My wife (PA) received AOR yesterday, and I (Sponsor) still don't receive mine. Can I link our application creating a myCIC account using my name?
Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications 2017 timeline and updates
- Thread starter mcrystald
- Start date
Ok so AOR received as well as schedule A letter in mail uploaded and confirmed sending of schedule A documents but they still say they need more documents. Someone may have answered this before but is this a glitch or is it I just have to wait until they confirm its gone through to them or should I call them ?
you can link it by creating your own account. thats how i have done it, i am the sponsor
I did the same as you so you're ok. I don't think they're crazy strict about where the bar code pages end up as long as it's there. you'll be ok
thanks. that's good to know. I received AOR (i'm the sponsor) but my wife didn't get anything so i'll try to create an account/link tonight. Cheers!
Thanks Pearl1 and inlandPRfeb17. You gave contradictory replies. I hope someone else can elucidate this issue.
It’s comes authomatical, check it up on your CIC account, if you have linked up your application.
I
am using a representative and hes told me that theres nothing yet in the linked account except for the AOR. I've submitted an OWP application too, will there be another AOR for that too?
No AOR for OWP but you can link the application for updates.
I send my spouse application and open work permit on Aug 17 and today I got returning both applications.
Reason: IMM5406 additional family information- incomplete field(missing info about spouse + parents)
I was very confused and ask friend’s lawyer but it is mistake.
My wife currently visitor visa until Nov 4.
I’m very headache about this.
Please anyone help me.
please check my additional info or not....
Question1:
Additional family information-
Section A
Applicant: sponsored person(my wife)
Spouse: sponsoring (Me)
Mother: sponsored person’s mother
Father: sponsored person’s father
Section B: Not applicable
Section C: my wife have 1 brother. He already married in S. Korea and didn’t shows her family relationship certificate.
Question2: After add missing info and resend this application. Do I need to wait same time over 7 weeks and get AOR?
Question3: I heard on working permit processing time around 4 months. What I need to do this time. My wife visitor visa expires on November 4. This is 6 months from her entering Canada

firstly dont panic .... if you apply today for visitor visa extension its the same form you used for the work permit then you wont have any issues with her staying beyond the 4th november because you will be on implied status.
secondly work closely on filling in exactly what they ask you to to resubmit and im afraid it could be 4-6 weeks again before you hear the most important thing at the moment is you apply immediately for an extension to the visitor visa.
I got my work permit exactly after 2 months and 25 days from the date we sent our application
I created a myCIC account with my information (sponsor) and used the UCI provided in the AOR that my wife received. And it worked, I was able to link our application, so it can be done.
I am not a lawyer but I will try to help you. I opened my own application (I got nothing returned back and already got my OWP so I am guessing I have filled it up semi-right).
Section A:
Applicant, Spouse - try putting in Martial Status of both of you - "Married-present" - in the guide they ask you if your wife and you were physically present at your wedding so the present would indicate that you were physically present at the ceremony (unless it was different).
Her mother and her father - their FULL names in English and in her native language, their place of birth, martial status and current address
Section B:
Not Applicable - meaning you and your wife don't have any children together or "separately" . I would also suggest filling up the table and all the rows with the word Not Applicable in this section. I have been told that leaving blank spaces might be taken as a mistake so I think it is better to fill that section up with Not Applicable - just to be safe.
Section C:
I think mentioning her brother is just fine, you don't need extra proof that he is your brother or that he got married. Fill the table with his name, their relationship - brother, date of birth, place of birth and his martial status I am guessing he is married.
Q2: From previous posts - I believe you have to wait again to get AOR but I think it might be faster - approx 4 weeks or so.
Q3: The IRCC wants you to maintain your visitor status BY YOURSELF so if she does not get the OWP on time (mine took less than 3 months to complete) she will have to apply for the visitor visa extend 30 days before her visa expires. I am not sure if she needs a visitor visa or she just simply gets a stamp in her passport at the airport but from my personal experience (Toronto, Ontario) as a person who needs only an eTA to enter Canada I could extend my stay for another 6 months by simply going to the airport and asking the officer for the extension (aka another stamp in my passport) which would extend my stay. If she does, simply apply for a visa extension (as a new online application) around 30 days before hers expires. I believe during the waiting time she gets an implied status till the decision on the new application is made. I would recommend looking that up.
