ACS said:So interestingly enough when I called the call center again at 8am, I got the same lady as last time. Melaine. She was super nice, and super helpful.
She confirmed again that my husband DOES have AIP, and even read back to me the email she sent yesterday asking them to email him the AIP, as well as an email asking why we haven't gotten our work permit yet.
She also said that she can see on Nov.10 his file was transferred to another department (but still in Mississauga) to review the Criminality issue. She said “not gonna lie, but it will take longer to process with the review of the criminality issue.” But that extra time will be for the issue of DM. It is not supposed to affect the issuance of the OWP. And she says we should have had it approved by now, and it is not.
But I *think* this could be a good thing? If our file was transferred to another department to review the criminality issue on Nov.10th and my husband got AIP on the 17th??? (although not sent to him, she told me 100% for sure he got AIP on the 17th). So if it was such a huge problem, they may not have issued AIP?
Wonder if I should order GCMS notes again yet??
That is my update for now. I am happy for everyone receiving their AIPs & OWPs and sorry for all of us in the stressful situation. I can't lie though...as happy as I am for everyone who is getting their OWPs it's a bit painful to see right now as we are sort of past due on ours, and I am so upset that we can't give our son the birthday and Christmas that he deserves because of money issues.![]()

filipina311 said:Hi my sponsor and i received emails today! He was approved as sponsor but on my end theyre asking for more proof of cohabitation. Aug 23 applicant here
So must be a trend now for the proof of relationship thing. I dont mind that however the agony comes again as to when you hear back again as there is no clear consistent communication with cic. I am thinking since these are the Missisauga people who are used to assessing outland apps, dont you think that they are applying their approach to inland? Where sponsorship approval is a distinct stage from the applicant approval? However, even that is the case, it sucks because for outland SA takes a short time while inland takes 16 months already. Just really unfair.
Nonetheless congrats filipina 311. At least you heard something from them.

todare said:My time for a stupid question. This is mostly because I wasn't paying attention in class. Today for the first time in E-cas, months after doing them, it says medical results are received. So I assume someone finally looked at our file and checked the box online to show that. We are near the end of our second waiting period. Now I know there was a Bring Foreward Date on our file this month so my question is: Has anyone else had the medical show up months later and did that indicate the file was close to being processed?
It is weird as our second medical was done in June of this year and they had the resulted in july at the latest. Crazzzzzy CIC. no logic.computergeek said:It's often unrelated to any other processing. Medical information is not maintained in the main CIC computer system, so they have a process of moving just the medical results (a 1-2 digit code) into the immigration file. I get the sense that this is done independent of normal file processing from what I can tell.
