Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications 2017 timeline and updates

[Danish1371]

Damn! December applicants already getting DMs! Good for you my friend! Congrats!
I am October and havent received anything.. I know this is only gonna get lots of people more upset or anxious about their PRs
I will just chill, have a beer and wait patiently for any news

I agree !! Congratulations.... but counting down the final days to the 12 month mark with nothing moving is frustrating
I need to meditate or something, but beer works too lol.

Same here... on my cic account as well just say ll message once it starts and just doing background check since feb.... ugh !

ok, so yes, they now include it to the SA letter. But you see, they say "if... if you have chosen to defer payment...". As you paid for it already, you don't have to worry about it.

Thank you so much！！

Congrats! Did you get a letter/PDF for Approval In Principal or Decision Made? What office did it say at the bottom, out of curiosity?

No still didn't received anything. hopefully soon! i think it will be transferred to Montreal office since I applied from Quebec.
Will update you once i receive any new document.
Good luck!

Still those countries usually do not induce really longer processing time, they are all collaborating well with CSIS. Best of luck anyway! I understand the feeling, but stay positive. This is only a matter of time.

Hi,

i know its a silly question, is background check is related to PCC only, because in our case they did not ask for PCC yet? is it mean they will start working on background check when they receive PCC(India).

app received- 21 nov,
medical request- 23 june

no, what is referred to background check by the CIC account typically includes background, criminality, and security checks. Background includes whether you are in the relationship you described, whether your story seems true or not. Criminality is mainly the PCC. Security is deeper, done between secret services; are you a threat for terrorism, are you close to organisation trying to overthrow a government,... This is what can be much longer to process and for which the delay doesn't only depend on Canadian authorities.
Still, it's a bit strange to me that they did not request your PCC yet.

Its the same with us. They never requested PCC. We have attached Canadian PCC but not PCC from our home country. Ours is Nov 16 application.

No they haven't. Makes me worrynow if it may go more longer because of this
