    I think you need to apply under access to information act based on this note: Note: If you are submitting a request under the Privacy Act for information belonging to someone else, the individual to whom the information belongs must also be a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident of Canada or...

    So, just to clarify, you can request to have information about your spouse's application, even though they are not yet a citizen/PR of Canada. So if I'm the sponsor, I can request information on my spouse's application? Did you request under the "privacy act" or "access to information act"...

    I hope so, although it says "IRCC has increased the number of decision makers on spousal applications in Canada" so not sure if it would impact us in any way. Let's see...

    Anyone contacted the embassy via the web form after the 12-month period was up? If so, what did they say? It's been over 13 months for our application, so I'm thinking it's time to follow up.

    I know a few people here who've applied over a year ago and haven't heard back (myself included). Once you pass the 12-month average waiting time, it gives you an option on mycic to fill out a web form and request an update. In the web form you choose which visa office you want to contact. So...

    It should have worked with 2. Category: Permanent Residence Sub-category: Family Class (Spouses) Try different combination of options for "Application details". Application # and UCI should usually work. The rest should be pretty straightforward.

    Have either of you created an online account and linked the application to it? It should say when you passed your medical exam. You can also try logging into online services to check your application status. But to answer your question, it's not normal, but unfortunately it's how it's been...

    Lol, I'm not really sure what a pre-arrival letter is tbh, but I'm guessing not. The last "activity" I noticed before this was the medical approval back in October. Are you also in currently in the states?

    Hey everyone, Our application was received in July 2019. Last week, I got an email from the embassy in Ankara asking for 1) evidence of our immigration status in the US and 2) "Evidence the sponsor has provided notice to his US employer of intent to resign with evidence from employer his...
