sashali78 thanks for the reply. I saw two 'not started' sections and I see several offices listed like Manilla, Mississauga, etc. However, we are (supposedly) being processed at Ottawa. Specifically it says waiting on 1) security and 2) criminal but that the medical has been passed. I guess as...

Hi there, I have received my wife's GCMS notes. From what I can see thing are okay, her medical was good and I see the phrase "Eligibility: Recommend Passed" in some places but honestly I am not confident I am reading these notes correctly. Basically, I can see the progression of things, where...

Celandrius (and Sheps) thanks! Indeed it was the F000*** number. The receipt and UCI numbers did not work with my wife's birthdate and country but the file number finally did. I don't know why I didn't try it, I think its because it's called the "Application" on the SA letter and I didn't...

Sheps thanks for the info. Where is the file number located? I have my sponsorship approval letter with UCI, my receipt number, but I don't know her file number. Thanks

Doesn't work with my wife's information. I guess this is only for sponsors to use and/or applicants must check their status with their sponsor's info.

I've tried entering my wife's info but nothing comes up I only have the UCI from my sponsorship letter. Everything is accessed through my info it seems. I guess the applicant themselves isn't meant to use the service?

If I check "Permanent Residence Outside Canada", on the next screen there is no spousal option. All the spousal options seem to be from the Sponsorship option only.

I'm just copy-pasting from another post of mine, I got my Option C easily here is my experience. The LAST year you were in Canada (and subsequent years) where you earned CDN income and you received T4's, you must file for these years if you haven't done so already. Investment income, interest...

Hi, really basic question here. When I search for our file status online I always start from "Which category did you apply for" and then click "Sponsorship" and use my (sponsor's) info to log-in. I answer the questions, put in the UCI number and I can see that the application was received on...

If you open and close the file sometimes the fill-in function stops working. You basically have to fill it out in one go. Also, re-check your above choices, if you didn't click something above then the menus below will not become active sometimes. I would try to fill in the form again. But if...

The earlier you file the less time it will take overall, but I do not know how long they will take to process your tax return. However, as soon as you receive notice that your taxes are in order you should be able to call immediately and have an Option C sent because everything will already be...

chris1302: First off my original comment was directed at OP, not you. I have no interest in your personal situation whatsoever. Second, the difference is that if he has just come to Canada anew, is not a citizen, etc. and has only been here 8 months then CRA's comments can be interpreted as...

Hello, You need to find out what years you need to file for. You say you have been in Canada 8 months, this means previously you were not in Canada. Did you just come to Canada yourself on PR? Are you a Canadian citizen? It sounds like you were told, "You have only been in Canada 8 months...

First priority should be to get her passport. There could be various reasons, i.e. wanting to travel to Canada, wanting to ensure she has Canadian-issued ID, because she has a child, etc. This shouldn't be a problem. After that, I am not an expert but I think one of the big things they look at...

It says you have to email them with all new information updates but I agree I don't think anyone is looking at your job updates, maybe just that you have a job. It takes them a lot of time to reply though. I sent in an update for our phone numbers and my new job, but on an email I received later...

Hi, If you are satisfied with that answer (and as others have pointed out an Option C is not always necessary), then that is okay. I am sure getting one is tricky and many people go without. However, if you prefer to have one, are concerned about not submitting one and its potential influence...

I had the same problem as you. I lived with my wife almost the entire time we dated until we got married, 2 years, and we still live together now, so really, we rarely communicate by letter or phone and never lived apart, so there were no visits or proof of visits. We just communicate in person...

Hello, I was living overseas when I sponsored my wife and I received an Option C, mailed to me in my country of residence. You have to contact the CRA and ask for one, first of all. It is much easier to get a hold of someone by phone at CRA than CIC so just go ahead and call and whoever you...

Hi, Well I went ahead and called and got information directly. First, Awesomeg thanks for the link, it's the correct link and everything is there. I followed the link and got everything. This is how the process works, I will write it here for others who need info. First you go to the link...

Hi Awesomeg I'd just like to make sure we are on the same page here. You mentioned "right to work" but my wife has no right to work or attend school at the moment. On her visitor's permit it clearly states no working and no attending educational institutions. It also says no guaranteed...
