Thank you! As of today, I can see my COPR number on the tracker but no portal request yet. I suppose I just need to wait. What about you? Any update?

different, e-COPR is the document to confirm your PR status, COPR number is simply a number for administrative purpose
you're not a PR until you get your e-COPR (virtual landing inside Canada) or COPR hard copy (together with visa stamping outside Canada) landed in Canada
Hello there. My wife's application for the spousal PR was submitted Feb 20th, 2024. After which things moved pretty quick, by end of April Medicals and Bio were given. But since then there has been no progress from what I can see. I am starting to get worried. Is this timeline normal ? What are our options here.

It’s normal , your probably in background check which is normally long.. it will go dead silence and then you get updates. Some cases are different , I see some getting through very quick. Keep your fingers crossed.
Hello everyone, please advise what to do in my situation.
We applied for sponsorship of spouses and without waiting for the AOR we applied for a visitor visa, 3 days before the decision on the visitor visa the AOR arrived, we sent this AOR by mail as proof that our application for sponsorship was accepted for consideration. But the visitor visa was refused.
Are my assumptions correct that the officer looked at the application for a visitor visa and there was no AOR attached, and they did not have time to see the letter that was sent. I read information that you need to apply for a visitor visa after you receive the AOR.
There is one reason for the refusal:
• I am not sure that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as required by
paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/reg ... -2002-227/
section-179.html). I am rejecting your application because you have not proven that you will
leave Canada based on the following factors:
• You do not have significant family ties outside of Canada.
If I apply again, will I be rejected for this reason again? Please respond.
Naturally, I do not plan to leave Canada because we applied for sponsorship and my wife (PR) and my biological son (Canadian citizen) are in Canada.

Family class (outside Canada and for outside Quebec) application submitted on Feb 10, 2024.
Received AOR on March 2, 2024
Biometrics done on March 26, 2024
Medical passed on March 30, 2024
And after that there has been no update. The IRCC processing time say 10 months but it has been close to 11 months now.
I'm now starting to worry why is this taking too long.
On the application status tracker site it say
Eligibility: Not Started
Background Verification: In Progress
And it has been like that since March.
Is there something I can do? I feel like something is up with the application.
Any suggestion/help is greatly appreciated.

Send web form, if it’s out the processing time frame you can also call and ask what’s going on
If it's any consolation, I am in the same boat. (my application was sent 28 February). Everything complete except background verification.
I think it's ridiculous that a background check should take SOO long, especially when you have to submit police clearance certificates up front anyway. Funny how it doesn't take them long to process payments though.
What makes it even worse is that they have processed applications which were submitted after February. I know 2 people whole applications were processed within 6-8 months. They’re no consistency.
