    December 2022 inland spousal sponsorship

    It took a bit over 2 weeks for them to tell us that they rejected the photo. We uploaded a new one 24hrs later only for them to send us a PR card of the photo they rejected. We got the PR Card and it still said in review. I never bothered checking when they changed it once we got the PR card...

    Here I thought we're almost out of the woods. On my Husband's eCOPR, they got my name (Sponsor's name) wrong. They still entered the name I used when I landed (previous marriage name) back in 2012. UCI # and all other info are correct. Before we applied for sponsorship, I had my name changed...

    We just used same photo as we sent with the application. They also allow photos taken with phone as long as it has white background and no shadow. They will give you instructions once you're at the portal to upload photo. There are options: - digital - scanned image of photo taken...

    I don't know the exact form or IMM document # -- it's the one to change condition or extend stay as visitor. You'll need to upload passport, photo and financial statements (bank account to support the stay)

    I am not sure what you should do about this situation. We applied for visitor extension for my husband on December 6, 2022. And he got a visitor record before the end of the year. It was quite fast. His 6 months stay would have expired January 30, 2023. They gave him a VR which expires Dec 2023.

    We were not able to create an account on the PR tracker til a few days ago. We already got the invite to the Portal and had submitted the declaration even before we got to see what the tracker was all about. Once we were able to log on the tracker, we saw the timeline what not. If we compare...

    The tracker really is frustrating. Although it's quite pointless now for us to use the tracker, I was still curious about it. I (sponsor)can't set up an account. But my hubby (PA) was able to. We're just waiting for the ECOPR now and even that is not updated on his tracker account. GCkey...

    We paid for the Spousal Open Work Permit with the application and we never applied for it for how quick the process went. Which we are really thankful for. I got a refund on my credit card for the SOWP we paid for. I'm glad I don't have to process any refund.

    I am not quite sure if there is. The requirements are straighy forward anyway. For them to send you the invite to Confirm for the portal you just have to reply to the email they sent with the email address you are using for the portal, name, UCI, Application #, etc. Then when you get the...

    We are also debating as well with regards to the Work Permit as I have also heard the same that ECOPR takes a while. Hopefully things keep moving forward for all of us.

    We received an email to confirm email address and all necessary info so they can send us a Portal invite for virtual landing I suppose. It was from Calgary office. We received the Pre Arrival letter thru GCKey.
