***MAY 2017***OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA
- Thread starter nursegabo
- Start date
Guys who got an email yesterday saying that your applications are going to be processed in Mississauga, what does your ECAS say on PRAS column? In Process? If so, What date it says?
My Ecas hasn't changed since the middle of July, neither has my GCKey. I only have 2 lines on my Ecas - one to say my application has been received, and the next saying I've passed my medical.
That seems to be where the general confusion is over AOR2 - we don't know if the email yesterday actually was AOR2, but I'm taking it that it was.
I guess it will soon change. We shall consider that as AOR2. But what really matters is the date they start the processing.
Mine says Application Received and then only has the one line stating the date the application was received. Medical hasn't even been requested.
We received the email about getting processed in Mississauga also.
-Our ECAS still says application received.
-GCKEY says application "Application in progress. We will send message you a message when we start your background check."
No medical request as of yet...
PCC and Schedule A have been attached to account.
I wonder if they are skipping the medicals or waiting until the very end. Kind of DM pending medicals?

I have read of some not getting medical done on this forum. Pretty rare I understand but possible.
I have never heard of that - either way, hopefully this shift to having some apps in CPC M alleviates back logs and things move along
Found it. If you're a member of the live in caregiver class you may be exempt but not all live in caregivers are exempt.
Anyone who does not fall under that subset undergoes medical (as on CIC website)
Ahh, that's where I might have read it. Good call.
In countries like America they should waive the medical unless you look like you are dying. If you can stay in the country for up to six month, and even longer with a visitor extension I don't know why they would feel you need a medical.

Lol my husband has lived in Canada for the better part of a DECADE. Still had to get one. That was a few hundred dollars gone! Lol
Decision made should take anywhere from 2 to 4 months from here if yours is a straight forward case and no more documents/ an interview is required. You should keep track of applicants who have similar timelines as you on the wonderful spreadsheet that Karthik has created.U will not be able to link you application since you have a lawyer. You could call up the call centre num and listen to the automated status mesgs which are a replica of GC key. Also decision made will update on ECAS after your background check is complete.
