I've been following this thread for months now. My husband and I have been waiting for 20 months too. Nov 2019. I'm absolutely going crazy. We have tried everything possible and still nothing. Our profile has not been updated since May 2021. They had contacted us for residential proof in May and had told us that all our stages are done and our file is at the last VO at Ottawa for the final decision but nothing on the online profile. We had a case worker look into it too via my husband's local MP and she was told the same thing that it's pending final decision.
That was in May. It's been 2 months since then and still nothing.
We have applied for his BOWP and SOWP for me but from the look of things idk how much I can relay on that either.
My visiting visa was rejected twice under dual intent. Idk what more to do or who to turn to for help. I feel truly helpless and depressed. My career and our family has been on hold for 2 years.

It is unfortunate that your husband has not received the COPR yet . I understand the PPR for Outland during May month would have been difficult but at least his COPR should get closed so the status established.

In progress..No idea.the only thing mentioned in gcms notes “Applications cannot be finalized because of overseas dependent”
Doesn’t make sense as they are approving for people who has dependents outside Canada . Have requested an update again as if your COPR can be issued or a decision on the primary applicant should be provided . Till what date your medicals are valid ? I mean do they have at least 6 months time ? I was having 4 months left on my medical for my dependents and they asked to get it done again for them so check it out on that side as well

The only option is to again call them..which I’ll check with tomorrow again.i guess both primary and dependent medical are valid end of nov’21

We asked them to atleast issue his CoPR because his health card has expired and they refused to renew it for him unless he provides a BOWP or CoPR. IRCC agent we contacted said they can't do anything because of outland dependant. Is there any use calling them or raising another webform? They have stopped replying to us altogether since May.
