It looks like our process is very similar! My husbands eligibility however has still not been completed on PR tracker since February. Did you fill out the application yourself or did you get a lawyer to help you? I really hope end of this month or next we will get PPR …. As for interviews I think up until you receive the PPR there’s a possibility but I’ve read that they only ask for interview if there are more than 1 factors that make them doubt your relationship. For example a big age gap, if you haven’t been in the relationship for very long, multiple marriages like if you’ve recently been divorced and re married etc. As far as I’ve researched that’s the only reason for interview is if they are not convinced your relationship is legit. Mexico seems to be very slow… Please do share with me when you receive a new update!

Hey everyone.
Im a canadian citizen currently living with my wife in Pakistan. Applied for her PR
Submitted Spousal sponsorship application outland on paper from Pakistan.
Submission date : 15th August 2022
AOR : 13th October 2022
I still haven’t received any update after the AOR and its been 4 months and they haven’t required for any additional documents such as biometrics or medical. Anyone else in the same boat as us?

It seems that paper application are being processed late as the IRCC has transitioned to an online application system.
Hi all, Is there any update for anybody after medical passed for outland, paper application (New Delhi VO)? Thank you!
