and finally received my PR card after 90 days of landing. :) Good luck to all fellow travelers in this bit frustrating journey. Patience is the key my friends and believe me the destination fruit is sweet.

Forgot to thank few of my colleagues here who have helped me with various stages of the process. Really appreciate it guys!! Keep up the good work and pls let me know if you need any help. Would be happy to do so.

Hello, This is my first time posting here, my spousal application(india) was received on 30th June 2020 and then there was silence for 6 months, and then I received my application number and SA, medical, and biometrics in January 2021. After that, my file was transferred to Ottawa(I think) in April 2021, and it went back to “we started processing” by the end of April. There were some documents required, which we sent in the first week of May 2021. After that, there has been no response. I just wanted to know if anyone is in the same boat as me?

Question please. If you discover you ommitted the relatives section on the IMM5532, Can you use a web form to supply this information while your application is still in process?

I think that's the only way to communicate with them when you realised it, atleast it wud move them to respond or better still correct it. Just add a letter to explain to alongside the omitted form or document. I don't think your idea to contact them with a webform is bad, I feel waiting for them can take forever.

Hello
Putting my timeline here :

Application received : June 16 2020
PA : India
AOR : december 10th 2020
Medical request : december 10th 2020
Medical passed : december 16th 2020
Biometrics not required, already done 2 years before
VO : NDVO

And until now no news since the past 10 months

I already got my local MP involved. The MP sent an enquiry to IRCC, no more news than the timeline above
The Ecas only shows processing and nothing else

I wonder what is stalling the process for almost a year now

Order your GCMS notes.

Also, wait a few weeks and then go back to the MPs office and ask for assistance, not just inquiry - your application is now over a year and it's okay to ask for them to find out why it's delayed (you already know it's delayed).

(Keep in mind they often don't do more than standard inquiry the first time you contact them. The 'wait a few weeks' first is just politeness and shows them you're not a crazy person.)

OK, I will now send the request for GCMS notes
For the MP, the enquiry was done last July, so 3 months ago. I will get back to him to ask for assistance
I will inform as soon as I get news for the GCMS

Yes, then definitely approach the MP now and request they look into it more.

Hi ... My friend received the PPR email for outland application today. He has to submit the documents to the Visa Application Center (VAC) in New York. However we have confusion about 1 line in the email.

Please visit the VAC website at the link below for details on how to submit your package for secure transmission. (*Please note a service fee is applicable) If you have any questions about how to submit your original passport, please contact the VAC using the information available on the following website: https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/usa/

Do we have to pay somewhere or send cheque/check for the return envelope along with the below list of documents or just the below docs are enough?
1. One copy of this letter, including the Updated Information Chart in Appendix A.
2. Passport(s) OR photocopy(ies) of passport(s), as explained in Step 2.
3. Two (2) photos of yourself and of each accompanying family member respecting precise specifications that can be found at.

Thanks in Advance!
