I see "decision made" on ECAS under the "permanent residence application status" but no other information is given and we haven't received an email yet. Does anyone know how long that might take?

I finally see "decision made" on ECAS under "permanent residence application status". Hopefully, an email is coming in the next week or so.

Hi, I filed a spousal sponsorship application in January 2019 and I have yet to get a decision. Every time I inquire about the application, the reply is that it's in security and they can't provide a timeline. I last heard from IRCC in August 2019 and that was the pre-arrival letter. I applied...

Hi, I called them today and the agent was very helpful. He said that eligibility, criminality and medical are all passed though the medical is expired. All that is remaining is security which was last updated in August 2019. That's way more than 9 months but I suspect that it may not have been...

Before covid, it took Hong Kong VO about 2 months to reply to my webform, so I think they might take longer to reply back to us. I haven't ordered GCMS, so that's something I'm gonna try to see if there is more info about the security check or some sort of a timeline for when it's due. But you...

Thank you for your reply. I did contact IRCC a few times, MP 3-4 times now (every 3 months), and even the Hong Kong VO (though no reply so far). IRCC webform response and MP both said that it's in security screen but I don't know why it's taking this long. It has been in security since around...

Congratulations to everyone who has received decisions on their applications! I am still waiting on my application since January 2019. Does anyone know if the Hong Kong office is currently working on these spousal applications or are they on pause? Thank you

Application processed in HKVO. AR in January 2019. AOR: March 2019...

Hello, another January 2019 applicant here. My spouse received his pre-arrival letter in August 2019 and no updates after that. I did see 2 ghost updates on the GCkey account on Oct 17 and 19 but no news so far. Have you guys received anything lately?

Hello, I’m sponsoring my spouse (Outland application). AR January 31, 2019 AOR March 2019 My spouse did medical (which expired in March 2020) and gave biometrics in July 2019. We received pre-arrival letter in August 2019. No news after that. I did see 2 GU (Oct 17 and 19) but no news so far.

We have been waiting for almost 21 months now. Last time we heard from ircc was more than a year ago. We got 2 ghost updates recently (Oct 17 and 19) but haven’t heard anything yet. I hope it’s good news though.

Hello, We have pretty much the same timeline: my spouse's application was received on Jan 31, 2019 and we are also still waiting. However, our application is processed at Hong Kong VO. My husband also did his medical on March 21, 2019, which expired on March 21, 2020. We haven't heard anything...

I'm January 31, 2019 applicant. Still waiting...

Be careful and read the instructions in the request carefully as some VOs do ask for travel history since the age of 18. My husband's file is in Hong Kong VO and they sent a request for his travel history since the age of 18. We had to sit down and write it all out. I'm pretty sure it's only for...

I was able to link my husband's (PA) application to my GCKEY account even though I am not his representative.

In the same boat here. Only pre-arrival, but I'm still happy with the progress.

I am sponsoring my husband under the Family class.

Hello everyone, I received the "Invitation to pre-arrival services" letter two days ago (Aug. 6). From what I have read so far, I believe this means that our relationship is genuine. I just hope they don't ask us for an interview or more documents because that will extend the process. Also...

Hi, My application said the exact same thing since I linked it way back in like March. Today, I logged in to find that it's been changed to "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check." I don't know what they're doing. I'm annoyed though...
