Hello, If you don't mind I have 2 questions. 1. Why did they ask you for "ADR - Feb 25, 2022 (imm5669)"? 2. How did you came to know that spouse has been added? Thanks
Hello,
1) I had a 1 year gap in personal history question of imm5669.
2) When my spouse documents were received, she was added as a dependent under the principal applicant information section of my online account. If you don't have a dependent you cannot see this part. It's like the image in this post, under the Applicant Information there is a blue hyperlink named "View dependents".
Thank you so much for your detailed answers. I also got married after AOR and we are in the process of adding spouse in the application. With spouse documents did you attached any letter of explanation and along with marriage certificate did they asked you for any other documents in regards to proof of relationship?. Thanks.

How much time does it get for ECoPR after AOR? Biometrics have been submitted, Medical passed. Whats next?
No set time limit for processing...
Background check is pending and eligibility... background check has 3 steps... criminality,info Sharing and security screening and then eligibility.
Sequence of approval varies case to case for these background steps.
If these are done then you can take a sigh of relief for time being(until you receive PR card)
Else keep Patience as most of us are trying to do.

Thanks for sharing this.
"we lost a lot of our horsepower as a department." They think of their own staff as a horsepower , no wonder they're treating us like this.
"On the resources side, we’ve added 500 more staff.” He also pointed out the additional $85 million and another $385 million allocated in recent federal budget announcements that will go towards improving application processing"
I cannot believe these numbers, these are the processing fee, right of permanent residency fee and others fees, and taxes that we paid, yet they hired only 500 more staff (to solve a 2M backlog problem)
"The number one policy is our Immigration Levels Plan. We’re not going to chip away at the number of cases in the inventory if we don’t expand the numbers"
Of course it is, immigrants are just a number for you to report and show off.
"Work permits have almost 250% increased compared to last year"
Of course it will, when you blindly just say we need xxxx amount of immigrants in Canada that means you'll get more people within the Immigration system lol
Wish they improve the processing time and start working on our files.
WOW..you are awesome, it will really help & prepare me in advance
1. You only updated your "Schedule A" just to current your personal history not to add any spouse details in it & for your spouse you submitted a new form right.
2. In "Supplementary Information Your Travels" you updated the form being as a principal applicant with spouse details or you summitted a new seperate form for your spouse ?
