Spouse Sponsorship (inland) 2011

[PanEva]

Hi, currently I have sent my inland spouse sponsorship last year. Currently, my status is still "Received on Nov. 02, 2011. I'm Canadian and my wife is applying for permanent residence. I received a letter on Jan 18, 2012 for add background check. Summarized as follow:

Medical Exam: Oct. 15, 2011
Payment sent: Oct. 27, 2011
Application sent: Oct. 30, 2011
Application received: Nov. 02, 2011
Add background check: Jan. 18, 2012
Current status: "Application Received"

I have a questions to ask:
1). My wife currently has worker VISA (Category: W-1) which expire on 05/09/2012. Can/should I extend her VISA? (I have also sent an open working permit with the sponsorship application together)

2). I have another question but only to people who sent in application during 2011:
How many people already got the status "Accepted"? and you got it, when you got accepted?

One last question to double check:
3). Does it require income evaluation (on me and/or my wife) for spouse sponsorship?

Thank in advance for answering my questions and solving my concerns.
