Look under eligibility section, if something like 'review required' or 'interview recommended' is written; suggests the possibility of an interview.

I.e only if your file has already been gone through an initial review. You should also be able to find visa officers' comments in couple of last pages of your notes.
Thanks. Just checked. There is not any indication that they would want an interview. I was only concerned because I was a Feb 17 applicant and there was no contact or progress from them at all.

Is your application at CPC Mississauga? Hasn't it been transfered yet?

Also, isn't your medical done yet?

Hi Everyone,

When my husband went for his Medical exam in Pakistan, they said the procedure is going to be 90 days. Is this normal? The letter we received said that it needs to be done within 30 days, I dont know what to do. Does anyone know or can someone guide me on this?
Hi I want to explain you something if a person has tb history so his medical is taking 3 months after initial medical they are doing 3 days sputum test and after that they are checking sputum for next two months that there is any bacteria which is growing or not if everything is fine then they are passing the medical.

My application received date is 29 June 2016 .... after our nikah we did rukhsti after 1 year ... firstly we apply for visitor visa then spouce visa .... in this procedure we are late in applying for spouce visa ... otherthing is my profession ...
