Received AOR on March 21st
Got asked for additional documents March 27th and uploaded those March 28th.
Still waiting for SA and MR, hoping that we hear news next week as it’s been 5 days today that they received the additional information and it takes them 5 days to review that.
Wonder why SA is taking so long? My sponsor earns very well, has been at the same company for 13 years and has an awesome Work background. No criminal record. Guess some CIC officers are slower than others maybe?

I’m sure they will. Have to remind myself that it’s only been 2 weeks since AOR and SA can come through weeks later. I’m sure next week we will hear news. They asked for the additional documents which made as assured that they are working on our case :)

Hi, just wondering what's "biometric passed" means!
In my GCKey account it says Biometric given: 1st April 2019 and valid until 1st April 2029, nowhere it says biometric passed.

and in the status it says
Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.

Its because they haven't requested Bio-metrics as yet that's why it says we do not need your fingerprints.

I am not sure about the pass.. but i know it does give your Biometric information on CIC account after its given
