Hi everyone,

Is anyone with a spousal sponsorship application from November 2024 still waiting to hear back from the Port of Spain visa office?

We completed biometrics and medicals back in January 2025, but we haven’t received any updates since then. Just trying to get a sense of whether others are in a similar situation and what your timelines have looked like.

Any insights would be really appreciated—thanks!

We applied on November 5th, from Colombia. We are still waiting, Bio and medical were done in December and January, PA eligibility and BCG processing, the last update was on April 3rd, and they requested an updated form. No news so far, I believe our visa office is just slow (Bogota). I’m hopeful something will turn out soon.

What's your visa office?

I applied November 30th 2024 as outland but I'm already in canada so I'm landing online. I received what I think counts as P2 for online landing (verifying that I'm in canada, adding address and picture) on May 21st. I'm just waiting on ecopr now.
