February 2024 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship
- Thread starter dialsquare
- Start date
Is your eligibility complete ? when it start and when did they finish it ? What is your VO ? Did your get P1 and P2 ?
Did your Eligibility and Background check finish ? Got ECoPR ? What was your visa office ?
Sorry for delayed reply. To answer your question, my sponsor's eligibility is complete (has been since last April). All I see on my online tracker is my eligibility hasn't started and my background check in progress. My medical/biometrics was done last May, I have the Certificat du Quebec since last August (crucial thing for me as I need it to live in Quebec), and I got a 2 year work permit last October. Otherwise no progress, apart from a ghost update on my tracker a couple of weeks ago which I assume relates to when I ordered notes on my file.
Applied: Feb.27th.2024
Sponsor: Canadian Citizen
Applicant: Afghanistan
AOR Received: March 4th, 2024
Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone was able to help me out with an issue I have. I applied for spousal Sponsorship for my wife in Afghanistan 1 year ago. 1 week after applying, I got the AOR. On May 8th 2024 she went to Pakistan to do her biometrics. on June 4th 2024 it got accepted. After the biometrics, she received the email to do her medicals on August 23rd 2024. She went to Pakistan and the medicals information was sent to the IRCC on August 28th 2024. The reason my wife is doing all her work in Pakistan is because of the Taliban situation in Afghanistan, there are no offices there to do any sponsorship work so the IRCC has told me that all afghans are required to do all necessary work in Pakistan.
Ever since August 28th, we have been waiting for the passport request email so we can get the visa. In December, I found out that the IRCC wants to do an interview with my spouse in Pakistan and that's the reason she hasn't gotten the passport request email yet. I asked the IRCC when that interview would be and they told me that it could be 1 month later or it could be 1 year later. they don't have any idea themselves on when it could be.
The application we submitted was outland so it was only supposed to take 10-12 months for the whole process to finish but now its been 12 months and we still don't know when this interview will be.
My question is, has anyone else had this type of issue? Does anyone know when we can expect the email for the interview? Does anyone know why they are taking so long to send that email??
I have emailed IRCC multiple times but they aren't getting back to me. the only thing they are saying is that an interview is needed but they themselves don't know when it will be.

From what I've read in the past on this forum, that's happened for other people too. The tracker seems to be slow at updating sometimes. Interesting that you got the PR without any notification though. I guess one has to keep checking the post. We use a mailbox and only check it once a week or so.
Grats by the way. I'm still waiting on mine.
I think people who are subscribed to this thread will post updates when they have any news.
I know people might update. Reason I asked is I am waiting for my application too it’s been 13 months for my application and have not received any update since march. Applied on Feb 15 2024.
it’s just getting very frustrating
Not getting any answers for the web forms

we are also in the same boat, we applied on 21st Feb 2024, What is your visa office?
Why don't you try calling them? I managed to get through on Monday, you just have to click through the options to speak to someone and they also do callbacks if you don't want to wait. I managed to get some information regarding my case but that was mostly reassurance that everything was ok and proceeding fine and it was just my international background check that is yet to complete. They really cannot give more information than that if it's at the background check stage because that is dependent on third party investigation companies.
If you do speak to someone I recommend you be as polite and friendly as possible however.
I had called multiple times and got same kind of information like you. Even reached out to MP and been told to wait.
I had tried every possible thing
Mine is also in New Delhi, The File was transferred from Sydney to New Delhi VO around April/May 2024.
