Congrats!! When did you first apply?
I sponsor, my wife (PA, morocco) applied in November 2019. Got AOR, got sponsor approval. She passed the biometrics, she did not receive a medical request yet. Ecas says: we began processing your file on January 15th. No updates since then. Still waiting on CSQ. Can anyone give me reassurance, or timelines for sponsorship for my spouse who is in Morroco.

So apparently there is has been movement for some people. That is good news!
So I tried to travel to Morocco but I could not find an organization that will give me PCR test results within 48 hours. I was told that if I will get my results in five business days after the test. For reference, I live in Victoria (I inquired about Vancouver as well).

I know there are flights from Montreal to Casablanca. How are people getting test results within 48 hours?

Hi they recently changed it to 72 hours...... don’t know if that helps. I’m also travelling there at the end of this month. I will be paying for my test to ensure that I get the results on time.

The 1 year mark and the progress bar are just estimates based on a 1 year processing time and have no relationship to your exact processing time. Sponsorship often took over a year Precovid so will take linger during covid.

I think the only way to ensure results on time is to book private testing. There’s a few companies that are offering mobile services that will come directly to you. It’s expensive but unfortunately necessary if we want to see our spouses.
I used ichor blood services. They seem offer service in major cities.

wow that’s some good news. My wife also got a call yesterday oct 5 from the Rabat and they told her that they will send her a letter by mail. Agent said: your medical is about to expire in december. Would you be interested to go before that date to Canada? She said yes of course. He said ok .. you will get a letter by mail. He confirmed her mailing address. And he said have a nice day. What do you think that letter could be ?!Did you receive the interview letter by mail?

Hi there,

as per the Moroccan airlines website ( the canadian french version), it is specified that the 72 hours deadline starts ticking from the time the results have been released and not from the time the PCR test was undergone.

you may wanna give them a call just to make sure.
