Likely medical or biometric request.

If your application has passed the 12 month mark and the VO isn't responding to you, you can request that your MP make an inquiry on your behalf. It doesnt impact the file, but VOs are often more responsive with providing status updates when they come from an MP. But only approach the MP if...

Once you find out who the MP is in your area you can call the office to make an appointment. You likely won't need to bring any documentation with you since you're only requesting that they make an inquiry on your behalf, but confirm with them before you go. You can search your area to find...

If the document itself is in English, you dont need to translate the real estate company's business stamp. CIC wont care about what realtor you used to find your rental, the address proof is what they're looking for. If you'd like more peace of mind, you can certainly translate the stamp if...

My timeline is in my signature. :)

1, 2, and 3: If you have an english version of your rental agreements, then just provide copies of those. You only need to have them translated if you dont have an english copy, in which case you would provide a copy in the original language together with the translated copy, the translator will...

No, dont include them. There is no income requirement for spousal sponsorship, so you cant be denied on this basis.

When you check your ecas, the date they started working on your file will be updated, that is what is considered AOR2. Mine didnt change when my file was transferred to Mississauga, but it did update once the file was transferred from Mississauga to New Delhi. It now shows the date NDVO started...

It depends on the situation. It isnt that they only call to check one thing, they can call you to verify anything in your application. Likely because it's faster than other correspondence.

I've seen a few people comment that they are getting phone calls lately, so I don't think it's that unusual. My application was also transferred from Mississauga to New Delhi in April. Everyone I have asked advised that it would be 3-5 months before I hear from them. I haven't received any...

You're getting very close to the one year mark, so should hear from them shortly. If you pass the 12 month mark, send an email or Web Inquiry to the Delhi office.

The standard response is 12 months. No one here can give you a guarantee that your application will take a specific amount of time, but IRCC does try to complete most applications within that timeline. Could be less or more, who can say?

It seems like you keep asking the same question in multiple locations. Every application is unique, and it is a lengthy process. There are a number of possibilities, maybe they will request documents, an interview, passport request, no one here can really say or guarantee what will happen next...

I literally followed the checklist. I used it as a kind of index to follow and then just added all photos at the back. There isnt really a prescribed way of putting the package together as long as you have everything they're asking for that's all that's required. Any additional documents that...

No, I didnt need to because our file was transferred to NDVO in April.

I've also passed the 6 month mark and havent gotten that update. :/

Sorry, I didnt take any pictures of my application but I just organized everything in order of the checklist, I included originals together with the translated copy. I put it all together in one big fedex envelope. It didnt get sent back to us for corrections or anything. Hope that helps.

It's where you can check the status of your application, once you receive your acknowledgement of receipt: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do
