December 2019 Inland Spousal Application (With or Without OWP)

[JohnCana123]

Do you guys think this new requirement for inland biometrics means that our applications will take longer to process?

 

[JohnCana123]

Biometrics are valid for 10 years, she should me good.

They may not be valid.

This is from CIC website:

“If you apply for permanent residence
You need to give biometrics.

If you’re between 14 and 79 years old, you need to give your fingerprints and photo for all permanent resident applications, even if you already gave us your biometrics and they’re still valid. This includes:

family class
economic class
persons with refugee, protected person, or asylum status in Canada”

We place the barcode pages under the checklist. And yes the checklist was the top page of the whole package. After the barcodes pages we followed the order of the checklist.

I've sent in my Sponsorship application for my wife, along with her PR application and Open Work Permit all in one envelope as advised by CIC.

Sent from courier: December 12, 2019
Received: December 13, 2020
Official AOC: February 12, 2020 (61 days)

I checked my applications status as sponsor via: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?lang=en
It says my Sponsorship is in process and PR is in process... however there is no mention of the Open Work Permit. What does this mean? has anyone experienced the same thing? We are both looking forward for the OWP so she can go back to work. Her Temporary WP will expire March 13. I'm curious what this would mean legally if she continues to work or just quit while waiting for OWP.

Create an online account and search OWP application. If it is in the system then link it and receive updates.

Hey guys,
Any AOR for apps received in January?

Hey guys,

I think January applicants would start receiving their AOR next month. They are on late December applications now. My inland spousal application was sent on the 27th December and received 30th December and I am expecting my AOR next week.

I guess so...
Mine was sent on Dec 31st and received on Jan 3rd.
Maybe I should wait till the 2nd week of March.

Just called helpline, as I am still having trouble accessing my account. Only thing that has changed is 'we are processing your background check'. I thought this was the last thing they done? Not started reviewing my eligibility yet.

I have the same message under "Background Check". That's odd though. Do you think it's some sort of a bug?

Can other December applicants who have received AOR please check and let us know if they have the same message or not? Thanks in advance!

Must be a bug, or they have changed the process order. Message saying i do not need medical or fingerprints as well (they will get in touch if i do). Seems strange
