Hello Everyone, Which original documents we have to send when applying or only we have to send photo copies
Please check country specific section for Pakistan on IRCC website, as CIC keeps changing these every so often. We did not send any originals but all docs had notarized photocopies. Once again, please check the website on latest most accurate information regarding document, proof of relationship and forms information.

My ECAS shows *Sponsorship Application Status* decision made but *Permanent Residence Application Status* in process. What does it mean?
It means a decision has been made regarding your sponsor approval. You will get Sponsor Approval email soon.
And now the main part of your applicant's file is under process. This is where they check if the marriage is genuine, do background checks etc.

I hope this answers the question.

Nope, there is literally NOTHING since April 11th so zero progress. No initial review, no group, etc.

From CPC mississauga, there is just one note where it tells the date of landing of sponsor (me) and relationship proof doc submitted (Marriage Certificate). All pretty generic stuff. This was at the time of sponsor approval.

I ordered notes on June 24th.
Some people have started getting DMs from 2017, and here you are with not even an initial review yet in 3 months. Hopefully since they sent you notes they have started working on it.

This makes me wonder, how much time do they actually spend accessing the application and how much time does our case sit idle collecting dust at LVO. Looks like once they start working on it its a matter of a few weeks if not a couple to 3 months. Looks like shortage of staff is the most common delay. Well unfortunately all we can do is wait. I ordered GCMS notes too on July 16, I will share with you all if I see anything on mine once I get them in Aug (hopefully).

They asked me to send 15 to 20 additional when i sent them 20 only .. it was veryyyy hard to choose just 20 out of 100s .. so .. go ahead and send them as many as u like .. just make sure it covers all ceremonies ..
Did CIC Mississauga ask for more pics or was it LVO?

We sent in 9 pages of whatsApp screen shots with four screenshots per page, 2 screen shots from the same month. We added Instagram and Facebook profile pages where we have declared each other as spouse. We also sent in 20 pics (one of which was us signing our marriage form and one exchanging rings, the rest from rukhsati, valima, and family dinners, most of our pics were with family and friends just a few of us alone, shopping, at the beach, dinner dates etc). The more proof you give the better. I would recommend adding more pictures. We also sent in, as part of our application, more pics to give additional evidence of our relationship which included some 52 extra pictures. You could also send in any money transferred between you and your spouse.

So my suggestion to you is send in, if not more, at least as much evidence as requested.

Regarding wedding card that is always a good idea. try to include your wedding hall receipt also or any other expenses incurred, dresses, jewellery, shoes etc. You dont need to send in your educational documents.

Red flags or any unusual thing will be mentioned in the Officer's comment section in GCM notes. Like in ours, it mentioned that intent of sponsor to return to Canada was not clear.
Kindly tell me what did you provide them regarding the intention of sponsor to return to Canada?

If applying for spousal immigration and both sponsor and principle applicant has done marriage second time, does CIC needs previous divorce certificates of Sponsor or Principle applicant?
