Today my partner received her passport submission letter and we made an appointment in Bangalore VAC for Friday 6th February.

We got her pre-arrival letter October 2025.

She submitted her medical Jan 2026.

Congrats , and what is timeline ?

Thank you for your response, we are in same boat i think, I submitted my pr march 2023, and I got my pr card December 1st, and today I received the pre arrival for my overseas dependent, so I don't know what is the next steps and how long would be taken to get the pass request, so fingers crossed

REALLY

hello everyone, I became PR in July 2025, my spouse outland received passport request in Oct 2025, but at that moment he was inside of Canada and we requested a virtual landing but no response since then, have one of you experienced something similar ?
Thanks

This is very normal. Processing only starts when primary applicant gets approves except as part of the pilot program and there is a large backlog.

Hi. Please just wondering how your spouse was in Canada and both of you did not get landing inside Canada. Is it thst when you applied for PR, he was outland?. If so did you apply for visitor's visa and was successful?
