This is what I figured out:

The Process in a Nutshell:

Stage-1: [CIO stage] Send Initial Apps+Processing Fees to CIO-NS > Qualitative Check > Issue of AOR+120 days Letter >

Stage-2: [CHC stage onwards] Send Full Docs+RPRF to the Local Visa Office > File on Queue > e-Cas: "Received by Visa Office" > Eligibility Check+PSDEC > Issue of 2nd AOR > Background Check > Issue of Additional docs Request [if any] > 1st BF'D > e-Cas: "In Process" > Send Addnl. Docs > Issue of Med Request > 2nd BF'D >

Stage-3: Meds Sent > e-Cas: "Medical Results Recd." > Issue of PPR* > Send Passport/s > Security Check > Visa/s Stamped > e-Cas: "Decision Made" >
*The Meds & PPR are sometimes 'clubbed' together.

Stage-4: Return of 'Stamped' Passport/s+COPR > Landing at the POE > e-Cas: "Completed".

Hi all,

I'm also 2013 applicant. I applied for spouse visa for my husband in Sept 2013. Subsequently, in October 2013 I received a mail stating that the received the application and would want my husband's passport and landing fees. We have submitted the passport since then.

Now, in June 2014 they asked for re-assessment of medicals and new Police Clearance Certificate. Its been almost a month since then and no news from embassy.

Also, when I check my application status its written that the processing time is 15 months, which was 12 months when my application started processing.

My questions are:
1. When does this processing time period start from? The day my application received the embassy or the day they started the processing?

2. Is there any helpline contact number I can have for any help regarding my file?

Thanks
Nimrat

ADR request email was sent to the applicant (Sponsored Person).
But the ADR itself was asking for the sponsor's divorce petition.
This request was made in May in our case.

Friends/Buddies,

Please help!
Just want to know how long are they going to take to stamp the visa after you give the interview.
Those who would have given the interview earlier might know this better.
FYI:

My interview is scheduled on October 7th. Passport is already with NDVO.

Koi tho please batao..
Thank you in advance.
Friends,

As I am in Canada on Work Permit - I need to travel back to India to attend the interview on October 7th.
Passport has been couriered to my Indian home address in Bangalore.
Now, I am not sure how to get my passport. As per Indian law we are not supposed to courier Passports Internationally. I am not aware of anyone who is coming to Canada shorty.
I am as tensed as you can imagine.

Can anyone advise on what actions can be taken legally to get the passport to Canada from India before October 7th?

ADR could be anything that's missing from the application or additional proof's.
Some were asked for more pictures if the pictures they initially sent don't please their eyes, Some were asked for communication and continued contact proof (mostly in cases of love marriage) and Some got ADR's for Divorce petition or Divorce Order, etc.,
So in a gist, they always contact the applicant (Sponsored Person via email or preferred method of contact ) or the authorized rep (like a lawyer) with their concerns even if they want additional docs pertaining to the sponsor.

How did you manage to send the passport to them initially? Did you not think about this situation then?
I know people in the past got their passports carried and delivered to them by trusted sources.
So look around ask in your work place or inner circle who is travelling or returning from India or maybe some Good Samaritan from this forum can raise to the occasion..anybody?

To answer question 1, processing time starts from the day the Visa Office receives your application.

I had sent my passport through one of my friends who was travelling to India in January. I never knew I will have an interview and also I didn't know when NDVO would send the passport - so didn't plan for it and I have myself to blame for it. I have been checking with quite a few in the company here - still haven't found one :(
