    ***DECEMBER 2017***OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    Just looking at the difference between the online tool and our GCKey account and the two different statuses boggle the mind. The online tool shows Application Received for the Permanent Residence Application Status and In Process for the Sponsorship Application Status. But the GCKey info...

    Yeah I know. I was looking at the February 2018 outland thread and peeps are farther along than I am. I'm pulling my hair out. Yeah, GCKey still shows in progress. Keep up the faith!

    ***DECEMBER 2017***OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    I called last night and the voice prompts said that "the eligibility of your application has not yet begun" in addition to a bunch of other updates regarding it (i.e. background info received, medical not required, etc., etc). Considering I'm calling from Australia, sitting on hold can be rather...

    ***DECEMBER 2017***OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    Listen, this is just a bit of a whinge more than anything. I don't get it though...how/why are applications received by the CIC office in Mississauga being processed quicker than, say, ours? I just....don't get it. It's a bit frustrating seeing outland apps received in January/February 2018...

Considering the amount of time between now and when we arrive, and...

    Job starts in June but residency is still being processed

    Thanks for that...but, alas, another dead end :( "To send a request you must be a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident of Canada or an individual or corporation currently in Canada." Ah well, maybe I'll call the CIC-M office tonight local time for me in Australia.

    Job starts in June but residency is still being processed

    Hey YVR123 - thanks for the info. I've honestly never heard of GCMS notes but have since done a bit of reading of them on these forums. How do I order them? Is it a normal thing to do (i.e. asking for them)?
