2012 Quebec Inland Applicants

[mdna]

I disagree. Because the sponsor being approved means AIP and that they would start processing the Part 2 for Permanent Residency which is not the case. Unless they have failed to notify me to these regards, I have not yet been approved as a sponsor, at least not by the federal.

The same applies to Vinlander, who has also already gone through with the CSQ/Undertaking step but still has not been approved as a sponsor, and thus still awaits AIP.

No.. AIP means that the sponsor is eligible to sponsor the principal applicant AND that the relationship has been considered genuine by CIC (wether an interview was required or not).

If your sponsorship application is approved, CIC will notify you by letter and invite you to continue the process by submitting an undertaking application to the MICC.

This letter is very important since it constitutes proof that your sponsorship application was submitted to and approved by CIC.


http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5289ETOC.asp

If you live in Quebec, you must first send your application to the Case Processing Centre in Vegreville (CPC-V), If your sponsorship application is approved, then CPC-V will send you a letter with instructions to download MICC’s undertaking kit, then to complete and submit it to the MICC. You must attach a copy of CPC-V’s letter to the undertaking application that you submit to the MICC.

so, according to this, you guys have been in fact approved as sponsor.

Anyway, I still disagree. Though, I would be tremendously happy to received a letter stating approval, word for word

But really this is pointless, we're just debating over someone's wording choice.

I received the AOR in february stating they received the application, when we received the CIC letter to continue with MICC it was more or less saying the same PLUS to continue with MICC.
MICC was the one stating in the letter included with the CSQ, that I was meeting the requirement for sponsorship.
So based on that, I would agree that we are accepted as sponsor but I also agree with Perkele that we still don't have "officially" AIP as the relationship can still be under scrutinity by CIC.
CIC has the last word regarding AIP and I guess it is the reason why a CSQ is more or less worthless in itself without AIP.
In Quebec we love to be distinct and it represent : "un droit de veto comme on pourrait dire...le pouvoir de refuser mais pas le pouvoir d'accepter" ;-)

If I understood correctly, she already sent out the documents in question.

Correct! I sent the documents in question and am now awaiting patiently to hear back from them. 8)

Meanwhile, we filled out an application to extend my husband's visitor status. Supposedly, we should hear back within days. : Wish us luck!!! :

Good luck!

And, if our timelines give any indications, you should be getting your UCI number quite soon

Wouldn't that be great??? Thanks for the hopeful thoughts

Hey my application was received at Vegreville on 13th June 2012 according to Canada Post, but I still haven't received a confirmation from CIC yet. Is this still in the normal kind of time?

Yep! It took me 3.5 months before I received an email saying that they got it, same for Mdna.
Also, Chickadee sent in her application in May and still no word. Don't worry, they're slow.
If they're consistent to our timelines, you should get an email in the end of September or so.

@ lyn28:

I just remembered that you had said that you hadn't submitted your medical exam when you sent your application because you were pregnant. Since it's almost your time, well your sponsor's time for AIP, I think that you can start thinking of getting the medical done ASAP to avoid any delays once your sponsor is approved. That way, when it's time for the CIC to evaluate the principal applicant (you), they'll have all the documents in order, rather than waiting for them to request them and extending the processing time.

I'm not 100% sure about how this works but I'm pretty sure that you can get them done now and the doctor's office will send them directly to Vegreville with your UCI...

Anyway, think about it
