I sent off the package on April 20 and heard back on the 21 it was opened by the family sponsorship team. Question my husband is in the states and submitting his paperwork for the FBI report. On their website it told us it can take 3 months! Is this actually true? I just read on here some people only had to wait 3-5 business days? (He has no rap sheet)
If your husband is a US citizen he can go through an approved channeler and get his FBI summary request back in no time. Some have gotten their results back in less than 24 hours.

That's normal, they don't go in order because they have more than one person working and have multiple piles because of that.

Waiting for the day she will be with me forever
And our parents don't know about our marriage

I read in a thread that it is a negative impact on them if parents don't know about marriage or they are against you being together
What are the chances of getting approval?

I believe as long as you are in a legal age to get married you have nothing to worry if everyone is against to your marriage. U just have to get a strong prof that your marriage is legal and not arrange marriage

With all due respect, I really don't think these things were easy to avoid. You might know about these things from reading this forum (which I do too, but only after submitting my application) but neither item is addressed in any of the checklists or guides. Obviously I know now how to fix both issues, but people get their applications sent back for these reasons every day. These are the most common mistakes because there is no instruction given in regards to either. 2015 is the most recent taxation year until April 30th.
You are absolutely right about the lack of instructions.

Even when my application was returned, they simply highlighted sections on the checklist but they did't really mention what was wrong with it. I had submitted by package in March containing my 2015 NOA. But under section 5 of the check list (Employment/Source of Support) they had simply highlighted "Notice of Assessment" and "personal tax information".

As such I'm not really sure if its because the the NOA is outdated or because I need to send additional personal tax information (and what kind of personal information)?

So now I'm giving them my 2016 NOA and my Option C form. The person checking these forms should at least take a minute to write down what was wrong (not just highlight).

. Other proof that your relationship is recognized by your friends and/or family (e.g. Letters, social media information showing a

From the 6 points/options, you will need to choose 3 and submit one document for each of the 3 that you have selected.

For example: 1 document for Joint Ownership + 1 document for Proof of joint utilities + 1 document for proof of financial support.
