No problem :) Btw what was the additional document request? My wife got additional documents request and after 2 weeks both eligibility and background checks were completed.
No, there wasn’t a request for additional documents from IRCC. We went to Dubai for our anniversary & travel documents were uploaded to keep IRCC in loop.

What were the additional documents requested in your case ?

For her it was the original police certificate because she forgot to submit her original copy and only submitted the translated copy.

My husband's medical was completed on March 23rd, no update ever since then. Visa office is New Delhi.
Applied on Jan 30th 2024
So basically, New Delhi office is taking more than 10 months to process a file ??!! My local MP got response from New Delhi that they will finish process before 10 months, In my case it will be 8 Jan.

Hi everyone, Hoping to get some responses from applicants in the same boat like mine.

Visa office : New Delhi
PA : India
Sponsor : Canadian PR
Application submitted : Jan 30th 2024
AOR received : Feb 29th 2024
Medical completed : March 23th 2024
Biometrics completed : Completion date not specified on the Tracker
Background Verification : In progress
Eligibility : Not Started
As per the Tracker File Last updated : Dec 5th 2024

- Still no further response. Reached out to my Local MP for update didn't get much help!
- Submitted a Webform to New Delhi Visa office yesterday for an update.
- Applied for GCMS notes today to get more visibility on the process.


Is there anything else I should do ?
Anyone else here with similar timeline, waiting for an update on their File?
My timeline is almost same as yours, I applied on Jan 26, 2024. I have been getting the ghost update almost every single day, but the tracker doesn't show anything.

Not for all the cases . A friend of mine applied in May 2024 ; VO New Delhi ; Got the PPR yesterday. It's frustrating to understand what makes them work on NEW files when there's still a backlog of Old files waiting for responses.

My local MP said they do not have authority to access the files overseas. There is nothing they can do but wait & keep following up.
Hard to trust if they actually do put in an effort to get the information from IRCC or giving the answers we want to hear (Election candies!!)

Do you mind sharing your File updates since the day you applied including Ghost updates?
I do observe "UPDATED" date changes every month since September but no "real" update on the File.
Last one I had was on Dec 5th

I have reached out to the MP and they said the file is going through background checks and they told me to call them after new year like WTH? Does it take more than 10 months to do the background checks and how about the other applications which are getting approved in 3/4 months?
