    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    I don't think patience is the answer in this situation…you don't know his situation or where his significant other is. Many times significant others are in countries with little to no adequate healthcare, political instability and other major societal issues which may pose a real threat to...

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    I called in yesterday and they said "wait for a letter" which made me nervous (still nervous to be honest). No email and no letter thus far, we just noticed the change today.

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    So now under the sponsored person's name it says "in processing". Does this mean I have SA?

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    Ok I sent an email. Called, no answer and their hours of operation are flippin' 5 hours a day 4 days of the week, right in the middle of the day, when I am of course working :/. So ridiculous, I *need* to work right now, and I'm not allowed to ask for time off yet. Fresh out of University and...

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    No I didn't, how do I go about getting help? I'm just so frustrated as I can't even call CIC properly as I work during all of their call hours. I can sometimes cut it REALLY close in the morning and call them 8:00am but depending on how long it takes I can't always stay on the line to be...

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    I am another March 10th applicant with no SA…I am at 69 days today. The call centre basically told me to wait…no real answers. :(

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    Our application was received March 10th, received AOR1 April 5th, and still no SA. I called in on Wednesday morning and I got a grumpy call agent who said that the approximate processing time doesn't really mean anything and it could take until the end of June to receive SA. So extremely...

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    Thanks for your kind words Varadar…wishing you the same! Perhaps the "transit" bit is good news, sounds like it's on it's way somewhere, for sure. It would be wonderful to get to AOR2. I'm obsessively checking my email in the hopes of news from CIC all day. Also Deepax - that is crazy...

    Our current timeline is: March 10th - received April 4th - Started processing April 5th - AOR1 (according to eCas) So 47 days since receipt and we're still waiting for SA. I finally got through today on the main CIC line (I had called maybe 4-5 times before and the system would just hang up...

    Medical exam - outland spousal sponsorship

    Thanks guys…He is from Mauritania, so Africa. We had the entire application ready to go, basing the decision to wait on the medical from a lawyer (no longer representing us) but when I was going over the immigrant guide for Africa as well as document checklist I started panicking…seriously...

    Medical exam - outland spousal sponsorship

    I have come across conflicting information regarding the medical exam. I am sponsoring my outland spouse…We have been told he should wait until we hear back from CIC before completing the medical (so it's still valid) and I have also read that it needs to be submitted along with all other...

    Help - what fee do I pay, I'm in Canada, spouse is out of Canada

    I'm trying to pay the application fee to sponsor my spouse from outside of Canada. I am in Canada. Do I pay the fees under "Family Class" or under " Spouse and Common-Law Partner in Canada Class". The "In Canada" part is tripping me up…does that mean that the principal applicant should be...

    Can the applicant I'm sponsoring sign a scan of a document

    Ok. Both signatures will have happened in person it's just the blank last page being scanned so he can print it prior to signatures. PDFs not even opening from the CIC website directly.

    Can the applicant I'm sponsoring sign a scan of a document

    I'm currently putting together an application to sponsor my husband from Mauritania to Canada. Two of the forms, IMM0008 and IMM1344 would NOT open on any computer from my husband's side. We tried all the trouble shooting possible but frankly he does not have access to a decent computer in his...

    Can a full-time post-secondary student sponsor their spouse?

    I am currently a full-time post-secondary student. I have worked part-time throughout most of my post-secondary career (I'm in the last semester of my bachelor's right now) but have not worked in the past 6 months due to having to complete a practicum for my degree. I am sponsoring my husband...
