I did not hear any thing after after 16 December , after second email on 5th December for the extra documents. First time sent on 13 November.

It’s like 7 week

Or is there any mistake in documents?

Any chance to get medical request or AIP ??

Thanks

As VO asked for extra documents on December so I guess you’ll receive pre arrival services letter this month . I don’t want to scare you by telling you my timeline :eek: but I think your family application going well until now and no need to panic as thier application just received before three months and the average time line is between 4 to 8 months. Hope you receive pre arrival services letter soon then medical request :)

In my case, my wife landing interview was one day after VO received forms. As I understand from you the VO already asked your family to provide extra documents so it’s mean thier application process start even you are not landing yet.

It was really difficult time for me and my wife and I lost hope many times and the only light was coming from this forum and members here who sharing their experience. I can not explain how I feel right now ,actually it’s mixed between happiness and exhausted from what I faced during application process. I‘ll share my timeline in details just for giving hope to who are waiting for application approve and everyone should know that not all the dependents overseas for permanent residents applications are the same , some cases get approval within few months and others could exceed 10 months or more because of many things like citizenship of applicant , visa office , case officer ,security check,....etc and all of these could effect the timeline of application process.

How can I pay for biometrics after I submitted my application?
To pay for your biometrics fee after you already applied:
