No one can tell exactly how long it will take. Some takes less and other longer it is a matter of luck and depends on a case by case basis. Additional paper work they might ask or they might not ask for. Commonly, they may require an updated Background Schedule A form and Police Certificate. Also some applicants might be required to redo the medical check up if it expire. In case of interview they ask for additional proofs of relationship and sometimes the original marriage certificate.

Congratulations for file transfer. When did you apply?

We applied in early april 2020, And just got the news yesterday dec 3rd that I was accepted as a sponsor and it was being sent to cairo for further processing.
One year from being received in April? Or one year from when they receive it in Cairo?

One year from April, more or less. It's been 13 months for me now and still waiting. Hopefully it's going to be faster for you
