Submitted my spouse documents in February with upfront medical report. I have not heard anything from ircc yet. I think the timeline varies from case to case.
Adding Spouse after AOR
- Thread starter Ramella
- Start date
I have submitted spouse documents in Feb, 2023. Not heard anything from Ircc yet. It is very difficult to predict timelines
They are taking around 1.5 month to revert your webform query. If you submit all the docs upfront, they might send you an ADR after webform reply.
Else it can take 3 months for get an ADR to upload docs on GC key.
I recieved biometrics request for my spouse. What happens next and how long will it take to get a passport request?
Next is just PPR (there is a chance to receive ADR if IRCC requires more information). In my case, we received passport request after 30 days.
Hoping the same or early results for you.
Thank you.
Spouse medical request has also been received. We did it upfront in march. Can we upload the same or do we need to retake his medical tests?
I received a re-medical test for the primary applicant in March, this year and I also got my spouse upfront medical done. My spouse's medical was not asked then, so I did not upload it. Now I have received the request to upload my spouse's medical. Can I upload the same? do I need to go in for a fresh medical for my spouse? I have raised a web form but I have not received a reply yet. Please help.
Hi, my agent said the same thing that if an applicant wants to add spouse then the points will be recalculated.
The above answer doesnot clarify if it is recalculated or not.
Could you please share your experience? It would be really helpful.
My biometrics and medical is already done and I have been waiting for over a year now and still no notification from the Canadian High Commission.
Hi folks,
Please share your expert advise.
AOR Received: Feb 6, 2024.
In-land CEC STEM Draw Application.
Planning to get married as I want my soon to be wife to be a Canadian PR alongside with me.
CEC STEM Draw cutoff: 482
My Fiance is back in the home country & not here.
R1 & R2 still pending. What should be the best time to get married?
If I add my spouse after R1 & R2 check, does my scores will get recalculated?
Do I bare the risk of adding her to my file?

Thank You so much @AishB. I see some reference down here, can you confirm if you applied for same ? Can you share your experience in to this process?
What was your case in particular? Did your score dropped by any chance but remained above the ITA range or it didn’t affected anyway?
Was your spouse present in canada or was situated in back home/other country?
Also, what was your complete timeline if you can share? Would be very much helpful. Thanks!
You can view my immigration timeline in my signature.
We were engaged at the time of ITA but married post AOR. I added my spouse to the application post marriage and AOR, which does not recalculate your CRS - no need of IELTS or spousal points. Your CRS remains the same!
We were both outland and having spouse inland or outland has no bearing on the process of adding your spouse to your application post marriage.
