I have already landed in Canada. Just here to maintain the spreadsheet and assist newbies.
ohh. sorry. I must have forgotten that you already landed.

BTW. This volunteer effort is a huge help to others. hats off to you. In your exp managing this spreadsheet. if you compare your timeline to current applicants. What do you think there is any improvement or its the same time frame still? From what I read LVO and CPC are again backlogged.

These days you read all kinds of stuff on forums.
- People saying that they updload digital copies and CPC never tells them if they are correct or not for months.

CPC is backlogged for sure. In 2017 its taking longer to transfer files to the visa offices 1) new process involves CPC-M evaluating the completeness of the application, requesting for Sch A, PCC, medical. 2) work load
LVO has a lot of applicants apart from Pakistan: UK, Norwegian, Philipines, Ireland, Scotland, etc so its a very busy visa office. The new applications (2017) should be processed faster than previous years however LVO'S times varies at different times of the year. The majority of DM's & PPRs have been seen in May, June and Nov, Dec.

yes I read your post about it afterwards also. It's not very clear why they were refused. Must be so tough!
They don't clarify much in the refusal letter. Have to order GCMS notes for details.

Our ECAS status changed to in process on May 19. Our file was transferred to London on May 24. The 'we started processing' line appeared on June 06, but in the line it says we started processing your application on May 31st.

I think your file is on its way to London. Congrats :)

Download the document checklist as it keeps getting revised. The required documents will be mentioned there. Go through the instruction guide, it will tell you what you need to provide.

Nadra marriage certificate is in Urdu & English. You must also provide the Urdu Nikkah Nama and its certified english translation.

Order GCMS notes to see their specific concerns and yes you can provide proof of relationship (communication, pictures ) to show that your relationship is genuine.

I dont know if u can re-submit a form without request.

Can u share your timeline in detail?
