Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications 2016 timeline and updates

[profiler]

I will also froze just like your wife.. even starting now, I already so nervous... hahaha
they asked for some papers, like my husband work place letter stated how long he works and how much he earns .. (we forget to included that when we apply, we just filled in tax paper)

My husband also keep asking, like do you think they will put us in separate room and interview us? like that? hahaa

Tell him, it's like the way the banks used to be in the 1980s here. You're called up to a wicket, and you talk to them, like you would a teller at a bank -- or at Service Ontario. Not at all a relationship interview.

In fact, when my wife landed, they didn't even ask me who I was... I had to beg and hand them my DL

Have there been delays with processing applications recently? I feel like I've been calling up every week for the last month and still getting the same date for when the last applications were processed (currently Oct 28 2016). I'm getting so close to the AIP period that I can't contain my excitement!

Profiler sounds familiar...

Congrats! That's a landing. Not a relationship interview.

Thank you

That's a good news. I've been waiting to hear from you since your wife's incident. I hope they contact you for landing interview soon. Congrats.

Thank you "Les bleus". It all worked out exactly as you said, thank you again for your advice.
One question, if it says "Decision Made"on both sides, that means we are approved? Or it could still mean that a decision has been made and they are refusing the application?
