    Conjugal Sponsorship (Same Sex)

    Unfortunately you won't be able to. The requirements of being a sponsor state that you have to have been a Canadian PR for at least 5 years. You can read the full eligibility criteria at CIC's website here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse-apply-who.asp

    I've been wondering the same thing, hopefully someone can chime in.

    FEBRUARY 2015 OUTLAND

    I was given a piece of paper with my info/picture and an e-medical barcode that CIC can use to access the results, that's what I sent in! I have no idea what the actual "results" of my exam are. FBI wait is 12-14 *weeks* right now. Crazy, right? I'm like 5 weeks in....

    Congrats to those of you just getting SA!! I find this to be one of the more frustrating parts of the process so far. After the app is transferred to your VO, this is the longest stretch we go without hearing anything. I sent in my e-medical but who knows when ECAS will ever update to reflect...

    Funds available for stay question

    I would not put $0 as your funds!!! That will not look good to CIC. I believe what I did was provide a letter of employment from my boyfriend stating his hours and salary. I did provide a screenshot of the money he has in his bank account but I think I would have been okay without that. The...

    Is US processed in Ottawa still?

    Yep, they are. I applied in February (US citizen) and mine was transferred to Ottawa.

    What do you guys mean by receipt? I was only given the E-Medical form and a tiny handwritten receipt saying how much I paid them.

    Thanks for the help! So even though the test results probably haven't came in yet, I should still send the emedical?

    Hey all, question for you: I'm a Feb 6 applicant; already have SA and file has been transferred to Ottawa. I got my medical done this past Monday and have the E-Medical form. The doctor said they'd forward my stuff to CIC within 10-14 days. Is there anything I need to do with this e-medical...

    Congrats those of you with AOR2! Will ECAS update with that or no? I probably won't see one for a while (if I get one at all) because I'm getting all correspondence by snail mail. Also I'm getting my medical done this afternoon!! Any tips on what to expect?

    It took me 7 days to receive the letter they sent me, and I live in Mississauga -_- So definitely remain patient; it'll make its way to you eventually.

    Omg, how did that happen? :( Did you track your application when you sent it? So sorry to hear that... I can imagine how awful that must be for you.

    Question about late medical/police checks

    Okay that's good to know! I have an appointment for the medical exams on Monday so at least that'll be sent in relatively soon. What would I even hear next from Ottawa? Is that what AOR2 is? Documents requests?

    Question about late medical/police checks

    Hi all! I did not do my medical and FBI checks upfront as I was really strapped for time to get my app in. I now have notification of sponsor approval and my application has been forwarded to CPC-Ottawa. I just mailed out my fingerprints to the FBI about a week ago (so I know I can expect around...

    Got my SA letter today :) It's dated April 10th, so technically I've had it for a week. (I'm a Feb 5th applicant) Congrats to everyone else who got it already, and good luck to those waiting.
