***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

[mmahedihasan]

Should my wife get her medical done after getting the AOR 1 using the application number?
Or we should wait till we get our medical request after the sponsorship approval?

Please advice!

If your spouse has received the email but the upload has not been enabled:

Step 1: Call CIC and report the technical issue. They will direct you to do Step 2. Please do step 2 only after calling and confirming with cic as they can resolve the upload issue.
Step 2 to send Schedule A + PCC to CIC:
Upload physically signed copy of Schedule A + PCC via IRCC Webform (one of my friends uploaded electronically signed, CIC asked them to upload a physically signed one)
Step 3: Send a physical copy to CPC-Mississauga (this is done as IRCC Webform has a huge backlog)

For sending the physical copy via courier:
1) Cover letter explaining the whole scenario
2) On the envelope - state the following:
Applicant Name
Application #
Family Class - Spouse Outside Canada
3) Mailing Address:
Case Processing Centre – Mississauga
2 Robert Speck Parkway, Suite 300
Mississauga, ON
L4Z 1H8

So you're telling me I can call a member of parliament to discuss issues with my spousal sponsorship application? How do you even find their number?

You email their office. Of course it's not the MP himself replying, but their assistant.

Search for your region's/town's MP. There will be an email provided to contact them. In our case we found an email to Stouffville MP and emailed the office.

If you read my posts, we tried calling multiple times. Always got hanged up on "due to high number of callers". Also submitted an online form enquiry. No reply other than an automatic reply with no answers to our questions. So yes, I was actually advised by another user on this forum to contact our MP.

got it. I didnt have time to go through your posts and thats why I asked you why did you choose this way at first place. Anyway that is great that you have good news. Hopefully everything goes smooth for you further.

Hey guys, since I didnt receive any request to upload Schedule A after waiting for more than 2 weeks, I decided to mail Schedule A and PCC together to CIC. Mailed out yesterday and they received it today. In addition I also sent both documents through the IRCC webform so hopefully now they attach it to our application and it gets transferred to the appropriate VO. For those who have gone through the same process, how long does it generally take them to attach it to the application?

For us it took 3 business days after we mailed

Also in general for Schedule A etc you don't get notification that they attached anything you won't get an updated line in ecas or anything like that..I just happened to get through on the phone and they told me
