Hi everybody, the tracking sheet has a column "Moved to Visa Office (Call IRCC after App Received in ECAS to find VO Office)"

Do people actually call IRCC to learn this? Ahead of getting confirmation where their application has been sent?

What is the value of knowing which Visa Office is processing your request?

The visa office was stated in our sponsorship approval letter which location it was sent to. In our case Warszawa, Poland. I guess if you needed to make an inquiry with the IRCC web form, you could tell them the visa office and it might make things quicker to track down your file.

When was your application received and when did you receive SA?
My file will also be transferred to Warsaw

It gets stated in a PDF in an email your spouse have received, the SA (Sponsor/Sponsorship Approval) one. It will say:
'The Application for Permanent Residence for your Relative(s) will be forwarded to the visa office in ______________ for further processing.'

The value of this is something you should add yourself... a couple examples are: 'to learn how long the process might take, if you need to attend the office for an interview (if requested) I am sure that's where you need to go since they are processing your application.'

The nearest VO for the Netherlands will either be London, UK or Vienna, Austria.

Nope. Due to covid, they are returning applications through email as well.
Based on what you know and what I see, is it safe to book for medical against Oct 30? If IRCC responds by asking for medicals to be done, say third week of October, it will be difficult to get a date in Nigeria in 2021. So we are trying to check the trend and book for Oct 30. What do you think?

Dear.... :



This refers to the Application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class you submitted to this office on behalf of ..... (if applicable).



A refund in the amount of $85.00 has been initiated. If you paid by credit card, it will be credited back to your credit card account. Otherwise, a cheque will be mailed to you at the address indicated above in approximately six weeks to eight weeks.

Is this SA? I want to confirm
