My app was transferred on the fourth month and still took 4 days over the 12 months to have DM :/

Oh yes I could see that. When I was searching about the process I was seeing a lot of people getting it done in 3 months and I always thought we would be the same since we didn’t have any red flags

I see so many couples living apart, it makes me wonder was there no other option for you and your partner to live together? The Canadian partner couldn’t live in your country?

My theory is that you get moved to Mississauga even if you are from a non-visa exempt country if your relationship is unquestionably genuine, like if you have been married for more than 10 years or if you were married to your sponsor before they got their permanent residency. Because I have seen...

Ugh. I really hate this current system. Honestly the processing time could be cut much shorter if they interviewed everyone in the beginning of the process, instead of trying to figure out if a relationship is real based on pictures. Just: *starts background check* --> *send medical request* -->...

Gees what was your last update?

Or people who get it in like 2 months. I really hope those cases are because they were either married for 10 years or married before the sponsor got their permanent residency. If its just regular cases like ours then it's just extremely unfair!

I honestly think its just so VFS can keep getting free money without much work

Weird, I don't understand why they sometimes wait so long to file transfer

Man what a waste of time. There is a Canadian embassy right here in Detroit, I could have gone there myself to ask for that stamp lol

Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get your passport back after you send it? Just trying to get an idea. Also, what does the VFS actually do? Are they the ones that stamp your passport?

Idk, I went months without hearing anything from them, then when I started sending them one webform per week I got pre arrival very soon after. Could have been a coincidence, or maybe they just got tired of answering to me lol

Thanks everyone for the kind messages! I just returned from sending my passport so the wait for the last step begins. Hopefully we will have COPR soon!

Hey you guys I just got PPR rn. Here's two questions: 1) What VAC fees do I need to pay? 2) Husband and I currently live in the US. However the letter is asking for us to provide the Canadian address we intend to live in. But we don't have that yet, as we will be looking for a place to live. Do...

We received Pre-arrival and DM within the past two weeks. Yours is coming soon! Mexico usually leaves everything close to the 12 months mark

I know exactly how you feel. When you go so many months without hearing anything from CIC, any message can be reassuring. Hell, I went almost 7 months without hearing anything and then got pre-arrival just to hear some say "oh but hold your breath, this still doesn't mean anything." And you will...

That's true. I just really hope she won't regret it. I'm just talking from a lifetime of seeing couples being on and off, on and off. If it's something like cheating then for sure go ahead. But if it's like "Oh I don't like how you treat my mom" then I would say wait. Hell I almost left my...

Please be 110% sure you want to do this. All couples have fights that make us think we don't want to be together anymore. This is a tough and long process for you to cancel and then decide to apply again in a month or so when you guys are fine again

Can somebody explain to me why they don't send passport request as soon as a decision has been made? What do they wait for?

It has been a crazy ride. Hopefully we can be in Canada by Christmas time (: Canada PR (Spouse sponsorship - Outland) September 25 - Application sent Oct 4 - Application received January 7 - USA police certificate request January 10 - Aor January 29 - Sponsor Approval February 1 -...
