I got SA and they wrote in SA that they have been transferred my file to New Delhi visa office

So that means my file already ready at Nrw Delhi. Right? Anyone tell me is that Right.

So anyone have an idea when I will get AOR 2 .
Please tell me who will get AOR 2 sponsor or a person to be sponsored in India.

Please guide me .

Yes once you get your SA the file is transferred to NDVO and its there.

AOR2 can vary, some get it in 2 weeks and some 2 months so in case its delayed there is nothing to worry about since you can be assured its transferred.

The applicant in India will get the AOR2

Hi, There is not harm in applying visitor visa and you should apply it. Few things need to be taken care:-
1) Support letter from Canadian Sponsor, Last year T4 statement, bank statement and job letter (optional)
2) Enough funds to show that you can take care of yourself without any government support
3) strong bindings to India to make CIC sure that person will come back to India after visit is over.
4) Job in India plays a great role in this, attach a approved leave application from the employer. This ensure CIC that person has some bindings to India.

My wife also applied and got it

God Bless

Hi,

Job plays a very strong role for Visitor Visa, any job. It ensure Immigrations that person is having some sort of bindings to India and will come back after visit is over. Attach approved leave application from the employer with visitor visa application.

Thanks alot for ur reply. But from the above mentioned things i have nothing much to show as my strong binding to india. Neither i am having any job.
So how would it go?

But ur points did help.
I just hope if i could also apply for it

1. PR application sent Sep 29, 2014
2. Application received by CIC Mississauga for Sponsorship processing: Oct 1, 2014
3. Sponsorship approval received: Jan 6, 2015
4. PR application is being processed at New Delhi Visa Office since Jan 21, 2015

As of Oct 19, 2015, my wife's ecas status says:
"In Process"
1. We received your application for permanent residence on October 1, 2014.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on January 21, 2015.
3. We started processing your application on January 21, 2015.
4. Medical results have been received.

Does the above look like standard processing times w.r.t. other applicants here? Did anyone receive any update from New Delhi Visa office for PR applications being processed since Jan 2015?

OP, the excel link in the first post is dead. Is there any other similar thread for 2014 applications?

Edit:
One thing that seems to be weird in my case is the "In Process Date" compared to others in the Excel sheet. Where do you guys see the updated "In Process Date" date?

Edit2:
Another thing to note is that I'm a Canadian citizen living in Canada, while my wife is Indian living with me in Canada as a Visitor.

It's better to apply once NDVO touches your file. Eg. Now NDVO is processing Oct/Nov 2014 files. The purpose is to check on the status of your spous's application.You should definately apply for the GCMS notes now.

Adivced to apply early if your Sponsorship approval is delayed..... and you need to request info about the sponsor and sponsorship.



How to apply GCMS / ATIP notes.

Only a person who is in Canada can request the notes.
If principal applicant is in Canada, he/she can request for himself and apply for free under Privacy Act.

If sponsor is requesting it on behalf of Principal applicant, you need consent form from PA and $5 fee. You can receive consent form from spouse thru email and upload it. Apply under Access to Information Act.

It takes about 30 days to receive by email. It is a ~30 pages document
