****JULY 2018***** OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA
- Thread starter revenant
- Start date
Application received on July 16th at Sydney office. I called today to check the status as there is no AOR or update till now. All these times I was assuming that they are processing the application. However, The answer was the process is not started yet. So I requested to send a note to the officer and I got my temp application number. Holding the passion and waiting to hear some updates soon.
Hello Guys,
I was a silent observer of this forum until now. I thought I should post my timeline here so that I can get more info from the experienced member, and the people who are waiting can compare their situation.
My spouse is from India.

Medical Received Status on ECAS------------->Saturday, October 20, 2018
Days elapsed 106
Notes:
1. I didn't get any word from CIC whatsoever until Oct 2, 2018. So, my wife asked me to phone them. A very polite agent answered my call, and she confirmed that my file was due for sending out initial response. That's how I got my first AOR and everything followed after.
2. I was not able to link my application to GCKey, so I contacted the CIC through Webform for case-specific inquiries on Oct 12, 2018. I got their response back on Oct 16, 2018. (Meanwhile waiting for their response I tried numerous methods to link the app, and I came to know that the number of Applicants was wrong. I was supposed to put 2. I linked the app on Oct 14, 2018)
3. I asked my wife to scan a medical test receipt from the doctor and forward to me. I submitted the same via Case Specific inquiry Web form On Oct 16th, and I got a response from them on Oct 17 saying - " We have received your Medical Receipt and forwarded to the related department"
So, Moral of the story is that call the CIC agents for the first time until you have your AOR, and once you have App number don't bother calling them. Use webform instead with specific concerns. I hope that helps the people who are waiting.
Cheers!!

Congrats on your progress! Your post is really informative!. When I called the CIC during September I heard the eligibility check is in progress. I felt happy and didn't bother to check again. Today heard the process is yet to start! it was heart attack!!
I would strongly recommend everyone who haven't received any updates yet, Please call the CIC and find out where exactly your application is. Thank you.Thanks. I have updated my post after reading through your frustration. Please have a look, as I have updated a couple of scenarios that happened in my case. That will help you understand your situation.Congrats on your progress! Your post is really informative!. When I called the CIC during September I heard the eligibility check is in progress.

When you say the number of family members were not right, did you mean that you needed to enter 2 for sponsor and applicant?
Hi Friends,
Could you please let me know, who would receive the PPR email is it the person who acts like representative (in my case its me Sponsor) or the PA?
