You'll have to give us more information.

Is this a spousal application or a different family stream application?
Inland or outland?
What is the local processing office?

Hey proper Come on over and join us in the Kingston, Jamaica thread.

The sponsorship approval is taking about 38 days now, so you should receive confirmation soon that you have been approved if all is well with your application. From what I read in another thread, they are processing applications received up to Nov 25 now, so keep checking your mailbox!

At the KG thread you will find plenty of support and people familiar with that visa office as well as a warm welcome. Hope you'll join us
