It's a fast track for simple apps it seems. Lots of Indian and Phillipines apps appear to go there but not entirely. You'll only know when it happens, if it happens. It's the best case scenario for sure!
So sponsoring someone from Philippines the application may not necessarily go to the Manila VO?
Not necessarily. I've read lots of posts about it going to Sydney, local VO and then back to Mississauga though or just Mississauga or just Manila. You just won't know until it happens. Bright side...some have reported really fast timelines for Manila.
My fiancee has an interview at the Manila vo tomorrow as we r doing conjugal sponsorship so was curious if the officer could make a decision right there on the spot and if he does will the application have to go to mississauga
I don't see why it would. Definitely not a given. There have been cases of approval happening on the spot post interview, including getting passport stamped so you could be very close to the finish line tomorrow. But don't get excited about anything until it happens. It's great to be at the interview stage. Good luck!

Yes thanks! Very exciting and nerve wracking at the same time. Her interview letter asked for her to bring 2 pieces of ID. It didnt specifically mention to bring her passport in case of an approval on the spot. But in any case fingers crossed lol
Hi Sid,
She had her interview and the officer have her a month to submit further documents. We will submit them by next week. Will it take months to hear back from them? Or will it be a quick reply after we submit the documents?
Some people have reported hearing back very quickly and others believe they don't get back to the app until the 30 day deadline regardless of when they receive the paperwork. Quickest route would have been to take everything they asked for to the interview, unfortunately. Did she drop the ball on this or did they want something different??
No it was to do with documents about her kids. The officer said our relationship is not questionable at all it's totally genuine. The officer said we could have proceeded with the application without the further documents or we could provide the documents and go from there. So we will submit them next week and.hope it's not a long wait
Great news. We are all looking forward to the day when it's all just technicalities to come. Congrats on getting there. You'll be together soon enough
Well, neither of those examples are concrete evidence of cohabitation. Do you have lease docs with both names? Joint utility bills? Letter from landlord/neighbour/family? Things mailed to both of you with same address? Anything showing you actually live together from at least a year ago until now.
