I added it in the May 2015 spreadsheet. For the main 2015 Outland spreadsheet I could only put a note saying the medical date because the moderator had not allowed changes to that cell. Must wait for the moderator to notice the note. Sneakily I changed the "Number of Days since Medical" to be the medical date so it is not just a number and the moderator should notice it quickly.

The page showing processing times for sponsoring for spouses has CHANGED.

Singapore, Lima, Manila and Ottawa seem to have dropped by a month from what it showed before.

Warsaw increased a little, Cairo went up a lot 20 to 28, but shockingly Hong Kong doubled up from 10 to 20 and Beijing more than tripled from 10 to 37! I hope there is some sort of mistake there. Mine is Hong Kong. :'(

Gah (( That is very bad news for me as I am at the Cairo office. It was 18 months last time which is already forever.

I'm now in process! Does anyone know if the AoR2 is something that is email or snail mail or anything sent at all?

I'm also in process since 2 days ago, however, the SA says in process too, we already received the sponsorship approval letter one week before my status change to IP.

Btw, until now and since my status changed to IP I haven't received any AOR2 (email or letter), so i don't know what to think...

My wife (applicant) got her AOR2 email one day after ECAS showed "In Process" for the Applicant. Her ECAS also showed her as "In Process". It seems that IP has recently changed meaning from what it used to imply. It used to mean it was getting close to the end but now just seems to be that it reached the stage of at least starting to be looked at. Look at the 2015 Outland spreadsheet to see that several applicants in May and June have IP but many in previous months are still waiting. So don't take IP too seriously now.

Hi all i'm a May applicant. we got Aor1 on July 14 and file transferred on July 20 to Manila visa office because i'm Korean. On Aug 14 received Aor2 by Email that request fully filled up Appendix A but didn't ask about photos which they already have. After the day, my statue changed to in process and nothing happen so far. just waiting and frequently checking CIC. it's been a week passed, i'm wondering anyone were asked filled up Appendix A? There's some people processed family sponsorship last year said they got DM after a week or two they were asked Appendix A. so.. i hope that is a good sign..

Hi buttersmom and welcome. If you like you can fill in your info on the May 2015 spreadaheet and the 2015 Outland spreadsheet. Links are below my post.

My wife, a Chinese applicant, was asked for a few things including Appendix A if they were not sent already. But she included Schedule A in her original application so of course she did not send again. She is also In Proxess. But CIC seems to change the way they do things from year to year, and In Proxess just seems to now mean they startwd work on it so not much meaning. But getting your AOR2 and getting requests in it such as Appendix A is still a good sign that CIC is looking at tour case. That"s all I can say. When you see a Decision Made for the applicant that is a big sign.

the Appendix A requested by Manila VO is a different one. Its a one page, table format where you input the personal, passport, contact number adress and email.. Manila VO sends it as a pdf attachment when they request for Passport and other docs not previously sent. The appendix A is to verify your personal details as well as the contact detailsand addrress where they will be sending the visa anc copr later on.

Thank you toffeeboss for the comment! the document i filled up and sent was the Appendix A you are mentioning. as long as i know they won't ask me PPR because canada is no-visa entry for south korea passport. The thing i was wondering was Appendix A is one of the last step before DM. I'm hoping it is ;D

Hello fellow May applicants,

Just checking in to see how everyone's progress is coming along (if at all).

I know most of us have applications just sitting in our VO.

I noticed a lot of March applicants are now getting COPR, so I'm hoping that means we'll be seeing it in the next month or two!

Cheers!

Our status has been unchanged since receiving SA. The application is assumed to be sitting in Ottawa.
