The wife (Principal Applicant) lives in Pakistan at the moment. Myself (Sponsor) lives in Canada. I am also the Representative on her application. We will live together once she’s in Canada. I am a little confused by your question. My address as Sponsor is correct, her address as Principal...

Wondering if anyone here can shed some light. My wife moved (Principal Applicant), we sent a webform to update her address. It’s updated within 3 days. However IRCC also changed the representative’s address, which is myself, I am looking to submit another webform to correct this, but feel a...

Hello fellow forum members. I am sponsoring my wife - outland application. I am a Canadian citizen and also the representative on her application. My wife (the Principal Applicant) moved homes, so we put in a request into the webform to update her residential address which IRCC did in 3 days...

Congratulations!

You can see all details in my signature or on my profile. Applied July 26, 2023. The visa office, it appears to be Abu Dhabi at the moment but a bit unsure on that, as it has changed around different visa offices. Wife is in Pakistan. We’re just waiting on background check to be completed and...

I'm in a similar timeline as you two but still in background and no pre-arrival or passport request yet. Really hoping to get at least a ghost update or an email in this month of March.

Hello, Yes, here’s the Google sheet for Spousal Sponsorship: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/192sbvjd4vJsEWY_B7w5DgFKBmIPNYo6TjlVWAk-xxxA/edit

How long did background check run for you?

In my circumstances, there's no hard feelings, we know the ties to the home country weren't strong enough so it makes sense. However, we're optimistic on our sponsorship application - I know how it used to be up to 2-3 years for some people, so if it all works out within the 12 months - I'm...

Same situation. Just received rejection for visit visa application for my spouse today. Visit Visa communication came from Visa office in UAE. Hoping to get some update by Friday this week on the Sponsorship application.

Hey everyone, I just checked both IRCC Secure / Unsecure account and the Application Tracker account. They REJECTED my wife's visit visa application as of yesterday. February 27, 2024. Following Reason: • I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your...

Just waiting on next steps. No ghost updates even.

My wife is still awaiting to receive her passport request, but from my understanding is that it could take up to a month after sending passport in and longer depending on the country of the applicant and their respective visa office.

No response - in eligibility and background check in progress. We're most likely to hear back from the Sponsorship application first. Which is better anyway.

Also to follow up on this point above. If the Sponsor also lists themselves as the representative, (there's a form you must fill in the beginning when submitting your application) then all emails would go to the representative, in this case the sponsor and not the Principal Applicant. So I...

Just awaiting for Background Check and Eligibility to complete now. Applied on July 26, 2023. Based on information and dates from outland spousal sponsorship applicant's from previous months on this forum and the Google Sheet. I am estimating to receive Pre-Arrival/AOR2 by around Feb 23 at the...

Something I noticed even previously, is when you hover or right-click on the Islamabad IOM email address, it actually lists two different 2 email addresses on certain webpages. Try sending an email with a clear subject line, with bullet points so it can be read quickly. Feel free to include any...

IOM is awful in communication. The phone lines are useless. Email is the only way. I had lost hope of actually getting an appointment in the original 30 days and I submitted webform to the Visa Office to let them know that it might take longer than the 30 days. I also complained about IOM in...

We had the medical test done on the 26th of December, then IOM sent us an email that eMedical submission has taken place on the 29th of December. Then today on the 31st of December I am able to see in the IRCC Secure portal that it is passed with today's date. In the Application Tracker...

Wife’s medical results have been received and marked as completed as of today.
