I don't know what NDVO is doing, two of my friends applied under express entry category four months back and they have already received request to submit their passport. In just four months express entry process is complete. As per Canadian family immigration, spouses are given highest priority after adopted children but if they are issuing PR in four months under express entry then how come priority is given to family class.
It is quite obvious that spouses are least priority for them, they are busy in issuing PR in other categories.
