Hi Guys,

I sent my outland application for sponsoring my wife on june 7th and received AOR on July 21. After that no updates. It has been 5 months and there isn't a single update on the application. I have been regularly checking the GCKey and ECAS for any changes in the status. nothing. I applied for GCMS notes and am yet to receive it. Today i called the CIC again and an agent told me that they have sent my sponsorship file for additional reveiw and i have to wait till they decide if i am eligible to sponsor. What is this? I have a full time job and earn 100k a year. I gave my employment details, bank account statements, paystubs and everything. what else do they need to reveiw for 4 months? are they going to reject it? I am freaking out. I heard the rejections are quite heard to handle. Literally takes years to appeal and stuff. I don't know what to do. I am all discouraged and am mentally disturbed. someone please help me with the details. what does they mean by review and will they really take this much time just for review?
 
I just noticed that # 2. had updated to started processing on Sept 10th. Does that mean NDVO starting working on the file after transfer?

It is very annoying for sure... I don't know what else they would look at, since it seems that you're a good sponsor. I guess they assess the sponsor not only financially, but they look at previous marriages, kids on other marriages, criminal records, bla bla bla... are you a Canadian citizen or PR? I am not sure if they perform a BGC on the sponsor side, but this is something that can take a looooong time

Hello guys. I’m confused. Our application was received on June 21st. Got transferred on October 9th to our VO. No medical request and I just received pre arrival services. What does that mean? Can someone tell me if it’s normal receiving Pre arrival before med req.
 
Hey guys!
Update: finally, after 50 days without any contact, I received my MR today :) :) :)

Gonna try to schedule that ASAP!
Good news, happy for you
