I’m out of status too, let us know if you figure out how to do it with the aip because that’s my next step too.
May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship
- Thread starter Sponsorship2024
- Start date
Yes ..forgot to mention that. Yea AIP received Oct 28 2024
AIP RECEIVED: OCT 28 2024
Medicals updated: COMPLETED Oct 30 2024 .. ps Medicals was never requested....well im guessing they pulled/ used medicals Principal applicant did in 2022 for study permit... and no we do not have a copy of the Medicals and so we never had to send it in through web form as some did. So yea... this is good... Lol.
Could someone shed some light on
- Does every sponsor receive a separate sponsor approval (SA)?
- Those who have received a separate SA, what was the content/message written in it?
- Does getting an AIP (to PA) implicitly mean a positive decision on sponsorship application, as in, the sponsor was also found eligible to sponsor (an implicit SA)?
I will answer from my experience. Can't say I am 10000% sure
1. I think so. The sponsor should receive an email about it. (but that was back in Jan this year) I don't know if it changed. However, we never got the mail version of it, though. I feel like you should be able to check on your tracker to see if the eligibility portion is completed and if it is, you guys should be receiving the email
2. My husband got an email with the subject: " Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada - Communication to client/Immigration, Réfugiés et Citoyenneté Canada - Communication auprès de la clientèle - CPCM / CTDM - Inland Sponsorship Eligibility Decision Letter XXXXXXX "
In the email, it would be something like:
Dear Client,
This email is regarding the Application for Permanent Residence that you submitted to this office.
Attached please find a letter related to your application. Please fully read the attachment and save this message for your records.
Then in the attached PDF, it should be...
SPONSOR's NAME
This refers to the Application to Sponsor a Member of the Spouse or Common-Law Partner in
Canada Class you submitted to this office on behalf of PA's NAME and family
(if applicable).
You have met the requirements for eligibility as a sponsor. The Application for Permanent
Residence (APR) for your relative will be processed separately and he/she will be contacted
shortly.
If you received this communication via email, please note that another copy will not be mailed to
you.
3. Can't say for sure,. All the stages have to be completed and we might not know until we got eCOPR?
Is there a way to find out what a ghost update might mean? We got a medicals request on Oct 24 and a ghost update on Nov 1, but cannot think of anything that may have caused the ghost update. Any ideas?
We also got a ghost update on a Friday (not for medicals though) and then on Saturday we got an email with AIP then on the following Monday the tracker got updated once again showing Eligibility completed.
There can be multiple reasons for ghost updates, behind the scenes multiple agencies' are working like background check , police verification etc. If any one of them updates their info on your application, then also you might get a ghost update. Can be anything. Until you are getting Ghost updates its good. it means your application is moving.
