JANUARY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

[Deffy2016]

Hi all,
I gave today the passport and they said i will get it back by the end of next week with the PR visa.
I wish you all best of luck with your application.

Our visa office was Ottawa and we applied on January 18th.

Congratulations! At least January applicants had been so quiet. Nice to have some good news from someone.
Some of us still have a couple of months more to wait.

Hello All,

Am going to apply for Canada immigration and am a married person.

Can you please help me whether i need to fill the application along with my spouse or later i can do once after filling for me alone and getting PR

In second case, any chances on questions like why you haven't filled along with spouse in visa interviews or some where?

It's been so quiet January family. I thought by the end of April we would have a few DM from our faster offices but so far nothing. There have been several for December and even a February applicant got one last week (that has to be a record for fastest DM ever)! Any updates from anyone? How is everyone managing with the waiting?

No answers, no questions, no nothing! I am getting scared.

How can we know the processing times by eCAS? Mine is Sao Paulo - Brazil.

Thanks and congratulations for those who are coming to Canada already!

I've heard nothing yet either.

Ecas won't show you processing times. Your best bet is to look at the spreadsheets (see the post above yours by ai_hopeful for links) and follow the monthly threads. I think Brazil is one of the faster offices though so hopefully not much longer for you.

Oh yah!? Wow! It just makes me so curious what makes some go faster than others! I feel like my application is very straight forward compared to some.. but I wonder if that even matters or it's all up to who processes it and how their day is going : hehe

Thanks for the answer! Guess, is just pray and wait. It's just very frustrating and scaring having your life on someone else's hands and they are taking there sweet time. What make's it so different from one office to another? For what I see, only European and Australian offices are faster. What's behind this huge difference?
