July 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

[keys8014]

guys, its been months but sponsorship approval is nowhere to be found. it looks like the pic below. should i call them to ask about the status of our application?

but most of the applications on the tracker, sponsorship approval is approved in the early stages.

this is worrisome.

Sponsorship approval comes in the form of an email from IRCC, and you can view it on ecas under sponsorship approval. You will not see it where you took that screenshot, gckey only shows the PA's side of the process and nothing about the sponsor.

• How long has the sponsor been living in Canada?
• Does the sponsor meet residency obligation? and have they stayed in Canada during the entire sponsorship period?
• Did the sponsor send a letter from the employer and a CRA NOA? Would you say the NOA shows a strong financial history?
• Was the sponsor missing any required documents from the checklist? if yes, what did they do about those missing documents?

1. since 2013 (got PR in 2019)
2. yes, yes.
3. yes, even sent CRA NOA for previous 3 years (coz last year my income was less due to layoff, but this year everything is fine)
4. no, if there was something missing, they should've returned the application. but i did send additional documents 1 month ago (webform) to further support our application.

i dont know whats missing. there is no update at all.

if there is some concern, they should've atleast send an email so we can clarify (if there is anything to be clarified).

Sometimes they miss to send the SA email. Atleast that was my case. Best thing is to call ircc and ask

Will call them.

But on ecas, it shows only 1 line, "in process". No sponsorship approval there too..

Hi! Same here in my case. It's been 4 months and I still haven't received a Sponsor Approval. I am also worried.

is this normal? biometrics were completed on sept 27, but no update at all on GCkey except that "Date of Biometrics Enrollment and expiry date"

Exactly normal. What were you expecting?

i found this guide (old), it mentioned that upon biometrics passed, the status changes.

Once the medical and biometrics are complete/passed, your account will change to show: https://i.imgur.com/p4tYUJi

Things change.

Yes I did.

Now I am scared because I applied in July but my police certificate for my spouse likely expired in August. Usually has validity of 6 months, hopefully they don't ask me to resubmit...

Does anyone know if they send an email after Biometrics have been passed?
