Hi all,
Thank you for this great forum. I submitted the application for my wife on March 11 2019 and received on April 9. Already got the Biometrics instructions and they are done last week. Wife is in Iraq. What are the next steps? Is getting the Biometrics around this time means application is going good? Also, how long does it take usually for Iraqi citizens?
Thanks
Baerak

6 months around wish you luck :)

I've read a few posts on this forum in the past where someone in a similar situation to yours (sponsor was a PR) left Canada to be with their partner while the application was processing, and it gave them problems later. In those cases IRCC asked them to provide proof they lived in Canada. I think they had been out of Canada for a few months in those situations though.

I am so sorry about your family's loss, and I completely understand where you're at. If my husband phoned me to tell me one of his parents died, I would be on the first plane back to the UK. I think IRCC would also be understanding of the situation, and a few weeks is probably going to be fine. But I just wanted to tell you that being out of Canada as a PR while you have a sponsorship application processing can cause some issues if you're gone for a long while. Safe travels, and warm thoughts to you and your family.
Thank you!

When i logged in with tracking id provided by VFS Global its also showing that message that visa application has been received on Islamabad office and is on transit to IRCC office in Islamabad for processing. Although we never dealt with VFS. Her background check is showing in process.

So our timelines are -

BR passed May 13
Moved to VO (Singapore) May 17

Hi all again,

so i received an email today from CIC saying that the sponsorship application is sent to Amman (my wife is in Iraq) for processing. Any idea what does this mean? and how long does it take to process at that office? from your experience are they fast?
thanks,
Baerak

Is it normal that our application can only be linked to the sponsor OR applicant at one time, but not linked to both of us at the same time? Because I linked one and then tried linking another and now it only appears on one...

Just wanted to see if anyone else has this same thing or if it is a technical issue?

Thanks! :)
