I hope my application don't take 2 years... ( I'm with my wife for 6 years) and people getting married without know each other a week, with no pictures.... getting their spouses PR in 6 months...
Sounds very stupid for everyone that I say that.

Sorry guys, but sometimes it make no sense.

I agree. Been together with my husband 6.5 years---although married for just over 15 months. known each other 14 years. We have such a basic app, provided lots of photos and backup and it is hard seeing the others get it so quick.

You knew the processing time before you applied. If you wanted a 6 month processing time (highly unlikely anyway), you should have applied outland. How do you know these other people have only been married 1 week and have no pictures? I'm happy those people are getting their application completed so that the queue is reduced and the agents can start processing ours.

I was also told by that lawyer I consulted that inlanders have a higher approval rate. The rate CIC states is 85%. The reason is they have to spend the time waiting together in Canada.

Hey all!

I'm new to this forum, i have few questions if anyone could enlighten me it'd be much appreciated.

What is the job of CPC Mississauga? Do they approve anything before sending your application to Vegreville or they just check that your application is complete?

Application sent on the 1st of April 2016. AOR received the 20th of April and around June they requested a police certificate to be sent to Vegreville.
CRC received by CIC Aug 12.

CPC-V used to do all the permits, after doing inland PRs (it's a terribly slow office). CPC-M does virtually all the processing now for inlands, and they get sent to local VOs inland to issue or interview. CPC-V backs up CPC-M when load gets high.

That said, I believe CPC-V did all the security and criminality checks for inlanders this year.

Many have had to send PCCs to Vegreville this year. ..

Think about it: You have to live together in Canada, right? Where outland, you are applying for someone who is related to you who is overseas. The lawyer explained that the visa officers do see the context that the application is being made in. That's why you will find that people who are married and file inland might get asked for cohabitation proofs, but usually after that it's smooth sailing...

Makes sense to me anyway ;)

Well, my wife and I know each other since 2013. So, we know each other enough that we felt comfortable marrying...
