    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    I was told I was approved on Dec 2nd. I received the PPR (requested email copy/US-Ottawa) on Dec 7th, scanned and sent the next day. I finally received my COPR paperwork Dec. 28. Man that was a long 3 weeks :P

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    Just received my COPR paperwork in the mail yesterday. W00! :) Was starting to rip my hair out waiting for it. Hoping to swing by the border after the New Year! Should it be fairly quick and easy? I know I'll have to make a list of goods accompanying and items to follow. Anything else that...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    Thank you! And yep, that's what you would probably want to do also. Here's how it went down. I called and spoke to one of the agents and they asked that I just scan and digitally submit the FBI Clearance letter. When my application had arrived in Ottawa and if they required the original copy...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    Just called to speak to an agent this morning to verify that they received our RPF and FBI clearance and they said our application was approved as of Dec 2nd!!!! :D ECAS shows decision made, with no further details and MyCIC has yet to be updated from background check in progress. Apparently...

    K just got off the line. The friendly agent was able to confirm that she was approved as of Monday and that the draft was in the process, and not quite ready to be sent out yet so that's a HUGGEEE relief. Ottawa here we come! :D

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    We did. And in fact we had our application sent back to us because I was lacking a use of a representative form indicating my wife as our representative. But yes, so far shes been the only one to have received that one email. Been checking MyCiC and ecas almost day but no changes since then. On...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    As in a physical letter in the mail? We have not received anything. Only correspondence was the email stating that the application was received. And app is from US. Just moved back from states though so was only able to provide letter from employer and 4-5 months worth of pay stubs. Wonder if...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    Hmmm...are there quite a few people still awaiting the SA email? My wife (the sponsor) hasn't received anything other than the email stating the application has been received. Her ecas does say it's in process and we haven't been able to link the app to her account. What's weird is that I've...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    To be honest, I have no idea but I'd like to think that it's at least moving forward if you received an application number. Were you able to check the application status using that number and your personal info? As for getting the whole packet back, it wasn't so bad in hindsight (other than...

    ***JULY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS***

    Late to this party but my wife received the first AOR I suppose, on 8/19. After initially returning our packet to us (major bummer :(), and us sending it back to them they finally have us in the system as of 7/21. Hooray! ;D BTW, I received my police clearance after having sent the application...

    Returned packet???

    Don't get discouraged EKate. It all takes time and if they need something they'll always correspond with you in one way or another. For some of us, that just happens to be our packet making an impromptu return visit ::). Hang in there! I'm right in that boat with you!

    Returned packet???

    What I get for being brutally honest and thorough. ::)

    Returned packet???

    I packaged her up and sent it out via FedEx on June 20. It was date stamped as Received on June 24. It then found its way back to me, unfortunately yesterday. @PandaChan God only knows, and I don't blame you for being paranoid. I'm glad you clarified that. It's a typical "hope for the best, but...

    Returned packet???

    Oh I highly recommend it, may be my new hobby. ;D I really should have known better though. @Sous2 Thank you! Best of luck with you as well

    Returned packet???

    OK! So I stubbornly called the call centre back and reached another rep. This one was able to actually "open" my case and found an issue. Hallelujah! Apparently, in my portion of the Application (IMM0008) I have my wife's address, which is where I am at the moment, as the mailing address for...

    Returned packet???

    @TANMEX Currently scouring the guide and our whole packet. Essentially threw everything at them that I could think of in terms of relationship evidence. @AladdinsGirl I'm so green, to be honest I don't know what or if I had gotten an AOR1. As of the moment, there's been no correspondence other...

    Returned packet???

    So I got through when I called this morning, but I wasn't able to get anything out of the call agent. She said that this was the first time she had ever heard of a packet being returned without an accompanying letter. Great! I asked about the additional $490 and was told that that didn't need...
