Dear Strength23,

Thank you! Do not worry. Our processing time is still not yet way passed. As your MP said 9 months is an approximate time. Hopefully you will definitely get final decision before the Medical is done; if it did not you just have to re-do the medical.
I read somewhere Security usually takes between 2-5 months
I deleted my inbox! Thank you for letting me know.

Goodluck

Hey
I don't think that security check will take 2 to 5 months due to some people submitted their application in November and got their visa in January Every case is different

I sent an email to the minister as well yesterday Minister@cic.gc.ca addressed at Honorable Ahmed D. Hussen MP. He is a new minister who has recently replaced Minister John McCallum. I got an auto reply saying they are extremely busy and that they will not respond certain emails. I don't hope I will get any reply. The minister office address is 365 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 1L1. If I was in Ottawa I would go. Manitobagirl you are like me and you cannot stay quite. How much did you have to pay for the lawyer?

My lawyer is working on the case, after he gets some answers then he will tell me the price. This is about human life's it's not supposed to be like this.All this automated systems, just to brush you off.And like you said, if i knew that security check will take forever, i would have plan to stay with my husband. And why not issues visitor visa's for spouses while your application is in process? I guess then VO wouldn't have a job, to determined whether your relationship is real or fake ;).

This e-cas is so useless. Why even bodder. They just created the system to make you feel better. And i am looking after refugees that did not contribute a cent to Revenue Canada,and not sure what security they pass. They just run away from Mr. Trump :). And this is where my tax dollar goes. I am tired of being polite and patient.

Hi friends,
I can’t figure out this issue that Ankara VO is busy for refugees!!!. I guess refugee and family sponsorship are belonged to different categories and so two separated departments!!! So how unfair would be if we must stick in this stage because they are so busy!!! And again I’m wondering if it is true why there are some applications have been finalized in Ankara around 3 months.
I am going to lose my patient and hope as my background check is in process since mid December. :mad:

Looool at least you know that your security check is in process, I don't even know that, I don't see any changes since August 16th ‍♀♀♀Also they have different sections for refugees, it has nothing to do with spouse sponsership, I hope we all get a good news soon

For Husband's sponsorship I have not seen anyone except Aylar on this forum who got the PR since May. All other 3-4 months cases were wives.

Agreed! It seems way faster for wives...
However, I could see why, men tend to have military experience, and for some reason VO pays more attention to their criminality/security more than to women which is totally unfair and discriminative :(

None of us can stop thinking about it that's why we all check this forum couple of times. I hope we get some news by end of March.

No news today...but our time will come for sure! I'm praying and checking my e-mail every day! Yes, patience is golden but sometimes it's just emotionally hard...
It's been almost 3 months since my husband's interview, there must be something this week!

Lets pray our husbands will arrive this month :)
