I submitted mine August 31, 2018. My lawyer submitted for me. I live in Ottawa and the lawyer office in Toronto. My wife is from Venezuela. Hoping end of October or first week of November we hear something. I also went to see my wife again in September in Lima, Peru for 3 weeks. Got a chance to finally meet one of her family members that live in Lima now. Snapped pictures and submitted boarding pass, most updated police certificate and pictures of us having dinner with my wife cousin. Cause the situation of Venezuela, I can't even go visit her there cause so dangerous. Never got the chance to meet the inlaws. Went to see her in Margarita Island once and sealed the deal two years ago in Buenos Aires with civil wedding. Anyone doing sponsorship for venezuela. My wife applied for her most updated birth certificate in March 2018 I think and didn't receive it until September 2018. My wife surprised me with the birth certificate in Lima. Big fat middle finger to Maduro.
