Perhaps someone else can better chime in on this. We sent our police certificate with our initial application. I would imagine that is the case, but don't know.
It depends on the country of application. Some you are required to submit with the application, other countries will not release the record check without a letter from CIC that you get while your application is processed, others CIC provides a form online you submit.

Hello,

I am new here, my husband is Canadian and we applied for my sponsorship visa in July through an immigration lawyer. It is an inland application but we both reside in my country, his job allows him to work remotely and at least we can be together . The lawyer sent us an email on Nov 9th (4months later) that he received an acknowledgment letter for the opening of the file. Is that the same as the term AOR I have seen?

I want to apply for a visiting visa next year, to visit his family, what are the chances of me getting the visa or there is no point and its better to wait for the spousal visa answer?
What are the next steps after they view the file? Do they ask for more documents or we wait for an interview? since it is an inland application and we are in another country, will we have to travel to Canada for the interview then?
I'm confused... if you applied inland, you HAVE to stay INSIDE Canada. If both of you aren't living together in Canada then you are Outland.

I'd assume that they've at least accepted your application into processing since it has been at least 4 months, otherwise your application would have been sent back by now. So I would say that the letter they sent was indeed Acknowledgement of Receipt (AOR)

You need to consult with your lawyer to find out more information on it though, since they are the only ones who will have access to it.

In regards to the visitor visa, it is best to wait until your PR process is done and over with so you won't have to bother with it. Most people that apply to visit while waiting for PR are denied anyway.

Then again, there is no harm in trying.

Not everyone needs to do an interview, and if one is requested it would be in the Principal Applicant's home country, not in Canada.

Since you have a lawyer handling your case, they'll be the ones updating you on what steps you need to do next.

Agreed. If you've submitted an inland application but are not in Canada - and passport records will indicate this - you are not eligible for the in-Canada class. If you've submitted a Canadian address and said you live there while not living there, you may have other issues (misrepresentation for one) that will be relatively well discovered at the passport request stage when they observe that you do not have an entry into the country.

Chat with your lawyer. Something doesn't make sense here.

with work permit ? please can you share your timelines of application with details?
Well, I checked the OWP box but I didn't attach the related form.

On Sep 11, we have submitted the documents to CPC. On Oct 4, we have received the letter to apply for CSQ. Today, we have received the CSQ.

We indicated that we are living together in my country and not in Canada. The question would be can a lawyer in Canada apply for Outland from there? I just assumed it's in-land since all the documents were submitted in Canada.
