That is getting to be a longer than normal wait. Did you use a courier service when you submitted, did you get confirmation from them it was delivered? You are both in the UK?

Nothing official. I wasn't ever even told if my file went to a visa office. I found out it was at New York when I received my passport request. I did see the ECAS status change from In Process (before bio/medical)-->Application Received (after passed bio/medical)-->In Process, so I had been hoping that meant it was at a visa office and being worked on.
Yes that means N VO received your application and started working on it. But I haven't seen anything of this sort.
DM and PPR received today.
Does anyone know what to do if you we cannot submit to our local VO due to arriving in Canada sooner than it would take for the visa to come?

Question : do common law spousal sponsorship application usually complicate/slow down final approval or completion of the process ? or is that just my perception ?
It feels like marriage is a big thing for the sponsorship to move quickly vs common law.

I think you should let IRCC know via Web form. I got PPR last Wednesday, but I'm currently in Canada so I sent message to Beijing vo to inform that via Webform. Then the agent directly replied to me very next day and told me what I should do next.
and what did you have to do if you dont mind me asking? Send to Ottowa? The thing is, we will be in Canada in 10 days, so can't change our address just yet.
It depends. A common law couple of ten years and three children with demonstrable proof living together is not a hard case.
Barely twelve months and weak evidence of cohabitation - yes, it can complicate or even result in refusal.
The concept of common law historically was (roughly) that there is little or no doubt, they are 'held out to be' married or as good as by all. Anything in between can raise questions.
Thanks. I think our common law application had very little doubt with over 4 years together, nearly 4 living together (the other part was in student housing, same building), we had registration proof, lease proof, family & friend letters, photos, proof of shared expenses...
OK, seeing as other people with similar timeline are now getting answers, I think I’ll order our notes on Monday.
Thank you!
Hey, no we didn't, our immigration consultant thought we might at some point but it never happened.
Hi there,
Yes we had confirmation of delivery and each time we try and contact immigration they tell us to just be patient but its getting a bit ridiculous now. We will try and ring them this week.
