Same with meAlso, the funny thing is - no updates on the tracker whatsoever. We basically received a PFL, submitted the response, got auto acknowledgements from the VO and IRCC, and the tracker be like: last updated July 11
April 2025 Outland Spousal Sponsorship
- Thread starter gentlegal
- Start date
Ohhhh
I was under the impression that PFL basically means the final stage and fast approval or refuse after the docs are submitted. Crazy
Does whatever happens in the outland VOs not reflect in the tracker?
Initially I got the sponsors approval letter from Sydney as well as all the requests for the PA, but after July there's no update.
The requests last week came from Vienna VO (PA is in Europe), but still no updates in the tracker

Good news!
It's interesting that you received this request just now - I thought most people get it right after sponsor's approval.
But back in the days it was a sign of an upcoming decision: basically "everything else has been finalized, just need the exam".
Hope it works the same way for you!!
Upd. Tracker just showed the updates. Last update is shown as today (Sept 8), and in the history I can now see
- eligibility changed to in progress
- message about additional documents sent
- our response recieved
All dated as September 3 (which is true)
Now both eligibility and BG verification are set to In Progress
Is it? I thought at this point it's just the reflection of what happened: they started reviewing eligibility, sent the PFL and received our response
I (the sponsor) am in Ontario, GTA. So the destination city is Toronto, we're planning to move closer to DT as soon as my fiance is here
when i to do redo one of forms, thank god they didn't just return the whole application, i just had to resubmit form A. But i was worried i they didn't read it, but no response is a good response lol. and things just moved along.Is it?

I'm close by (the sponsor) Also, in London. At the finish line lets get some food!!
Absolutely!
I read through the forum though, and feels like that's 100% refusal for me this time with the direction "go under spousal or common-law class".
Booked a legal marriage for November.
