Hi Everyone,

I created this post for those whom are waiting for the Spousal Interviews.

I'm a Canadian Citizen filed for my husband's sponsorship please see our timeline:

File sent to Sydney, NS January 2019
File transferred to LVO: Oct 29,2019
AOR 2: Nov 1, 2019
ECAS status shows work started on file January 2020
Finally after long time silence we received 2 letters from LVO, ADR(asking only Post wedding communication, photos and chats) and also Interview.


I replied all the ADR on Dec 14 so far we only received ADR confirmation from LVO but nothing about interview date or time?

During pandemic is it possible to have interview anytime soon or will my ADR satisfy the Visa Officers?

Anyone in same situation? what are the updates about Interview during Covid-19 pandemic? i heard people waiting for interview since 2019...Please help me?

Thanks and Good Luck to us all.

Why did you are asked for an interview?
I ordered notes and found out that we have less chats which i think Visa Officer didn't see in my detailed explanation and travelling stamps because we are living together since we got married....There is everything explained and now we provided everything post wedding and currently i am still living with him...i am just wondering how long we all have to wait for interview? how long will it take to start interviewing applicants waiting interview during this Pandemic?

If they schedule Interview it will take 1-2 YEARS. Final nail in COFFIN.

Looks like its only me and you waiting for interview. They most likely will not waive an interview once they decided on it...very small chance.
I was supposed to have an interview today but they cancelled it citing Covid-19.
Maybe they are playing some mind games, because Covid-19 didn't start 2 weeks ago when they scheduled the interview...
Hey lets schedule a few interviews and then cancel them in the last moment, just to show we tried....that kind of game.

Its crazy....but honestly Covid is not going anywhere easily for sometime now....you know i have seen many people waiting for their interviews.....but its not possible for them to interview.....so how can we be in the list waiting too....i saw on their website that interviews and our work load has been effected badly and still effecting.....so i don't know may be if they you satisfy them with your ADR and reply to any of their concerns through ATIP notes then they will waive it as they have been doing that for some people by now...i know personally few people who got waive....Hopefully......
