Yes one year is a lot of time and quite valuable for younger folks. CIC probably has to modify the process/policy.

Just my two Cents lol..

1) Grant a TRV for spouse. No PR. Grant Open Work permit
2) Monitor the relationship in Canada for 1 Year - Ask proofs of ongoing relationship
3) Grant a Conditional PR for 2 Years or reject
4) Monitor the relationship - Ask proofs of ongoing relationship
5) Grant a full PR or reject

There can be loop holes in this process but can be streamlined and made stable.

The biggest downside is that an inland person can find a few other options to avoid deportation. Cost is another factor but fees can be hiked to cover costs.
its a good idea ,but our people can also destroy this idea if applied ,bcoz as we can see ,,in news a recent case "a canadian women s sister married to her father in law to reach canada ,,these kinds of fraud marriages keep on happening in punjab and immigration is gettin strict and strict and becoming a problem for genuine relationships,,,still no solution

everyday we woke up with new hope..but when i saw nothing updates..rest of the day seems dull >:(

Yep and we start feeling helpless... Out of curiosity, I wonder how long other country take for this kinda visa.
 
Any 2015 applicants who has received ADR got any response after submitting the additional documents?
 
at least CIC let us know that ur file will be processed by or after this date or month and in that time ur file keep on processing each day !!
 
guys please be a little positive, think of the 2014 people who still havent got dm and have to undergo interview. we all are in the same boat. i dont know how u will go through the entire process with this negativity. its gonna exhaust u, be creative, enjoy this time as a courtship phase. its all about your perspective, how u look at things. cribbing is not going to reduce the time your file will take to process. keep urself busy with stuff. ideal mind is devils workshop. make a plan what u gonna do in canada, its not like u will be going on vacation, we gonna live there so plan ur career ahead, get studies evaluated. take up some course, learn something, do certifications or something that can help u in future.. else ur laptop as ur teacher. their is so much stuff on google and youtube. u can find complete tutorials. its in ur hand how u spend this time. u can divert ur energies into something positive or u can wait this opportunity and waste it.......... i also might have not utilized it to the fullest but still i have done something that i can help my career. so not talking in air or something......

NDVO officials are doing their work, its hard for them as well. u need to understand that they get so many applications annually and earlier like any other country canada also used to grant spouse pr in 4 - 6 months. but its because of Indians especially north Indians that they have to be cautious... cant put all the blame on them.....
