Hello everyone.. want to share some good news. I saw so many people here received my AOR in march, almost similar timeline as me. I decided to give cic a ring.
I am a Hui Chinese-Canadian citizen sponsoring my wife from Tunisia. I am from Nanaimo, British Columbia.
The call centre was extremely busy; i had to try twice before the system can transfer me to a live person.
My old client ID, when I used to become PR was more than a decade ago.. I gave it to her anyway. apparently it worked . She asked my home and work number. Name and date of birth.. based on her tone.. I was like.. hmm I must be in the system. cuz I never gave cic my current work number during my own PR application, which was 15 years ago. lol. then she put me on hold for 5 mins..
She told me they received my application back in March 29th. currently 39 days to approve.
I asked her if I should submit the new option C of 2015. She told me that the spousal application wasn't income based. not necessary.
Despite I had a perception from this forum that cic call centre wasn't helpful. I found the lady I talked to was polite and friendly. not sure if know a few French made me different; cuz she sounds like a Quebecer. I speak a little bid French.
So I guess you should give a ring; if your timeline is like mine.
good luck everyone!
I wonder why CIC did not email me? neither i receive a physical mail too.
