No updates - My app was received June 3rd, I got SA on July 29th. Still waiting, waiting, waiting, and checking ECAS every Tuesday. If I call my MP, would they possibly have an update? I hate not hearing anything :(. Sigh. I do know that I need to be more patient!

Congrats! So happy for you! I have a question.. Does the applicant ONLY receive the copr in the mail, or does the sponsor AND the applicant both receive something in the mail?

Thanks for the info. This really sucks :(

I'm in the same boat as you. My partner is American, and we had Statutory Declaration of Common Law + Passport + up-to-date mailing address, all requested on August 26th, 2014. We sent them as soon as we could, and they were received by CIC on Sept 2nd. We haven't heard anything back from CIC...

When were you told this? I really hope it's not true...

Ahhhh!!! So I just checked my partner's ecas. We had ppr and documents requested on Aug 26th. We sent in the 1 requested form and his passport ASAP - according to Canada Post, they were received on Sept 2nd. I've been checking ecas a lot - still says application received. HOWEVER... I just...

Hey y'all! Just wondering - if CIC requests documents to continue processing your app, and gives a deadline of say, 60 days - that is your "bring forward date", correct? Is it true that the VO will not re-visit your application until the "bring forward date" (aka - 60 days from when they...

Ahhh, congrats :)! Great job. All I can say is, JEALOUS!

I got bored, so I added myself to the Ottawa spreadsheet! I know it's not good to do, but still constantly checking ecas... I wish we would hear something!!! :-\ :'(

Ottawa received my partner's requested doc + passport on Sept 2nd... Still patiently waiting and checking ecas 10000 times a day! Hopefully next week there is some movement!

After looking through the Ottawa spreadsheets, this is not entirely true. Dozens of people have docs PLUS passports requested on the same day, and get COPR anywhere from 10-30 days after the docs were requested. So I guess I will just have to wait and see.

Random question... In August, Ottawa e-mailed my partner and I, saying they had completed the initial assessment of his application, and asked us for a scanned copy of his passport, and 1 missing document. We mailed those 2 things 2 days after we got the request. We thought we were almost at...

My partner and I sent our application with an expired police certificate, because we didn't want to wait for the new one. We sent the new one when it came in, and the processing of our application has not been delayed. Totally up to you, though!

Hi team! My partner and I are almost at the end of our common law application, hoping it will be approved within the next month or so. IF it does get approved and he becomes PR, would he be able to attend school in Canada WITHOUT having to pay international student fees? Thanks for any info...

Ugh! I wish it wasn't requested from my partner and myself LOL... More $$$ spent on notaries, and express mailing! Sigh ;D

Thanks for the info! I actually got the information right from the document checklist - this is what it says: 5) Original of completed Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union (IMM 5409), [u]if you have a co-signer and he or she is your common law partner. Since my partner is NOT a...

Thanks for the response. My partner replied to the e-mail. We will also call tomorrow morning to ask what's up... Bah!

Hi all, My American partner and I received an e-mail from CPC-O today, asking for a few items to continue processing our application. They are asking for: 1) A photocopy of his American passport 2) The completed IMM5409 form (Statutory declaration of common law) We are totally confused - in...

Thanks so much! Well, they said expect to finalize our application with no interview, but have the right to request one if they feel necessary. Does that mean the same thing?!

This might be so exciting! They said they have completed the initial assessment of his application, and they are waiving an interview. Does this mean we are near the end?!
