Good news!!
I just called CIC because I had questions as to why my application wont link to myCIC. As I as inquiring about that issue I also asked additional questions in regards to the process. So although the cap for spousal reunification is 47,000 for the year he said they still have not reached the cap yet and still need to fill it by the year which is a good sign for all of us sponsoring a spouse. He also told me Canadian immigration in Manila has been working a lot faster than usual so process can be shortened!!
He said to still keep in mind it may take up to a year but to be hopeful for a speedy process. He said my application looks complete on his end from what he saw and to just stay posted on next steps!
Anyways, since the new documents and process will be in effect soon I believe it is good on our end since they will begin to speed everything up. Im hoping for my husbands PPR end of this month or next month. Its a reach as i applied in october but I am hopeful!!
