I send KVO an email the other day. And they replied with this. But what I really want to know is if they are issuing passport request instead to applicants whose application they have completed. Because if not then we wont have our spouses here for months.
Good day,
Thank you for contacting the Migration Section of the Canadian High Commission in Kingston, Jamaica.
Please note that due to measures in response to COVID-19, we have reduced capacity to respond to non-urgent enquiries.
However, we acknowledge receipt of the information you have provided in your email regarding your family class application. This information has been added to your file.
Additional information for permanent resident applicants:
Please be aware that our office is not conducting interviews at this time, either in person or by telephone.
If you are waiting for an interview appointment, or if your interview was recently cancelled and you are waiting for a new date, we will contact you when an appointment is available. Due to the evolving nature of the current COVID-19 situation, at this time, we are unfortunately unable to advise you when this might be.
As we have many hundreds of applications from members of the family class active in our office, these applications are normally processed in order of application received date.
A supervisor will review your specific request as soon as possible, and you will be contacted directly:1) if anything specific is required from you at this time, 2) if there is any change in the status of your application, and/or 3) if the officer needs more information from you about your situation.
If we do not contact you, it means your application will continue to be processed routinely. If this is the case, we will reach out to you (or your authorized representative) when your application reaches the next stage in processing.
Please note that applicants for permanent residence continue to be subject to routine screening requirements, including security and medical assessments.
To learn more about special measures for persons affected by the current COVID-19 situation (for example: situations where clients are unable to undergo a medical examination or provide requested documents by the due date), please monitor the following links for ongoing updates:
