Hi everyone. So as originally mentioned last week, I submitted some additional information to KVO. The information was not requested, I had a few extra things that I felt would be of use to the application. I have just received the following email from them:

Dear *********,

The information in your email has been acknowledged and placed on your spouse ************ application.

This Family Class application was received in Kingston on January 25, 2016. The application is currently in the queue for initial review. It will be reviewed in accordance with its place in the queue for applicants in this category, based on the application received date. Following the initial review, the applicant will be advised directly of the decision or any next steps.

Processing times for these applications are calculated from the date the application is received by the Kingston visa office. The times to first review, interview (if required), and finalization may vary depending on the number of new applications received and the individual complexity of each application. For actual processing times of permanent resident applications in Kingston for the last 12 months, consult this link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/08-fc-parents.asp. Applicants may also refer to our website, www.Jamaica.gc.ca, for more information about processing times.

We continue to work hard to make our processing of Family Class applications as efficient as possible, while at the same time bearing in mind the capacity of our settlement community to support and assist newcomers with their transition toward making Canada their home.

Sincerely,

The total time to process and Outland application now is 17 months. That includes the sponsorship approval part. Which is 61 days or so. So 15 months from when the Visa office receives it is when you should have a decision as long as everything goes smoothly, could be sooner could be later

Thanks to both of you that responded. I guess worst case scenario would be 17 months... I was actually surprised that they sent a personal email with both my name and my spouses information. I already received an automated one last week at the exact time that I uploaded the info. Nice to know that someone is actually there acknowledging things
