Hello guys, I applied for submitted my spousal application on the 13th of May and got AOR on the 21st of June but since then no SA, BIL, or medicals. It's been almost a month after AOR and nothing. Is this normal? Thanks for your anticipated response(s)

yes, it is
Depends are u inland or outland ? Inland sponsorships seem to be getting done quicker. Aor within first month and some applications complete within 8-12 weeks. You have remember every application is different. I already had my biometrics and medical done before hand. Hence why my processing time has been a bit quicker

I'm outland. Aor came in pretty fast, < 2 months. It's been quiet since then. I see others getting BIL and SA within a week of AOR. I'm a bit worried

Don't be worried outland has been taking longer recently although it says its quicker that inland... I believe that 80% of inland applications are quicker than outland. If they was a problem they'd tell ypu what it is. You may just been unlucky and applied at a time where an influx of outland applications were sent into the office. If you get what I'm saying.

We have been stuck on the Principal Applicant's Eligibility/Background for the last 3+ months. Following the May 26th announcement, we decided to file a Dual Intent TRV application on June 26th. It's been about 3 weeks with no news on the TRV.

It's just a matter of patience, at this point.

I would follow up with IRCC and ask them why your eligibility is taking so long? Eligibility for principal applicant is about checking that your relationship is genuine and you're work experience is atleast satisfactory. So unless they is a problem with the genuineness of your application or they are having trouble confirming your work history. Inland applicants can attach they notice of assessment and you're taxes are filed with your partner. I'm not sure how its proved for outland like where you work and genuiness of relationship. Just a heads up I filed for an OWP after my aor in May and still haven't heard anything :/ so your TRV might take a while yet

Dependants
You must provide details about each of your family members, whether they will come with you to Canada or not. You must include your spouse or common-law partner, if applicable, and all of your dependent children, and those of your spouse or common-law partner, who are not already permanent residents or citizens of Canada.
You must also include details on family members if you don’t know where they are (even those missing or presumed dead). If you don’t list them on your application, you will not be able to sponsor them later if your situation changes.
When prompted, you can add more family members by clicking “Add dependants.” You can also click “Delete” to remove any dependants. If you do not need to add family members, click “No.” Once you are finished, click “Complete and return to application” to save this form and return to the main application page.

If you want to add or remove a dependent from your application, you must remove them from your profile page

COPR final validity is usually one year after date of medical, so that tracks.

And yes, your spouse can land any date before that. Obviously best not to leave it to the last day, just in case.

Wow your very lucky on how quick your application was processed and ye as long as she enters Canada before the COPR expires then ye. Probably better if she lands pretty soon after getting PR stamped in passport though. Why would you wait till December to come to Canada? If Canada is going to be her new home with you? Plus you as the sponsor are supporting and paying for her first 3 years in Canada. So quick she lands the quicker the process is to start and end
