I'm going to be applying for a Dual Intent TRV (Visitor Visa) for my wife on the PR Portal. It'll be for the purpose of her coming to Canada until the PR application gets approved. At the current pace, I'm hoping the PR Application gets approved by August of 2023.

Wishful thinking, maybe. But hopeful.

Almost same situation, with a little bit of difference in timing, and the fact that Medical wasn't requested yet. But exactly same for what happened with Background check on GCKey.

I've applied for TRV last week. it gets added automatically to PR Tracker.
Timeline in bio.

BTW, when we got SA approval on March 9th, the letter said application will be forwarded to Amman office for further processing.
After checking with Amman office, it turned out that they got the file on May 22nd (which is very disappointing, and confusing), and now it goes into Amman VO queue.
So always expect delays! But stay hopeful :)

Any update January applicants?
I completed 5 months today since I applied.
BG verification in progress since 19th April, no update after that and no ghost updates either.
