Is it unusual that my application shows on the sponsor part that it's in process even though I received a document stating I'm eligible to sponsor my wife?

Hey!

So I'm new here and also very new to this sponsorship process. I am sponsoring my wife, hoping maybe if I post the info from the online status page you could let me know where about's we are.

On the sponsor side of things it says:

We received your application to sponsor xxxx xxxx on January 7, 2016.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on February 27, 2016.
We started processing your application on February 26, 2016.

I also have received a letter from them on March 3rd indicating I have been deemed eligible to sponsor my wife.

On the PR Application side of things it says:

We received xxxx xxxx application for permanent residence on January 7, 2016.
Medical results have been received.

Looking forward to hearing from some of you and being a part of this forums! Also best of luck to everyone else sponsoring their spouses!
Looks to me like this is good news! you were approved as a sponsor and the application was sent to your Visa Office for further processing. Congratulations :D

Hey jmcrizzle! I don't think thats unusual because I have the same thing too and I got my SA in early Feb. Until now it still shows in process even though the file has been transferred Haha. Don't worry!

Great to hear the famous 3rd line appeared to people. I have some great news too, my visitor extension is approved (I applied early March) so I can stay in Canada longer. Here's to hoping a faster processing to all!

Good luck everyone.

I asked the same question to one of my friends who applied a few years ago. She said usually around the 6 month mark to order notes....I sent my app in January so I am going to order my notes in June or July

The longer you wait the more information you should find on it. This is why it does not make much sense in ordering them at this stage (not much information will be in them). To answer you, there is no specific time that you need to wait.

Mine doesn't have 3rd line: Medical results.. Even though medical was done upfront. :'(

However, it does have "We started processing the application xxxxx"
