**MISSISSAUGA PROCESSING** - Outland Spousal Applicants

[FrostiRose]

A couple of weeks until it's been 13 full months of processing for me. Still no real updates from IRCC. Still no one answering any type of questions other than "we have everything we need, if need more information we will let you know".
I've been in contact with my MP, IRCC told him it was taking a long time because they had to verify my military background (10 months compulsory/conscript service which all male over the age of 18 used to have to do, I did mine 1996/1997 after high school) Well, it took me one email to the Swedish Recruitment Agency and a few days wait for the postal service to get official military records sent home to me. Uploaded that through a case specific enquiry. Still nothing from IRCC...
Man, IRCC are killing me with their processing....

Congrats y'all ! I landed on the 13th of January. Is there anything particular to do for the PR card? I see people in this thread talking about linking PR card application... I don't know what's that all about? Or did you actually mean linking the PR application?

Jealous of everyone who is getting dm and ppr! Ten months on the 29 for us. Sure hope something happens soon!

Me too! 10 months for us on 22nd.... straight forward case and I'm pretty sure I had an anxiety attack today when a brown envelope came in the mail...turns out to be just someone who lived here before us owes taxes....sigh! Someday eh Jeff!??

Did you get an e-mail or saw anything on ECAS? Just wondering if I should check everyday (like I have for 10 months), or if it simply comes in the mail!?

You will get a PPR first before you get your COPR. Your ECAS will say DM, then within the next couple of days you'll receive an email with a PDF attachment that is your PPR including instructions for the documents you need to send to Ottawa for them to issue your COPR.

You can link your PR card application to your existing GCKey account you'd already have from the PR application. https://immiknowhow.com/2017/12/24/linking-pr-card-application-online/

Arrr, I hear you. For some reasons, CPC-Mississauga messed up most US applications filed between Jan. to March, 2017. That is really unfortunate. CPC-Mississauga got on their feet again for most US applications after that period, which now is pretty standard a 6 months process.

How long does it take to get COPR from Ottawa? They received our PPR documents yesterday and my hubby is visiting me in Canada so COPR will be mailed within Canada. It will be 12 months next Tuesday since we’ve applied for PR. I’m wondering if Ottawa would mail it within the week. Or is that wishful thinking on my part lol

Wishful thinking unfortunately, but don't fret, you are close to the end. Ottawa received my docs on the 5th and mailed my COPR on the 22nd (yesterday).
