Hi there,
I applied for spouse sponsorship in May 2013 and sent my file to Mississauga office - Ontario and got approval. My file was sent to Delhi office on 28 th May 2013. My wife's passport was requested on july 14 2013 and She sent it next day and was received by 18 th July 2013. Since then I haven't heard anything so far (Dec 23rd 2013). No status was updated until today .Status online was "File received on May 28" so far but now its says "Started Process on 23rd Dec 2013". So I am not sure here that wats going on ....Did they need 7months just to start processing?......Can Anyone help me out on this situation please?
Hi, I guess you hadn't seen the replies to your post.
Firstly, welcome to the forum.
Secondly, congratulations on getting In Process (IP)
Thirdly, yes, it does take a while to process the applications, more so now that the Visa Office was on strike for 6 months and has been trying to clear backlogs. Plus they are lazy and hardly motivated to work.
So good luck and hope you get the visa quickly.
