****APRIL 2019 INLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP ****

[Neo_LC]

Got the refund for biometric fees today.
Just FYI: There is no need to apply for refund. They will automatically credit to your account. During the interview, I asked the officer how to apply for refund. She said its already in process. Just wait for few days and will be credited. In case you don't get after a week or so, then you call up them up.

Hi Sunny,

I just got my Calgary Landing Interview date confirmed. 21 Nov so 2.5wks away.
I called 1888 242 2100 and listened to the prompts then it gave me an email to email requesting the interview. I’m not sure if it was that they responded to or automatically emailed as I was approved sat and today is Monday, either way heard quickly. Not sure why yours hasn’t been locked in, you should follow up. Goodluck!

I had a lawyer process my applications, however I sent the email/ and called for the landing interview. You just need your UCI and application number which your lawyer should have sent you letters from IRCC with it on it.

Good for you.
The credit card I used to pay for the fees has expired. I contacted them through webform and they finally sent me an email telling me that they sent me a letter on Oct 10th. However, I have not received anything from them... I don’t know if I should wait a little longer or contact them again..

Hi guys,
I got my new SIN last week. Service Canada told me to call CRA to update the information. I contacted CRA, but the agent told me I don’t have to call because their systems are linked together.
Can someone tell me if this is true?

May be wait until end of this week. If you don't hear back, follow up again.

Happy Monday Everyone !!
Not sure why is it taking so long for some of you. I guess everyone is into holiday mood now
Anyways, just hope and pray everything will go smoothly. And, like I said before - if the wait is long that means something good going to come. Be patient and hang in there.

Just though to share. They are working really hard...… and improving their service
