    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    Sorry, I don't remember it that well because that was a long time ago now, but I remember they sent us an email with the info required to get it linked. Would have been with the AOR email, I think.

    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    Yes, timeline in signature is accurate but doesn't include the three updates from today (DM on ECAS, BGC started, and pre-arrival letter). Hoping we're completely done soon so we can focus on our move! Good luck to you.

    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    Awesome! Thanks. I know pre-arrival means eligibility is passed, but since we also have DM on ECAS, should we also assume background check is finished as well?

    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    Background check changed to "in progress" (GCKey), received Pre-Arrival Services mail, and "Decision Made" on ECAS. All on the same day, 13 months in. Good sign?

    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    We passed the 12-month mark several weeks ago and still no background check started. I start working in Canada in July (I'm the Canadian sponsor) and after that point I don't know when I'll have time to return to the US to complete the move with my wife. On top of that, in just a couple of...

    **MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

    I've seen your updates in some of these threads and it's giving me some optimism. Good luck to you, hope the rest is smooth. We're 5 days behind your timeline and still waiting for background check to start.

    I haven't done it yet, so I can't speak from experience, but I've done some research and talked to CBSA/RIV agents and this is what I've gathered. Please don't take my word as any kind of authority, but hopefully it gives you a concise idea. I encourage you to check out the RIV (Registrar of...

    MARCH 2017 *OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANT*

    Good luck with that and enjoy your visit! Crossing the border is always a bit stressful. Since I've been a non-immigrant living in the US for so long, every time I cross between US and Canada (always by flight) I've always just maintained that my permanent residence is in Canada despite my...

    MARCH 2017 *OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANT*

    Thanks! Yes, calling MP is probably a good idea. I'm not even sure at this point if it's actually just slow or if they're just not updating things as they go. The thing that's concerning me is that it still says BGC hasn't started. I also like the idea of traveling separately, thank you for...

    MARCH 2017 *OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANT*

    Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it. I do realize these factors are working against us. In fact, I have actually been in the reciprocal situation in the US for the past few years (married to US citizen and living in US with non-immigrant visa). Our idea was that she could book...

    MARCH 2017 *OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANT*

    Hi all, I am a Canadian citizen sponsoring my American wife to become a Canadian PR. We currently live in the US. Timeline is in my signature. It seems like our application has been slow to progress compared to others I've seen in this forum (requesting information, linking our account, etc)...
