I think they were asking about the PA

Yes, because he applied for OWP before he got BIL for PR. IRCC requires new biometrics for PR applications.

Yes, my husband received BIL today and made an appointment for the 5th. (See signature for rest of timeline.)

My guess is your passport plus whatever evidence you are submitting for your residency in Canada should be enough but maybe there is another way.

Did they stamp your passport at the border?

They typically show up on GCkey at the top of the application page within 1 or 2 days but it may take a little longer for it to be marked completed there.

Medical is considered part of the background check so it doesn't need to come before the eligibility check. It can come after.

It's pretty much pointless for inland applicants because you can't access the services if you're already in Canada but it is an indication that your eligibility is completed or about to be and you will receive AIP soon!

My husband and I sent a webform about it and they got back to us. "We are aware of the issue" and "the appropriate departments are working on it."

It might be a good idea but not needed until your current status is closer to expiring. Maybe wait until one month is left on your current WP? I am not familiar with QC timelines.

QC applications take longer than non-QC applications. Since you just got your AIP, you have months left until your background check is completed. The average processing time for QC Inland applications is currently 2 years. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do now is wait. PS: the...

The PR Tracker has been broken since mid-June, so you're not alone there. Newer applicants can't create an account. IRCC says they're working on fixing it but who knows how long that'll take.

This is certainly not something I am an expert on, but I suspect this means your husband may be eligible to sponsor in general, but not to sponsor *you*.

My husband and I paid with our application. There was an option to pay the biometrics fee with the application fee.

It is frustrating to see other people's applications move quickly while yours is stagnant and very expensive waiting while one's spouse cannot work.

rude ...

I guess you can use the client information section to upload additional information and refer to that in the form ("See Client Information for more detail" or something like that). You will also need to upload the AOR there once you get it.

Ah, ok, me too. Best of luck with your application.

Where did you get this information? The average processing time is currently 11 months for inland non-QC, which means approximately 50% of applications are processed within 11 months.
