I am not sure if notes are being shared for the new portal

You can call or raise web form - Both have no impact lately [ saying this out of my personal experience and what I have seen here on the forum]

You can wait if not in a hurry

Some people are applying a 2nd time too - I am considering it as I am waiting since October

All the best

Have a few friends from Nov for spouse still waiting

Jan 2022 and Feb 2022 [ even if we are just a few days into the month] are hearing in lightning speed

Whatever this is now I am feeling defeated and like a fool

Hello Everyone:
Confused about re-applying visitor visa for my spouse again. I am a Canadian citizen.
Confusion:
Sep20,2021 - got married in India
Oct18,2021 - applied vv to invite spouse on new portal, not knowing about pregnancy
Nov03,2021 - wife did a pregnancy test, and confirmed positive pregnancy. Didn't update IRCC. Should we have told IRCC about pregnancy?
Jan22,2022 - received refusal on VV.
Jan26,2022 - applied spousal PR online (pregnancy disclosed)

Feb2022 - So I am worried now, that if we re-apply for vv, could they say that we misrepresented, or concealed intent to give birth ; on the first application.
From IRCC website: Therefore, in some cases, the intentional concealment of intent to give birth in Canada may lead to an examination of admissibility under section 40 of the IRPA.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/visitors/persons-wishing-enter-canada-purpose-giving-birth.html

For one thing, this is not birth tourism, as child will be a Canadian citizen upon birth anyways.
Thanks in advance for your responses.

Whats reason behind refusal
