I got this method from 2017 thread by @ZhabaHulk

1. Call ---> first goes language preferences, you listen to it, then the lady starts to talking about parents and grandparents program and blah-blah-blah.. Once she starts offering you all dial options ---> press 2;
2. Then she switches to talking about sponsoring or smth like that ---> press 1 immediately.
3. She: "You want to sponsor your spouse?" ---> press 0 right away, do not wait until she finishes the speech.

Some try the citizenship options too

Brilliant! I tried the citizenship line the last couple times like Profiler suggested and it worked fine...it put me through to PR...but I got a little slap on the wrist! The agent said to call thru the proper channels next time and not go thru citizenship. I explained that when I did that it didn't give me an option to reach somebody and he didn't seem to care much! LOL

There is another way, you know.... once I started using this way, I never had to call the call centre again... But it would mean you'd probably want to drop your rep ;)
 
Does anyone know what dates they are processing now? Half of the year has already ended. Time flies so fast. Lol :)

They are working a sliding window currently. Cases from March are basically done (sans a few). Cases in September are starting to get medical requests. Looks like the sweet spot is ~June..

Morning profiler and everyone

Been posting to another thread for a while and no answer.

Am sure my question was already ask and answer but here goes again.

1.In my country my electoral ID is our national Id we apply for it after turning 18. It only has a issue year and a expired year. There is no month or dated. Do I still include it in my application.

2. Before living my husband in Canada my financial support was western union. Do I include those receipts as evidence prior to living with him now.

3. I am submitting my work permit with my application. I do know that the work permit goes on top. But wgere do I checklist and bars codes and payment receipts. What order do they follow for both application.

P.s I organize the forms and supports using the checklist. I just don't know what

Good morning! How are ya? Sorry to hear that you aren't getting answers. Sadly, I don't have the time to roam the forum looking for questions to answer any more. I am happy to do my best otherwise.

1/ Which country?
2/ Does that mean he was sending you money via Western Union? That's just a money broker service.
3/ When we submitted, we used the big-black paperclips to separate our application packages. As long as the checklist is on the top, followed by the barcode page (if memory serves), that should be sufficient.

Have you not filed yet??

I think they skipped May, lol...Im trying to remain patient
 
I got a landing interview date! - not even a month after SA and AIP. - our app was received in May of 2016, medical requested in March.

DATE: 10/07/2017 - Etobicoke

Since I got this message today I assume 10/07 is October 7 not July 10.

Sweet! Congratulations! That's superb news

As @kokopelli mentioned earlier. I do suspect they are being a little more careful on US applicants. That said, they would likely focus a little more on applications from 2017 (before that, they would have been fleeing both candidates). But I don't think it will take too long for them to get back to you :).

*crossing fingers*...last week hubby predicted today would be the day, still waiting, lol
On another note, I did get to the post office, nada in the box, you said the landing letter wouldnt be there, but I had to check, just-in-case, lol

Haha! A valid concern.... I was shocked to hear Winnipeg is sending landing invites by snail-mail!

Remind me of your timeline again ... we can see how close I think your husband was...

It's saying July 10th on the automated response but it seems like they're in between late March and first week of a September.
