Hello all-

I keep checking every so often to see if anyone has had any news from CIC about their sponsorship approval - I submitted my husbands inland app in November 23 2016 and got an AOR fairly shortly thereafter that it was received and when I checked our Ecas it showed it was in process.

We submitted his OWP at the same time and while I know it'll be four months at least (the beginning or end of March) I thought we would've heard whether or not I was approved as his sponsor or not by now- just anxious I guess esp as hubbys getting serious cabin fever not being able to work.

I've told him to enjoy the time off as he's always worked 14 hour days 6 days a week at that as we both worked in the Hotel Industry before moving - but he says he needs to keep busy..and I get it sigh....but a cranky Jamaican man is not a pretty sight esp with a cranky Jamaican wife - well I get that way when he gets cranky - lol

Guess its hard for him when he takes me to work and then has to head home.... Come on CIC - esp as your MYCIC link doesn't work so I cant even try to see progress on his OWP....sigh

Hope you all have fab weekend - blessings and best wishes to all.

Oh girl, I feel your pain with this one!! :-\

We're a Guyanese couple; my husband was frustrated not being able to work or do much else for those 4 months.
We knew that was going to happen though, so we decided to apply in July so the waiting period would have been during the summer so at least we have the warmth and other things to keep us occupied.

The only thing that got his occupied was getting prepared for driving classes to get his license here on Ontario. Has your husband started that process?

Hang in there!

Looks like they just updated that. Called few hours ago and said Aug 31 2016...still thinking that year is meant to be 2015

I have a feeling its 2016. The voice after the say 2016 too...i m confused now....as long as i get my opw thats what matters most for now...it s hard not to work and just spend money

 

[hafeez syed]

when did you submited your application and how much time its taking for OPW

No they mean 2015....because December 2015 is just starting to hear first stage approvals. Thats what the date refers to.

Owp takes roughly 4 months and they dont report those.

Stick to this thread and the 2015 thread...to see where they are at. You can also watch the spreadsheet linked below. (Join it if not already on it). Just note that they started mixing up the order a bit so some 2016 did get processed already....but that's out of the normal order.

But yes, outland threads will confuse you. The reason the sponsor is approved quickly with those, is due to the file being sent off overseas for completion. Only the sponsor app is done in Mississauga.

I definitely will!

Hang in there!

He hasn't started that just yet but he has the book -he'll take two lessons as I did to familiarize himself with what they'll look for during the road test- he's busy with our 8 year old son and school as well but being a Mr Mom isn't his thing although he cleans way better than me! Lol

Does your husband have his owp? If so did he get it in 4 months or did u have to chase it?

Good Morning,

Does anyone have a hard time to link the application to MyCic?
I am trying for couple days , answered every question but it says CANNOT find my application.

When i check my application status , using the application number, last name ,dob and country it shows Application received but i cant link it to my account.

Any advise?
Thank you all

Do got have a representative? Also you say it found an app....generally when it says that you then have to click a button that says link on the screen. Or it says there is an app but cannot link due to having a rep

That is correct. They can link using rep portal. The best you can use is eCAS.
