Parent Sponsorship - Not heard in 5 months after submission

[rdutter]

My mother's sponsorship application was submitted on 24th May 2018.

It has been 5 months but I haven't heard from Immigration Canada yet.

Any feedback would be very much appreciated. Thanks

Long times without hearing from CIC is not unusual. You can call if you want but if you have been monitoring your email (if you are the representative) and account you are probably fine.

Appreciate all the responses but do you get some sort of an acknowledgement from them? Is there some way to know if they have begun processing the file or do they just pick up the file one day within 24 months and start processing it and then the clock starts after they start processing it.

How long does the whole process take from submission to outcome? Do we have an excel sheet somewhere on the forum where such applications are being tracked?

Are you the representative? Have you been checking you spam folder? Sponsorship times have gotten much faster in the past 2 years. I would look through the PGP postings there is an excel sheet.

As you can see, plenty have not received AOR. Also not the complete list. Given that it used to take 4 years to sponsor, this still fast processing.

Have you heard anything else? Like medical request?
