Hi All,
I am a PR, and I am in the process of arranging documents for sponsoring my wife who is currently living in India.
Please advise if notorising the documents is compulsory for the declaration to be submitted by the principal applicant, sponsor and friends/relatives?
Due to COVID and lockdown in India we are not able to get the documents notarized.
Thank you!

Hello All,

Hope everyone is safe and healthy during this hard time. I want to follow up with my spouse application file. I submitted her file on March 3rd/2020 but since then I have not got any update regarding her application. I don't know what is the next step and IRCC is still working on the files which was submitted before this Pandemic. can anyone help me with this matter? I really appreciate your time and effort.

Thank You.

Hi

1. You then should receive A notice of receipt about 2/3 months from Sydney that the application was received and if you are eligible to sponsor.

Hello every body,
This is one year and four months that our spousal sponsorship application is in process, all necessary documents had been submitted on time. We were expecting finalizing and getting visa before covid19. Last update before covid19 were told that application is in London visa office and transferred to assigned officer for review.

I’m in Afghanistan and my husband is a PR Canadian. I do not know why it is too long! When IRCC is going to finalize in process applications?
Thanks for your understanding and help!

A lot of delays are due to the applicant's country not responding in a timely manner. Afghanistan apps are known to go well beyond a year.

People have been getting updates but not near the normal pace before Covid, everything will take longer, they are working at greatly reduced staffing. It is a time for patience.

Did you submit an application for PR+OWP? And if yes what was your status in Canada?

Or was it a SOWP application as a spouse/common law partner of a worker or student?
