You need to be fully prepared for your interview.  Since you already know Section 4 is the big issue, be prepared with lots of proof that the two of you spend time together, spend time with each other's families, that you genuinely are in love and did not marry her to gain status in Canada. 

If the officer is satisfied by your answers at the interview, your passport will be requested for stamping with the visa, then returned to you with your COPR so you can land.  How long that takes is entirely up to Kingston, and I can tell you they work on their own schedule, there is no use in guessing based off someone else's experience.

If you want some company while you wait, please join us at the KG thread:

Hope to see you there. Smiley

if your case is routine then in 4-6 weeks you should have it back a friend of mine got hers back right at the 4 week mark n she had a pretty routine check on the KGN thread there has beebn cases of Passport being held for a long time but that was a special case so it depends on how straight forward your case is

be expected to answer questions about your spouse and their life in canada where they work salary any family members if no 1 attended the wedding why not and why should they grant u a visa basically right now they dont believe ur marriage is real u now have to prove urself and that ur marriage is real so u need to know ur spouse and know what u wrote on the application as thats where the questions will be driven from, if ur spouse was married why was there a divorce do u know the kids where u inted to live etc, u may get an easy or "mean" IO so be prepared be truthful n remain calm they expect u to be nervous so dont worry

Have a look at the questions on the file in this link.  http://www.ece.ualberta.ca/~jgill/documents/immi/interview_S_F_class.pdf

You should be comfortable answering any of these questions.  Also, make sure you review with your wife the application you submitted, so you are familiar with all the information on it.

Remember, these are not trick questions, these are questions designed to evaluate how well you know your spouse, how well you know each other's circumstances, how genuine is the story you submitted of how you met, how your relationship developed and how you came to the decision that you wanted to spend the rest of your lives together. 

Expect questions relating to the home you lived together in while you were in Canada, questions relating to even intimate things like what kind of birth control you use.  I'm not kidding, and don't take the questions personally, the Immigration officer is just doing his job.  Remember, they do not believe you have a genuine marriage, so you must convince the officer that you know your wife as a person, why you love that person and that you want to be with her not because she is Canadian, but because she is the person she is.  It is not enough to use vague terms like "she's a nice person or a good person", be prepared with specifics from your relationship with your wife.

It is expected you will be nervous.  Don't worry about that too much.  Also, if your wife can make it to go with you, that would be a good idea.  If not, tell her to keep her phone handy.  They may not call her, but you never know.  Even something as simple as saying, "If you would like to contact my wife, she has made arrangements to be available during this interview today" can cast a positive light on a questioned relationship.

You already know what they are questioning, and you have 6 weeks or so to prepare.  Get ready for this interview together, even though you will be the one attending it.  Have proof of continued contact between the two of you in the period since you returned to Jamaica, phone bills, MSN chat logs, letters, cards, whatever.  Bring photographs if you have any, especially if she has been here to see you since then or plans to visit you before the interview, also copies of flight itinerary/boarding passes.
