SPONSOR PREGNANT WIFE DUE FOR DELIVERY/VISA PROCESS DELAY

[yosibarnes]

Hello

I would like to seek your opinion on my visa application process. I reside in Ghana and my wife is in Regina, Canada. She applied for a spousal sponsorship for me in March, 2014. The visa office here in Ghana sent an email stating my visa appears ready and requested that I send them passport and other documents which I did on 30th June, 2014. I got the email from the visa office on the 26th June, 14. On the 7th of July they requested that I fill a new IMM 5669 background and history of applicant form, which I filled and sent it via courier the following. That have acknowledged receipt of what they requested but it's been almost 2 weeks and I haven't heard any word from them. My wife is due for delivery of our first child. She's in her 38th week, so baby can come couple of days from now. Was wondering what to do as I want to be with my wife before she delivers. I thought once they requested for my passports, it was a matter of getting my visa in about a week. Should I send them an email. The online status shows in-process. Need your help. Thanks and hope to hear from you.

You should likely join this thread here http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/thread-for-acrra-ghana-applicants-t64640.0.html for more information regarding your particular VO. However, by looking at the timelines you are stating, you are a long ways off from being issues a visa as of yet. You stated that your wife just applied for you in March 2014. I am assuming that she has already received sponsor approval and your application is now in Accra Ghana. If this is the case, then the listed processing times for that VO is 15 months. I don't know if they request your passport early on in the process, which might be the case. You should join that thread I listed here and ask your question there. Those folks will know more than I do in regards to Ghana.
