Hi forum members,

I am just wondering if there is a thread where step by step process of what happens during a sponsorship application is explained. If there is not one, may be there is a need to create one. I myself am new here, so lack the knowledge to create one.


Thankyou

  2. IRCC start processing application
  3. Receive Acknowledgement of Receipt (AOR 1)
  4. Link Application to Online Account
  5. Upload Schedule A form
  6. Sponsor Approval and File transfer to VO
  7. VO starts processing PR application (AOR 2)
  8. Receive Request for Medical Exam
  9. Medical Exam @ IRCC Panel Physician Clinic
  10. Medical Exam Result
  11. Passport Request (PPR)
  12. Pick-up Permanent Residency Visa (PUM)
Spousal sponsorship process completion time varies depending on the Visa Office and on a case basis.......will advice you assume process completion takes 12months to help reduce the waiting stress.......relax.....its a wait game.

Thanks for the info. In which step, police clearance certificate is checked?

Age of my pcc will already be 2 months at step 1. If pcc checked by vo at step 7 then is there any chance that they might ask for new pcc?

So once the medical has been submitted, I have to get a criminal check done, how long roughly does it take to complete my application after that has been submitted please?

What about an interview? There is also a security check (separate from the required Criminal Record Check) that is done, from my understanding. I don't know if there are any other steps not mentioned above.
 
Received first email from IRCC yesterday with subject "Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada: Information about Fxxxxxxxxx Correspondence Id: 1-xxxxxxxxxxx" which stated my UCI (Sponsor) and Application # (Applicant). Is this AOR 1?
 
4. Link Application to Online Account
>> Is this mandatory?
>> I would create it but my confusion is that should I use my existing login (which was created when I did my PR) and add this paper based application to it or shall I open a new account?
