Hi Hardcookie we are both in the March submission group! I'm the sponsor I live in Regina SK too :) My fiance is moving here solely to be with me. He would have preferred we moved to the US but I have a career here and in the US he doesn't make enough to sponsor me since most of his income is...

We are still waiting for DM through the Ottawa office but we had document issues, just got SA a couple weeks ago. Thanks for letting us know how long you waited for the COPR documents. I've been waiting to see the DM but that is obviously not going to be the end of the waiting...

Thank you Hardcookie and Pari it makes me feel better to hear you guys say that :)

Hi fellow March people, I finally got SA last week after wasting 2+ months over a stupid form. So the part that should have been the easiest took 5 months! But our file is now on its way to the Ottawa visa office so hopefully things go more smoothly from this point on. :)

Both requests for additional information I got from CIC came in the mail and both took about a week to get from ON to SK. It does seem a little long if you haven't received a letter yet. They do seem to understand how long it takes for you to get their request and send it back to them. The...

Yikes that is exactly what I did. I sent them images of their own instructions telling me I didn't need to send in form imm5409! I would have just sent it in but I received the request just as I came back from visiting him and we weren't sure how to have it notarized by the same person as the...

CIC requested we send them form IMM5409, Statutory Declaration of Common-Law. All their letter states is that we must send the signed and completed form bearing original signatures and the deadline for the form. Do I send it to the same place I sent in our original application? Or is there...

Thanks so much for your response. I wound up calling the help line and their suggestion was to respond using the online form and attach their own documentation showing that the form wasn't needed. Fingers crossed they accept it. I haven't even heard that I've gotten SA yet so I'm so confused...

I am so upset. I just got back from visiting with my spouse (common law, I'm the sponsor). We submitted our application for spousal sponsorship in March and have been waiting to hear back. I checked my mail and there was a letter from CIC and I got all excited and instead it was a letter...

Yes I am the sponsor. I've tried everything to log in. My UCI number and my application number (both were on the email CIC sent me telling me they received my application). I hadn't thought of the receipt number so I just tried it now and nothing. Thank you for the suggestion. I'll keep...

We are at 69 days today. It wouldn't be so frustrating if I could at least log on to ECAS as myself (the sponsor) and see SOMETHING. My husband's side just says Application Received. Question, would his ECAS show SA or only mine?

I'm in the same boat as you. Application received March 23rd and nothing else. I still am not even showing up in the ECAS system at all. I finally got the idea to use my husband's UCI from when he got a permit to study here and finally was able to look up our status under his information. I...

I would apply for the FBI criminal record check asap. I don't know about anyone else but they took 5 months to get back to my Husband and he had only lived in a handful of places and had no criminal record.

Hello other March people! I'm trying to find out why I can't get any information from the online system (ECAS I think?). Just a quick background my Common-Law Husband is from the US. We submitted our outland application in March. So far all I've received is an email on May 11th. It is an...

I have a question about applying as Common Law. My fiance is from the US. We lived together in Canada for 1.5 yrs while he went to school. He could not find a job so this past January he went back to the US. I didn't realize at the time we could apply as common law. We are engaged however we...

Hi all I'm having trouble with the forum not letting me add a topic. Hoping if I comment on here it will.
