Hi everyone,
Is there a lot of you here happening to wait to have an interview in Trinidad ? I’m checking everyday to see if they are going to give a hint when the border will re-open

WE are. 27 months in the process so far. This is what I got back yesterday:



Good day,

Due to the ongoing pandemic all IRCC offices are operating at reduced staffing levels in Latin America and the Caribbean.


The migration office in Port of Spain is not in a position to conduct interviews at this time. All interviews must be completed with the applicant present at an IRCC office.


IRCC is constantly reviewing services that can be offered with a view of being able to resume these services as quickly as possible once conditions allow. Again, we are dealing with unprecedented circumstances and we do understand that the delays in processing of family class spousal sponsorship cases are frustrating to all those involved.



Regards

I was actually wondering - for all of us awaiting interviews...is there a piece of legislation or a policy that states that ONLY the foreign spouse is selected for an interview? Why aren't the Canadian spouses interviewed? If they are looking for the validity of the relationship, both spouses should have an equal amount of knowledge of each other and be able to answer similar questions, and if the Canadian could not (for example, had not met any friends or family or their foreign spouse) would that not be an equal red flag?

I messaged them to ask for update and they sent the medical request a few days later. They said they are working with essential staff only and can’t give an update into timeline. But at least they sent the medical request.
I sent an email as well but I have not heard anything. Medical is done everything is done just waiting on an answer now. I sent in a request for my notes a month ago and still nothing.

Oh ok.. I only got SA and notice that it’s moving to Mexico yesterday: so I assume it will be a while before I hear from Mexico. Good luck though!
