May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

[Aurora9]

Is there anyone who had an OWP and then applied for a SOWP after receiving an AOR but it hasn't been approved yet?

I think they were asking about the PA

PA is a visitor

Hey, on what status was your spouse before applying for SWOP? Was it visitor visa?

Are AIP and SA the same thing? If not, how long does it take nowadays to get AIP after sponsor receives SA?

AIP is for a principal applicant and SA is for a sponsor. These are sent out when the eligibility stage is done for both principal and sponsor and should come around the same time but are not necessary on the same day. Can be a few days apart.

thanks! i got worried because everyone else from May inland who has received SA so far seems to have received AIP already and that too on the same day, but my spouse hasn't seen anything yet.

At least you have received the SA. The AIP will follow soon. Wish you good luck.

The wait is excruciatingly painful for some cases from May (mine being one)!

Could be a glitch with the application that sends the letters or they may have sent it by post. I have heard of people who called IRCC and were told AIP was sent despite never receiving it. It wouldn't hurt to check.

Agreed! I was one of the unlucky ones (but not AIP/SA) but P1! I never received it!!!

How did you get P2 without P1 to reply to?

How did you get P2 without P1 to reply to?

After waiting weeks without P1 (I kept calling them and pleading with them to resent P1 to me), I decided to use the KAI method, and then a week after I sent that email, I got P2.
