****October 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship****

[wsidd]

Wll be joining you guys! They received our application October 15! waiting game

you can enter in the spreadsheet if haven't yet : https://secure.cic.gc.ca/feedback-retroaction/feedback-retroaction-eng.aspx

I've noticed October has much fewer inland applicants. Not sure if people are missing the spreadsheet or less applications in general.

Dumb question but do we get notification they received it or is that just the day the courier delivers?

Hi Everyone,

Sorry to bother you with the same question, I just wanted to know what was done with the fees, as discussed and I could see there is a 10$ increase in the fee for Right of permanent resident fee 490$ to 500$ remaining fees are same(Total :1380 $ including Biometrics + OWP). Did you all request for a refund and then repaid it or retained the old payment sheet and reapplied. Kindly let me know what has to be done as i am yet to submit my returned application.

sorry I have no idea what is this spreadsheet about.

it's to track the progress of applications both inland and outland. at the bottom are monthly tabs and you can see when each application hits each milestone in the process.

Thank you. I just saw it now. So did they email you guys to do biometrics to those who applied first week of october it seems most of you guys got a reminder for biometrics?

they are sending a generic reminder to pay the bio fee, that's it.

Did any October applicant get Temporary File no by calling to IRCC call center?

Only now I noticed that I used 2 outdated Forms IMM_5406e 09-2018 (updated 08-2020) and IMM_5669e 11-2018 (updated 06-2019). Will this delay the processing and make them return my application. The forms in the Guide that I used weren't updated yet. Thanks for the reply.

there is ongoing debate on when exactly these forms were updated. many people seemed to have downloaded as late as mid September and still got the old versions. there is also talk of there being a grade period in which the older versions are still accepted. we'll just have to wait and see unfortunately.

This is a relief. Thank you for the clarification and immediate reply.
