MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship
- Thread starter sk2020
- Start date
Can someone please help. I am travelling to Vancouver on 3rd but till now unable to book the listed hotel as when I am calling from India, they are not responding. I have to book prior to board my flight else I will not be allowed.
Confirm with airlines. I've heard that not everyone can get hold of someone on line and official are aware of that.
If you cant book then they will take you to government quarantine facility.
And if everything is full you might get lucky and get to quarantine at home (depending on your arrangement)..check this link
finally!!! Got DM this morning, were so happy
Yeah I was thinking there will probably be a batch of them soon like they did at the end of the yearFinally!! Congrats! Very happy for you
With so many of us with similar timeline getting DM together, PPR should also come soon!

which VO did your application go to?
you have to wait for the passport request next so you can submit your passport for stamping. that timeline will depend on your application's VO
I don't know the visa office? I plan to land near Toronto, ON.
I also mailed my application from inside Toronto, ON

Who did you hear that from? I don’t think that’s an actual thing but I could be wrong. Congrats on the decision made!
Are you asking who I heard from about healthcare workers being expedited?: I did a pre-arrival program for nurses called the PASS program through the IRCC. It's called Center for Internationally Educated Nurses. I really don't think it was expedited since it's been a year, and expected time frame is a year anyway, but COVID I guess could have delayed it more.
