    ***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    I got an email confirming that my COPR has been issued today! :) I'm from a visa-exempt country, so the letter states that I won't be needing to send my passport, but I'll have an electronic foil for my passport. Any visa-exempt London applicants can give an estimate on how long does it take to...

    I checked my ECAS today and it changed to Decision Made! It's surprising given that my background check was updated to have started last Wednesday. However, I had already submitted all background checks for myself and my closest family back in June. Maybe that's why it was faster, not sure...

    Best idea is to call them and ask if they maybe need more documents? Also, what does your gckey status say now? Do you have a line stating 'we need more documents ' there too?

    It's in your gckey status. If your status states under background check category. Screenshot of mine for reference. Hope this helps

    Finally my background check changed to in process status!! I updated my signature, but if someone could update spreadsheet fro others, that'd be great. Anyone can advise how long does BGC take on avarage for LVO?

    Many thanks for such an informative reply! :) All information you provided is extremely helpful. I'll read about the GCMS notes and mostly likely apply for them just to be up to date as much as possible. After applying, how long does it take to get the notes? When it comes to communications...

    Hi all, First of all congrats to everyone who is so close to getting or got COPR! I have a few of questions. My file was transferred to London VO on July 25th. I passed my med exam and got a message about it (and update on gckey) on July 27th. My gckey states 'in progress ' for both...

    Same story with the medical exam request for me lol. Asked my MP to call them. IRCC said nothing was sent to me.. Instead of improving the already faulty system they make it even more glitchy lol.. Anyways, I have a question to you folks: We now live in the UK and applied from here. However...

    Did you try calling them and asking about your SA?

    ***APRIL 2017***SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP OUTSIDE OF CANADA

    Yes, SA letter are auto-generated. They just amend personal details an dates to reflect on your case. The rest is the same for everyone. Definitely a system glitch, then. If calling brings no luck, either send Schedule A and PCC upfront as you said, or trying contacting your Sponsor's MP...

    1. I'm fairly certain there are generic. All they do is amend your details to be included. 2. How come you managed to link your application via myCIC without AOR? AOR is the very first message you get with your Application number and UCI that allows you to link your account with myCIC. As to...

    No, it doesn't need your physical signature. Just the digital (typing your full name) one.

    No, Ontario. It varies. For some it's a couple of days, for some it's way longer.
