No harm in trying. You've already got AOR AND SA.

yes but don't know if it will be approved cause I applied once on the same basis but at that time I only had AOR.
There are many instances here, in this specific thread, where applicants with Aor and some without AOR got TRV.
Some are getting it within 20days!!

Id still suggest that if you haven't tried once (you have to live life and try it once....YOLO?).
You should send the trv application.
CIC is ambiguous and purposefully avoids creating patterns - otherwise applicants will learn it and start gaming the system.
Thats why i have stopped finding logic and policies behind CIC visa process, timelines and decisions.

I applied for my wife’s TRV on
5th July
BIL 5th July
Biometrics given on 8th July
BVL & Refusal on 12th July
Super doper fast refusal
I guess AI Chinook made initial assessment and VO didn’t even bother spending anytime on file

Applied after getting AOR on spousal PR application
PR app submitted: 4th June
AOR: 26th June
Found another applicant who got rejection in week’s time as well
Thinking of going for JR
Will talk to MP this week, if he can talk to IRCC and see if he reopen the file or reconsideration request

Just checking to see if there is another applicant from Pakistan who got rejection of TRV after applying for spousal PR application

Thanks

So u must have applied somewhere in Fall of 2022?
And you got PPR in July 2024??

Most applicants in this thread should expect 18-24 months timeline....or raise their voice collectively or individually tagging their MPs, Marc Miller and other concerned individuals that why do applicants have to suffer at the hands of LONDON VISA OFFICE. If other offices are processing within 7 months, cic is posting 10 months....then why applicants from this thread have to wait for 20 MONTHS??

Are their hidden policies in effect for citizens of certain countries, or their occupational background (NOC) acts against them....
This needs to be clarified. MP office has NO CLUE and are completely in dark about CIC. So your communication campaign needs to target Minister Marc Miller and CIC staff spearheading such policies.

Take action now. Twitter, Youtube, insta or Facebook campaign....soundbites of people frustrated with variation of processing times, silence from cic and seemingly discriminatory processing times based on origin....we need to highlight that...pool money, get backing of few tri-partisan MP, supporting this campaign on video, questioning CiC, and some digital media + campaign wizards should volunteer their time and expertise to execute this campaign.

The BLACK BOX attitude of CIC needs to be put under scrutiny. Trackers give you static outdated, sometimes wrong info. Call centers do not have info about applications in London Visa Office. GCMS takes 30 days to sent out....WTF??? This is 2024 or 1985?? Who are the top officers, who are the case officers? Their age, education and exposure to immigrants.

Petition to Canadian Parliament...


Only 327 signed till today..Can we make it to 1000?
Doesn't matter which province u r from...pls sign it!!
..
July 25th is expiry... Send it to anyone you know who applied, and is either waiting or has waited longer than processing times..
A day later, only ONE person signed. If we can't convince our own family and friends to sign a digital petition for us, which requires least effort and no money, this tells something about our commitment to make any change.
