    I renovated the house last year. Ripped out all the carpets in the house and laid lamenated flooring everywhere. Build a deck that circumferenced the house and found a married couple to maintain the house (rent free) until my wife and daughter lands. It's in a city I don't live but used to work in.

    No AOR yet

    6 months or 180 days is way too long. I think longest would be 60 days. Something is not right. You can submit an online form asking about your application. Go to check application processing time on CIC website. It will tell you wait their wait time is and if it's more than that there is a...

    MARCH 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    Average on CIC website for assessment of sponsor is now 36 days. Previously it said 60 days. I think March average will be well below the January average and less than 1 month.

    How I organized our applcation and a summary of all helpful tips I have learned

    I placed the barcode page last since CIC placed it last too and it printed out that order. That's incorrect because I forgot that they stated somewhere to place it on top. But when you have so much rules it's easy to forget some. For each proof I provided a brief bullet point cover page...

    Sponsorship Evaluation (IMM 5481) - Question about 12 month net income.

    I didn't notice this group so I joined the general Singapore timeline group earlier. I have a Vietnamese wife so I'll stick to this one. Did anyone read the article where Justin Trudeau plans to allow 305,000 immigrants this year? Hope this would result in a quicker decision made.
