Hi guys, i got some updates, hope it will help someone.

So what happened is that the Hong Kong office emailed me said they need a Canadian police check since i have lived in Canada for more than six months since i was 18.
The thing is that when i was doing my application, on their website, it states you might or might not need a Canadian police check because i believe if i have any criminal charges they would know
that; so i did not include the Canadian police check in my package. and i did not submit the police check when i received the AOR 2 document request(two month ago).

Now i suggest if anyone is having the same situation as i did, just go get that police check and mail it to the office, took me 10 minutes to get it. and i should have done it two month ago. instead of waiting all that long for them to ask for it. It might delayed my application for two months....you never know.
so please do yourself a favour, don't be lazy like i did.

Hey,

I didn't get any email from CIC regarding my SA approval. Also I hadn't got any email for my AOR, however when I called them about a week ago they told me that they already sent me my SA approval by email, which I never received. Today I noticed that I can check my application status online. My timeline is as follows:

Application sent: May-30-2016
Application received at Mississauga: May-31-2016
Application in process: June-17-2016
Sponsorship Approval: July-28-2016


My application has already sent to Ankara for the next round.

I used my application number (which I got it by phone) with sponsor information. Also for me it works with client ID of sponsor instead of the application number.

Good luck!

This is crazy..I tried all numbers on my work permit to jog in with combination of sponsor info as well as my info..no luck!
Called CIC talked with an agent who wasn't really helpful. I told her that I tried all the possible numbers on my work permit and nothing came up. she said" there may be system glitch"..I have been trying for 3 weeks not the first time though..

Anyway as soon as I hang up I typed my info,,boom..I accessed my application. only one line: application received.
She did something for sure during my call. it cant be just a coincidence .

Hello everybody, I am Brazilian and I am in Canada as a tourist, I came here because me and my boyfriend are getting married, what do we need to start the process? Also what does he need to "sponsor" me under marriage? How long time does it take? Do I receive an open work permit then? If we marry inside Canada, am I good to stay here until the process is done anyways?

Thank you,

In order to expedite the processing of your application, we are requesting that you provide the following as soon as possible:
• Proof of payment of your Right of Permanent Resident Fee (landing fee) to our office in Mississauga or by your sponsor in Canada, if not already paid. Note: dependent children are not required to pay the Right of Permanent Resident Fee.
• Submission of police clearance certificates for you and all dependent family members who are 18 years or older, for time spent in any country for a period of 6 months or more, if not already submitted. Note: If you or your family members were under 18 years of age (16 years of age in certain jurisdictions) for the entire time you lived in a particular country, you do not need to provide a police certificate for that country.

Just a quick question, PLEASE answer!

I live with my wife (Sponsor) in Canada.
I received my SA email today, but it says my application is sent to CPC-OTTAWA!
I expected it goes to Ankara Visa Office! Is that normal?!
I'm so worried now, they thought it's an inland sponsorship??
(I filled all the forms of outland application, ...)

no, sending it to ottawa does not mean they think it's an inland application. the process is completely different, and you would not have received the SA letter you got. CIC sends applications to ottawa they consider straight forward to help reduce backlog at other offices. This is a good thing, and might suggest you'll see approval much sooner.
