if you just got a reply from November, and I had to resend mine in on December 9, I have quite a wait ahead of me.

Hi everyone! Newbie here :)

I'm a Canadian who married a Bengali who is currently studying in the USA. So I'm here living with him in the States temporarily until he finishes. We applied through family class as if we're both living outside Canada (which we are).

Our application was received on November 5th and we still haven't heard anything yet.

Will they be sending an acknowledgement email to myself (sponsor) or to my husband (principal applicant)?

Its taking about 6-8 weeks to hear back and take into account the holidays... it could take a bit longer so not to worry at this point. They will send an email to pa and to the rep if there is one

Hey Guys!

New to the thread also! Our app seems to be handled a bit strangely already..

It was received on Nov 11th and we were waiting on an AOR1 as we thought this was the next step. However, I've (the principal applicant) today received an email out of the blue with a police check cert request and our Schedule A. We've managed to link our account as the email confirmed our unique identity number but there's nothing else from them to confirm that our app has been received (bit strange).

No request for medical as of yet, and it currently says no interview or biometrics are required but i'm aware that may change...

Will keep updating as and when i hear!

Also - i am from the UK so my VO will most likely be London!

Good luck to everyone! Hopefully it will go smoothly [FINGERS CROSSED!!]

Not sure about the Use of Representative form. I am the sponsor and sent the application package to IRCC few days ago. My spouse (Principal applicant did not submit the use of representative form). Does that mean that the application will be returned?

can the sponsor create the online account and link the application?
Yes but only if you use the information of the Principal Applicant, set it up in their name. Then after you set up a GCKey account and you enter information to link the app, you have to use the PA's info (name, birth date, passport number, etc).
