So I finished my running around and just spent 20 min on hold but the lady said that stage 1 has completed, my sponsor approved, and my file has been transfered to my VO. Maybe we'll receive something in writing before the week is out then.

Yay! A bit of peace of mind goes a long way 8)

Thanks! Still those voices in the back of my mind and I'll assume they'll stay there until we actually see something that confirms this but 85% of me is jumping for joy right now haha.

Hey guys! You all seem very nice so I'm going to join the spreadsheet as well:

Category: FAM (Common-Law more specifically)
VO: São Paulo
App Filed: Dec 20, 2013
Med's done: Oct. 29, 2013

And that's all I have so far.
Also, I'm currently working in Japan while I wait and I want to visit my boyfriend in May, when we were trying to decide between Outland and Inland, we read that an upside of applying Outland is being able to leave Canada and visit etc. but nobody told us it was almost impossible to get a TRV based on dual intent.
We have a wedding to attend in August but I'm afraid I don't have enough ties to Japan, I'm 19, I don't own a house and unfortunately, I still don't have Permanent Residency Status in Japan... In fact, my long term resident visa here is only valid for 1 year now.

How could I build a strong TRV application?

Hi Ellasg,

In order to be added to the spreadsheet, you need to be an Outland applicant. If that's the case, do you know when your application was received by CPC-M?

Just to be clear, who is sponsoring who?

Congrats! That's great news.

When did CPC-M receive your application?

 

[benjis_monikuss]

So do I have my timeline right? If we're going by eCas,

Filed: Dec 3, 2013.
Stage 1 AoR: Dec 28, 2013
Sponsor Approval/ Decision Made: Jan 7, 2014
Medical Results Received: Jan 11
Stage 2 AoR @ CPC-Sydney VO: Jan 13, 2014.

I've yet to receive an email confirming SA but have the second AoR from Sydney. It states in the sponsors section on eCas, decision made, a letter was sent to you on Jan 7th, please allow 7 days yadda yadda. Today is the 7th day so hopefully we get something today.

Hi All! New to this thread, but have exciting news to share.

We received sponsorship approval on January 10 for my Canadian husband to sponsor me.

We submitted on December 6 and received our AOR (I think that's the right acronym) on January 3.

Fingers crossed for a speedy process for all!!
