I have applied my spouse sponsorship in dec 2020. As recently I have log in into New PR Application tracker and its getting updated 4 times in the last 20 days but i did not see anything. Does anyone have an idea what is this happening as I wont see any change neither on GC account not on ecas . kindly share ur experiences.
Just ignore....is just a tracking telling you whatsapp....if they do truly do any updates uou will see them under the activity or history so relax and keep your eyes there

Hello everyone. I am a PR in Canada. I have applied for a visitor visa for my wife. Can she apply for the open work permit and PR while her visitor visa application is in the process?
How you feel you want to do it....go ahead. You can let her apply for visitors visa, and PR application all together but that will raise a dual intent flag....They can do both if they are outland or inland but as for open work permit, the principal applicant must be in Canada only before they can apply for SOWP....

Hello everyone, I have some questions regarding spousal sponsorship and any inputs and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am a CEC inland applicant and my PR is under process and it’s been 6 months now. My girlfriend is in India and we are planning to get married in March 2023. She also has plans of going to culinary school in canada for fall 2023. I know she has to apply for schools in December and once she gets the admit, she will have to apply for study permit. Considering we’ll be married by March 2023 and I will be a PR by then, what is the best option for her to go to? Is it study permit or me sponsoring her for PR and delay her study by one year? Is it possible to apply for both as Outland applicant? If that’s an option to apply for both, will they delay her study permit because she’s also eligible for PR and will IRCC give importance to PR application? What other options are there so that she can come to canada before her school starts in fall 2023? Lastly, she has a bachelor’s degree in electronics engineering and now she wants to go to culinary school. How will that affect her study permit application as it’s two different streams?

Thank you.
Do first things first and do the needful...At this point, you don't have PR so you can't sponsor her. Let her apply for the study permit and comes to study and when she comes, by then your PR will be in then you can sponsor her and then she can either go to school or stop schooling if she has her PR....Just do what will be best for you both

I have submitted my application on Dec 27 in online.i am the sponsor .I got an access in pr tracker on March 19. It's shows received application on March 16. No application no, no pA name.Is there anyone facing this situation.
I think is too early to be looking for application # or anything. Don't break protocol. It must go through the same process....There is a queue ahead of you and an officer has not touched or verified the completeness of your sent document yet thereby creating a file and giving you an application number....it has a sequence and processes....Just relax

Has anyone applied and received visitor/tourist visa for their spouse while the PR application is in process?

I just summitted spousal PR for my wife on 10th March and thinking to apply for her visitor visa after I get sponsorship approval so that she can visit me for summer.

Please share your experience and suggestion's. At what stage of the PR application did you apply for visitor visa?

Thank you

I am a PR and want to sponsor my wife who is currently not in Canada. She had a backlog in one semester in her graduation and didn't clear it. I am confused whether to include her graduation in schedule A background declaration (imm5669e) under education history or just show it under personal history since she had not successfully completed her graduation but was in college for the duration of four years. Will this mismatch between the education and the personal history section cause problem ?

1, Simple, she didn't graduate, so she can't claim the education.

My Two Cents: As education was not completed and certificate not issued, you will not mention it in education history, but in personal history, you have to mention the years so they are accounted for. After you have done that, explain the situation in a Letter of Explanation with supporting evidence, such as an admission letter, latest transcript, or drop-out letter.

It's irrelevant to 'claim' the education for a spousal sponsorship (it won't impact the evaulatioh of the application*) but I would say it should be included. Which is not hard, as I believe there is a field choice for post-secondary not completed or no degree anyway.

At any rate easily dealt with by adding a letter of explanation if any doubt.

This just my opinion.

*Note very different for other types of applications of course where your point would be absolutely best approach.

I'm the PA on a common-law PR spousal application (inland), I submitted an OWP as part of that process (currently implied status). There's a chance that I may need to travel to the US end of April for a work trip. If (fingers crossed) the OWP gets approved in the next week or so (November Inland Applications seem to be starting to get their OWP's approved (and I have the OWP in hand), will that (as well as ETA) be sufficient? As I understand, it would still be up to the POE Agent to decide?

Alternatively, if the COPR comes through soon, would I be able to travel and come back in on that (while waiting for the card to arrive) or would there need to be a PRTD that I need to apply for?
