Hi,

Should the PA or Sponsor receive contact that application has been forwarded to VISA office for further processing?

I (Sponsor) received SA, but in the letter it did not state that the application has been forwarded, but only I was SA...

I guess it depends what order things happen in.
Many of the applicants in the spreadsheet receive SA before medical.
 
Order was:

AOR1 received
App linked
Requested Schedule A and Police Certificates
Requested Medical
Received SA

- Medical will be done Monday

Then I'm sure they will be waiting on your medical results.

When did you receive SA? What does it say on your ecas or MyCIC?

On ECAS, if you see the line (on PA's side) that says, "We started processing XYZ application on MM/DD/YYYY.", this means that PA's file is already at the visa office.

On MyCIC, Review of Eligibility should say, "We are reviewing your eligibility.... and so forth".

For whatever reason CIC has, not all receives AOR2.

Ya I was under the impression they would wait until they receive results of my wife's medical. Makes sense for them to have Schedule A, Police Certificates and medical before forwarding on. Just was wondering because (and please correct me if I am wrong) I thought I have read others applications being forwarded without having all uploaded that we have been requested for.

Only received SA on the 15th so only been a couple days, but been told that when others received SA it also mentioned there application had been forwarded, but mine only said I'd been SA. Maybe those provided Medical upfront...

Hey Db I have same situation here. I received SA letter but they requested for Sched A, PCC and Medicals before they forward the file to local VO.
 
Hi,

Ok cool. Will see what we receive once my wife's medicals arrive at CIC.
 
Outline:
Application sent Feb 22, 2017
Application received Feb 24, 2017
AOR - 1 March 8, 2017
SA - March 10, 2017
Application linked Match 13, 2017

I have not received a request to upload Schedule A or a police certificate. I have had them completed for 2 weeks at this point. I know they may not send the request right away but it's been over a week since the AOR 1. Should I be worried? try to call CIC? Am I missing something?

You should call and ask about your file. Other members who didn't get any email like yourself have gotten their application number after calling in.

Also I am currently outside of Canada. i guess i will have to fillout a web form. but what reference do i give them? for them to locate my file?
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
 
Still no SA email for me.

I did check my ECAS today and in the "Sponsor Applicant" it says "decision made" so I'm hopeful!

We did the medical in Dec (booked it before the Dec 15th changes) so they had the medical information as passed when I got the AOR1 (March 2nd). And they requested the Schedule A and criminal checks on March 5th and we submitted on the 5th. So, hopefully I get the SA email soon and it indicates which visa office it is being sent to.
