Thank you for helping.Welcome to Family Class Sponsorship JULY 2018 thread - OUTLAND
Hi,
Feel free to ask questions, share thoughts and seek advice.
What happens after submitting my application?
If your application is complete, you will receive Acknoledgment of Receipt (AOR1) whithin 60 days, usually 45 to 56 days via email.
Then, if eligible, the sponsor will receive the Sponsor Approval email(SA) which contains the UCI (Unique Client ID) and application number to use for tracking the status of the application.
Then, if not submitted with the application:
1. Police Check Certificate Request(PCC)
2. Medical Exam Request
3. Request to pay for PR Card (RPRF)
4. Request to submit additional documents, 5. Request for any additional documents that were missing from your application.
At this stage, you can check the status of your application online(ECAS) or link your application to GCKEY.
Then you might receive a file transfer email to the Local Visa Office(VO).
God speed
Hi,
I have a question/concern about my Spousal sponsorship application-outland. I have sponsored my husband from Pakistan on July 10, 2017. The application at this point is in London visa office and we received our Pre-arrival Services letter on June 13, 2018 but we haven't heard anything since than. I had sent an enquiry through Web and the response was that they are doing background/security check. However, everything else looks good. At this point my application had completed the processing time of 12 months. Should we be concerned? How does the background/security checks take normally?
