Congratulations!! Glad the wait is over for you!

I had to wait 20 months. 17 is for 80 percent of cases. Some take longer, some shorter. When I first applied the wait time was 11 months.

The letter simply states that they confirm that they got the documents: passport, photos, right of PR fees, police report, schedule A, additional family information and proof of medical. They also got the email that you sent them on April 2. They will not look at your file now until after the...

Hi, I hope you were not ripped off! It sounds like you might have given your money to a scammer. You should check the "better business bureau of canada". They can tell you if the business you are dealing with is legitimate or not. Sorry I don't know anything else that could help you. Good luck!

Thanks Awesomeg we are thrilled that it is nearing the end. If you don't already have your MP working on your case, you should start to get him/her involved now. If it weren't for our MP, my husband's file might still be sitting in the "queue for review" where it was for ten months. Our MP...

Just wondering if anyone had any updates? My husband finally got a DM today!!! It's been 20 months in Manila. So glad it's almost over.

Hi, my husband finally got DM status in ECAS today! We have waited since July 2013. It's been in Manila for 20 months! Good luck to everyone! I hope you don't have to wait as long as we did.

Re: SPOUSE / FAMILY CLASS timeline MANILA Visa Office/Appln since October 2013 Hi I'm glad to hear your application is moving. I am also still waiting for my husband's application to be approved. We applied in July of 2013. He got a re-medical request about a month ago and still no word yet...

Hi, my husband did his re-med but there has been no change in e-cas about the new medical results. It still says "Medical results have been received". And that has been there since even before his application went to "in process". I don't know if they will update it. I am just crossing my...

Hi, It wasn't that he wasn't able to get a criminal record check from the country (USA) but in his country specific application form (Japan specific instructions), it did not mention that he needed a criminal record check from EVERY country that he has lived in so he did not initially include it...

Hey just wanted to let you know that some people get processed in 3 months and some people take more than two years. I thought my husband's case would be a straight forward easy case but we have already been waiting more than 20 months and just finally have gone to "in process" this month. If...

We are still waiting.... it's been over 20 months Application received July 15 2013 Sponsorship approved Aug 15 2013 Additional document request was in April 2014 Documents sent in May 2014 File put in a queue for review for 10 months Contacted local MP to see if they could help with our case...

Hi Neelzar, I wrote that I had not been paying taxes in Canada because I was considered a non-resident and therefore did not have the Option C printout. I enclosed a copy of a letter from Revenue Canada as proof of my non-residency. It basically said that I had not maintained significant ties...

Congratulations CanNZ, your application and mine seem to be following a similar timeline. We applied just a few weeks after you July 2013 and our application was sent to Manila exactly a month later. We had to send in additional documents in May and we haven't heard anything from Manila except...

Hi, I'm just wondering if any knows how long the queue in Manila takes? My husband received an additional document request back in April and the documents were sent in the beginning of May. I recently received a reply from immigration that his application is in the queue waiting for review. That...

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that my husband did that. He is from Japan and he came here to wait out the process. He came here in June. We thought we'd be done the process by now. We applied in July of 2013. We have almost passed the 14 month waiting period and now I noticed they changed...

Oh and thank you JRPW for the info about arriving as a tourist. It's very helpful. I hope my husband can come in by himself because now I decided to move ahead of him. He just bought a one year open ticket but the return date is in 6 months from when he arrives. I hope he won't need to use it!

Hi gt_65 Sorry I didn't check back here recently. Yeah they finally contacted us. I was so shocked to see an email in my inbox from manila. Anyways, they want us to send an FBI criminal record check for my husband because we didn't include it in the original application. Luckily we realized...

Hi dpgc33 It sounds like you are on a very similar timeline with us. We applied on July 15 and were accepted as sponsors Aug 15. My husband doesn't even have a UCI yet. It says his application was received but not his medicals... Hmm, we got the medicals done before we applied (they will...

Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone has had any updates? I've been looking at the spreadsheet and you can't really tell who has applied from Japan. So, I put "Japan to BC" beside my name in the destination area so you can tell that I am sponsoring my spouse from Japan and not a spouse from...
